monday inspiration

typical monday:  i thought i was looking all cute at work today, then the zipper to my jeans broke…good thing my top was long enough to cover.  so to help get through the day, i thought i’d start the week with a few images from my pinterest account.  enjoy!

{because we could all use some sparkle}

{paleo: check (most of the time…exception below); travel: working on it for 2012…looks good so far!}

{because i just enrolled in a classical pastries & desserts class…ahhh!!!}

{channeling my inner hippie}

here’s to a new year!


i may be a few days late in doing a New Years post, but it’s my first post of the New Year!  here are a few 2012 resolutions:

~ blog regularly:  i majored in journalism and love to write.  this year i hope to write more often about things i love…and not let gossip girl on netflix distract me.

~  run a 1/2 marathon: 13.1 miles is no run in the park, at least not for me, but i’m already 1/4 of the way there!

~ keep up with friends: i’m the world’s worst when it comes to keeping in touch.  not this year!  yes, i had 11 bridesmaids…i love them all dearly.

i’m also looking forward to a some exciting happenings this year:

~ new puppy!  i was reluctant when the hus wanted a new dog.  how could i love another one as much as i love axel?  –see below– but our new puppy was born christmas day (sign? god send?) and we’ll get her at the end of february.  can’t wait to snuggle up!

~ NYC baby!  my mother-in-law, sister-in-law and i are taking a girls’ trip to nyc in february.  i haven’t been since i was 18.  and the best part of all…we’ll be there during NYFW!  are you freaking kidding me?!!  think we can sneak into a show?

~ honeymoon!  yes, i’ve been married for over a year now.  we got married in the fall and the hus is a teacher, so we couldn’t exactly run off to a remote destination at the beginning of the school year.  so we’re finally taking a eurotrip honeymoon vacay this summer.

what are you looking forward to?   here’s to a new year.  cheers, all!

xx, candy
