Prada

This is Prada. My co-worker has been brining her in and she is now the official office stress reliever.



Who could resist a face like that?!

I've been tagged!

Jamie, of Pretty Ditty, has tagged me. I love her aprons (I have 3)!!

Rules:
1. Link to your tagger and list these rules on your blog.
2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.
3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blog.
4. Let them know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

7 facts about me:

  1. I’ve never been tagged before. I’ve only been blogging for about 2 months now, so please excuse any blogging rules or etiquettes that I may not be aware of. =)
  2. This is my newest toy and I’m obsessed with it. I’ve made so many of these that I don’t know what I’m going to do with them all.
  3. I religiously watch House and now think that I can self-diagnose all my illnesses.
  4. I love my new boots, which I have in both black and brown. I also have basically this same boot, just shorter, in dark brown and red.
  5. Chococat is my favorite character/icon/knick-knack. Sanrio makes the best pens, I take them to work… no one steals a pen with a big cat head on it.
  6. Greg and I have been married for 5 ½ years. We got married in Rome, Italy. We keep talking about going back.
  7. I secretly think I’m going to win the lottery one day (now I just have to start buying tickets!).

Chocolate Chip Cookies

I find that I bake a lot more during the fall and winter. The smells, the warmth from the oven, the yummy goodies. I made these last night...
I love my measuring cups from Anthropologie. They were a gift, and I think they are so cute!
This is my go to cookie. Always come out great and so easy. Also, I can get the recipe right off the back of the chocolate chips!
I think the bigger ones tastes better than the smaller ones, partly because they’re a little under-baked in the centers and are ooey gooey yummy – especially when warm.
These will help get me through the upcoming work week =).

Salmon Days




Some pictures from Salmon Days today.

Sweaters and Salmon

I can't believe its October already. Today was a "real" fall day - rainy, cooler and gray. I'm looking forward to wearing my coats and sweaters. As I was getting ready this morning I dug out my container of winter clothes and I remembered this post that I read earlier this week and wished I could knit.

This weekend we're going to Salmon Days. We go every year, it's a tradition for us. It never fails, the weekend of Salmon Days seems like the coldest, wettest weekend of the month. But it's still worth it.

I'm getting an error when trying to upload pictures, so instead, these are some things I've been looking at this week:
- This bird that I found by reading this.
- This bunny that I first saw here.
- This calendar that I can't remember how I found.
- This group that was introduced to me here.
- And lastly... this day, which is tomorrow.

Hope you have a great weekend!
