1. Yesterday was a fabulous day. Every year, I try to take a day off from work around my birthday so I can have a bit of a “me” day. I was a couple of weeks behind schedule, but it was totally worth the wait. Highlights included in semi-sleeping in (until just before 7am), a quiet breakfast at home, a mid-morning PiYo workout, a late morning deep tissue massage…
A post-massage trip to Trader Joe’s…
A little salad action, courtesy of the Trader himself (this one was good but seriously lacking in chicken)…
An afternoon pedicure + iced coffee from Dunkin’…
And the rest of my afternoon and evening spent with my favorite little guy in the whole entire world.
He recently re-discovered his Boppy pillow and is sort of obsessed with it right now. Right along with lining up his cars and “counting” them…
It was a wonderful day, to say the least, and I’m now pretty sure that this is the longest fun fact ever on record.
2. I was *this close* to impulse buying a spiral vegetable slicer yesterday. I feel like every time I turn around lately, I’m seeing all of these beautiful, yummy looking “noodles” made from veggies and I kinda want to try this thing out! I almost bought this one, but it seems a little large(?). Do any of you own a spiralizer? Have any recommendations on a good one (or if it’s even worth buying)?
3. We’re huge fans of Bath and Body Works soaps over here. I bought this Crisp Morning Air scent a while back but just opened it recently, and I am in LOVE with it.
Unfortunately, when I checked out their site, it doesn’t look like it’s available anymore (bought it a couple of months ago) but it does look like they have some amazing spring scents available and they’re having some great sales right now, too!
4. Have you guys noticed a lack of “fashion” posts lately? Yeah, well that’s due to the fact that our (already crappy) full-length mirror ended up falling and shattering all over our bedroom floor a couple of weeks ago. Yes, that was a fun morning. Note to self: go pick up a new mirror this weekend.
5. While at home on Monday on our “snow day,” I discovered that Lucas apparently has more skills than I realized…
I left the room for less than a minute to grab his milk from the kitchen and start hearing “Maaaa! Maaaa!” so I come in to see this. Ayyy yi yi.
6. While on my typical lunch hour Target trip earlier this week, I ended up purchasing a couple new tops for myself. I bought this one (in blue), for something that could work with both dress pants or jeans, and this one (in peach) as a casual sweater that could be dressed up or down. I am so in love with both of them that I seriously want to buy each of them in every single color. Loooooove!
7. Get this…there’s a guy that makes BBQ Bacon Sushi. While I eat all of the items within the sushi, I still can’t decide how I feel about it. Even though I’m sure it’s probably more delicious than I’d ever imagine. What do ya think…would you try it??
8. I can’t tell you how many random photos I wind up finding on my phone like this one…
And I’ll give you one hint…I’m not the one taking them. 
9. I have been on a serious PiYo kick this week.
Yesterday I did the “Drench” video and, seriously, she’s not kidding…
It’s the longest video (I believe) at just under 50 minutes and, wow. Just…wow. Love it.
10. Earlier this week (or maybe it was last week?) I came across this article on Huffington Post and loved it: 10 ‘Lame’ Things That Are Awesome When You’re An Adult. Especially 2, 4, and 5. Anyone else??
Alright, my friends. That’s all I’ve got for you today! I hope you all have a fabulous weekend (whether you’re celebrating Valentine’s Day or not) and for those of you fellow northerners…stay warm!
