What To Do (Outfit 12 & 13)

by //

OK, so at the beginning of the challenge I ordered 2 things online and was going to incorporate them in my 30/30. Well, they came in the mail and I actually hated them both. Seriously. Now I have this stinking dilema on weather to keep it at 28, or try and figure out which 2 items I should have incorporated in my mix and wear those instead. What do you think?

I asked my friend Gertrude to do the challenge with me and she said she likes wearing lots of layers too much during this time of year and so our challenge to each other became for me to wear as few items as possible and her to wear as many items as possible. Ha ha! I’m feeling pretty good about what I’ve worn so far. So I kind of want to see how few I can get by with. But I also have a hankerin’ to wear some other stuff. This denim shirt, for example, I could wear everyday, but I think you’d get bored with it. Unless I should try to wear it everyday and see how many ways I can actually style it! Ha ha!

Time to Travel (Outfit 10)

by //

Today Bob and I talked about our freedom. (Not the kind we have because we live in America, although that is AMAZING.) But the kind we have now. Both working from home, no kids, etc. And we wonder how we can better take advantage of it. When I first quit my job I was aching for a road trip, but we didn’t do it. Why not? I am not sure.

So now we’re talking about all the places we want to go! Fly south for the winter, spend a month or two in Italy eating their yummy food, visiting family, visiting other bloggers :), etc.

Do you have any suggestions? Where are some great places to visit?

Favorite Food (Outfit 9)

by //

I am the kind of girl that once I like something, I don’t want anything else. Whether it’s a new shirt, a person, or a meal. Then, after a while, I get really sick of it. (I don’t think this rule applies to people tho.) I ate Honey Nut Cheerios everyday for about 3 years and I never want to have them again.

Do you do this?

Anyway, my current favorite meal is sauteed yellow squash and zucchini. Just cook it up in a pan with a little butter and a bunch of salt and pepper and you’re good to go! Sometimes I’ll even throw spinach in it.

What is your current go-to meal?
