Fill In The Blank & A Few Little Things...

1. Today is a good day because the weekend is almost here!

2. The best thing I did all week was go through my dressers and get rid of stuff.

3. The current weather is slushy and it makes me feel like a block of ice .

4. The best thing about spring is the pretty colors!

5. A fashion trend that I'm dying to try out for spring is neon, color blocking, skinny colored denim.

6. A person who made me smile this week was my nephew. He is so stinking cute! Watching him eat a cookie with chocolate all over his face was pretty entertaining.

How can you see this and not smile?

7. The most delicious thing I ate all week was my mom made chili and cornbread. That was delish for a rainy and cold day. I also had a slice of lemon sour cream pie from the local bakery and it was awesome.

Did I mention I have a thing for owls?
LOVE THEM!

EARRINGS!!
And cupcakes.
It's a problem.
Icing is my weakness.

Go Niners!

Niners beat the Saints!

That game was cray-cray everyone. Almost too intense to watch.

But the boys came through. I think it was because of me.

I went all out with the color coordination.

Red and Tan!

And even J.R. my pillow pet came along to the viewing/pizza party to show his support.

His name is now J.R. Davis in honor of Vernon, my new fave player and MVP.

Next up, they gotta beat the Packers. It's gonna be tough, but they can do it!

GO NINERS!



Other than that I plan on spending what's left of the weekend trying to tackle the enormous ongoing project of getting my disaster of a room organized and cleaned. I hauled one huge bag of clothes to the thrift store a few weeks ago and I've almost got another one filled.
I really hang on to stuff for too long.
Story of my life.
I'm getting better but it's a process.

I always feel better after I simplify, it's just hard for me in the moment to get rid of things.

My goal is get this done this weekend, by tomorrow. I have put it off long enough.
There will be a lot of coffee in my future.
Speaking of...

I made this New York Crumb Cake to enjoy with a cup of joe.

I've come to realize I'm not that good of a baker.
I can make a few things pretty well, but trying new things doesn't ever really work out or turn out the right way.
I also think I don't really like unsalted butter. Every time I use it I think that.
Is it ok to use salted instead even if the recipe calls for unsalted?
Any great bakers out there with some insight?
Sprinkling the powdered sugar on was the best part- besides licking the beater.
Side note: I made a HUGE mess in my kitchen.

Well I'm off to get prepared for my huge cleaning day tomorrow.
I hope I get it done before the Golden Globes so I can watch without feeling guilty.


I'll be back tomorrow with my picks for best dressed!

Nails!

I am in LOVE with my new nail polish combination. It's the perfect shade of gray especially if you want a matte color...it only takes 1-2 coats to look great, dries evenly and quickly too (plus the names are super fun!) I will definitely be repeating this one.
