I’m currently in love with…


Sources: Left Center Right Game, Chinese Air Lantern,
Granny z’s Mint Iced Tea, Young House Love Book, Zesty Garden Mix

1. Young House Love Book – I received my copy of the book last weekend and it is full of inspiration. They did a fantastic job on their first book and I can’t wait to see what they have in store for book #2. (They got a two book deal) Travis & I are planning on going to Washington D.C. for their December 1st book signing and just making a day of it in the city by doing some sight-seeing.
2. Left Right Center Game – Last week I played this game with my two Uncle’s and Travis; we had a blast! We played with quarters, and I cleaned house! Such a great game to play while you’re drinking, but it does get a little rowdy.
3. Vlasic Zesty Garden Mix – I’m addicted to this stuff. I went through an entire jar, in a week, by myself. It’s just too delicious and hot. I just wished they’d put less pickles in the mix, and put more cauliflower, carrots and onions in.
4. Granny Z’s Mint Iced Tea Wine – You might remember me talking about this wine a few weeks back. IT IS AMAZING! The best wine I’ve ever had. Travis’ Mom even loves it, so much that she bought an entire case of the stuff (that’s 12 bottles worth!). We had her pick us up two bottles as well. We are so anxious to get our hands on them!
5. Chinese Air Lanterns – While camping over Halloween, someone was setting these off in the sky. Some people started freaking out, thinking that they are ufo’s (cough, Junior…) but they are actually tiny little hot air balloons with a candle inside. Now everyone wants to set them off next summer at one of our camping trips.

What are you loving this month? One thing that I didn’t add to the list is the election. I’m SOOO glad it’s over. All of the political signs and commercials were driving me nuts. America has finally spoken.

I’m Currently In Love With…


Sources: Snapple Peach Tea, Chefville, Patriot’s Jersey, Florida, Walking Dead, Wire Wrap.

1. Custom wire wraps by Dub Designs – One of my really good friends from high school now makes these awesome one of a kind, custom wire wrap pieces. You can check out his artwork here. My favorite piece so far of his, is that sea turtle above, and he is currently working on a seahorse that I can’t wait to see. Here are some other pieces of his that I love: a huge green stone, and this awesome black stone ring. You can also follow him on Instagram at “designsbythedub” where you can see cool rings like this.

2. Florida Vacation – I leave on vacation on Friday! I’m super excited. I’ll give you all the low down on Friday morning, and let you know when I’ll be returning.

3. Diet Snapple Peach Tea Drink Packets – I’m a big Snapple fan, so when I found these drink packets for your water, I had to pick them up. Peach Tea is my all time favorite, so I’ve been drinking these suckers like they are going out of style.

4. Walking Dead – I love Zombies, so it’s no surprise that I love the Walking Dead, and it returns this month! On October 14th! As horrible as it sounds, I hope Lori and her son kick the bucket this season. & Glenn and Daryl better stay alive.

5. Chefville Zygna Facebook Game – I’ve been addicted to this game for the past month. I haven’t played those facebook games in a long time, but the one day while I was logging in, I saw a button for Chefville. I was bored, so I clicked it and now I’m addicted. The game is only 3 – 4 months old, so it’s still in progress, but I’m having a fun time playing with the decor of my restaurant. I have a garden theme going on. :)

6. Jersey & Game Days – Every day that the New England Patriots play, Travis & I wear our jerseys all day long. So, whenever I wake up on Saturday or Sunday, the first thing I saw while jumping out of bed is “Jersey Day!”. I have a pink Brady jersey right now and Travis has an actual Patriots jersey, but we both want to get away jerseys. We just like the white.

What are you loving for the month of October?

I’m Currently In Love With…

& I’m back. I took a longer break from the blog then just the normal Labor Day break. If you follow me on Instagram, you probably already know why, but for those that don’t here is a little break-down of the events that took place. I have two rules while drinking: 1. No Vodka, 2. No Shots. I didn’t break just one of those rules, I broke both. If your name is Larry, I blame you. ;) Basically, I ended up drinking way too much, rupturing a blood vessel in my throat, and going to the emergency room at 2AM. Walked out at 6AM with plenty of fluids in me, and told to see a Gastroenterologist for acid reflux and a cardiologist for heart palpitations. So drinking too much vodka, was kind of a blessing in disguise, health-wise. I kept putting off the heart & acid-reflux thing, but the doctor gave me a kick in the pants that I needed. I did end up coming down with a sinus infection though, so the blog will probably be quiet for the rest of the week. But since I can’t post most of the pictures from the weekend for the weekend wrap-up because of their nature (besides the ones you’ve already seen on Instagram) here is a currently loving:



Sources: Jeremiah Weed, Big Bang Theory, New Girl, How I Met Your Mother, Chevy Truck, Logo Quiz, Scarf, Fall

1. Fall Season TV Shows – One of the best things about fall is the tv shows. All of my favorites are coming back this month, all in the same week and I couldn’t be more excited. HIMYM – September 24th, New Girl – September 25th & The Big Bang Theory – September 27th. If you don’t watch these shows already, I highly suggest that you do!
2. Jeremiah Weed – This stuff is pretty freaking tasty and it’s cheaper than Mike’s Hard Lemonade. It comes in three flavors… cola, tea and lemonade.
3. Logo Quiz App – I’ve been playing this game on my phone since I’ve been under the weather lately, and it’s pretty addicting and really makes you think. It gives you a bunch of company logos, and you have to type in who it’s for. I haven’t been able to beat any levels yet, but I’m getting there. Some of them are so challenging.
4. Chevy Silverado – As most of you many know, we’ve been looking for a truck since Travis’ car caught on fire a few weeks ago. Travis has his eye on one just like this one, and I’m hoping that he gets it. We’ve been riding around in his Mom’s Tahoe lately, and it’s so nice to have such a big vehicle.
5. Scarfs – I’ve never been a scarf person, but this year I’m all into them. I even have this exact scarf and I’m ready for the cold weather to come so I can bust it out.
6. Fall! – I am so anxious for the fall weather to come, and for the leaves to change. I’m completely over the summertime now, give me hoodie weather!

What are you loving lately?
