What a fun and busy day I've had! This morning I woke up at around 9:30 and quickly drove over to Starbucks to get my H and I some breakfast and coffees (we had a long day head of us so we needed sustenance!) BTW, my Starbucks breakfast pick is a tall Skinny Vanilla Latte and an egg white, spinach and feta wrap. Yum! After eating our delish ...
Kiehl’s Kicks-Off New Campaign: Houston Store Event Tomorrow (May 14th)
This weekend, Kiehl’s will embark on a partnership with Share Our Strength, a national nonprofit that is ending childhood hunger in America by connecting children with nutritious food they need to lead healthy, active lives. Houston residents will be able to participate at Kiehl’s at Highland Village store, so I thought I’d share this info for ...
OOTD: Lucky Green Dress (Target)
Just a very quick outfit post for today. I wore the green dress I bought at Target over the weekend today and I quite liked it. This one's a size small and be warned---the dress fits a little large. I couldn't even fill out the chest area on a size small. The Mossimo® Women's Pleated Zip Back Dress in Jade retails for $24.99 at Target. Buy ...
Celebrating our Second Wedding Anniversary
Today is our second wedding anniversary! We spent Sunday (yesterday) at Hotel ZaZa, starting our day off with a brunch at their Monarch restaurant, followed by a few hours at the pool and massages at ZaSpa. It was such a relaxing day. I felt bad for my masseuse because he said I have so much tension in my neck and shoulders that ...
Doing Good: the Fresh Air Fund gives a child a fresh & healthy summer
One of my readers, Sara, emailed me about this program and I wanted to share it will all of you in case it's something you, a family member or friend may be interested in. I think it's a wonderful cause and could be a very fulfilling experience for a child in need and for your own family. More info about the organization & mission: The Summer ...
Weekend Shopping: Mini Haul from Target & More
Happy Saturday ladies! Today was a busy day full of errands and then we had dinner at Benjy's with H's lovely parents to celebrate Mother's Day since we will be celebrating our anniversary tomorrow (brunch, pool and massages, here we come!) I picked up a couple of things last weekend and today so I thought I'd share really quickly. These ...
OOTD: The (Hot) Pink Skirt
It's nearly nine at night and I'm still awake after a grueling workout. It was one of those workouts that you almost didn't think you'd ever be able to finish without (gross) vomiting, but at the end of the workout I felt great (and I definitely ate some delicious dinner from Zoe's Kitchen which was awesome). I'm really enjoying the extra time my H ...
OOTD: Back to Navy
I did a 6 a.m. workout this morning so tonight, I'm busy playing catch-up with all of the other blogs I have to write. I know I've said this like a thousand times, but I have felt really busy lately! I think there are more events and parties in the spring and summer time and that causes life to get busy and leaves less time for blogging ...
OOTD: Touches of Gold & Latisse Update
Oh Monday. I say "Oh Monday" because I have just felt very yucky today. I hate when I feel icky on Monday because it doesn't set a good tone for the week, but there's not much I can do. I did still make my workout today---my H started to take class with me too which is awesome. I had to stop a few times between circuits to breathe it out ...
William & Kate: The Royal Wedding Thoughts & Photos
It's Sunday afternoon and I've been cleaning my house all day and went grocery shopping with the husband. I have some time now to collect all of my thoughts on the Royal Wedding and have been looking forward to writing this post. Let's go back in time first, to December 2010. My husband and I were in London and though we had just a few ...
