While out car shopping the other day (yes, car shopping as in I might-be-buying-a-new-car-but-let's-not-get-too-excited-in-case-it-doesn't-pan-out-shopping), husband and I stopped in at Bridgehead for a hot beverage.  Of course I couldn't resist the date squares (hubs got a ginger cookie and a chocolate chip/pecan cookie), although I almost went for the chocolate-pecan square.  I have a serious sweet tooth!

Have you seen this Yigal Azrouel New York 'Washed Leather Jacket' before?  I thought I had died and went to heaven until I saw the hefty $875 price tag... to which I realized I was in quite the opposite of heaven.  A truly covet-able piece.

 I have this thing I do when getting dressed in the mornings.  First, if I can't find anything to wear, I rip apart my three closets throwing clothes all over the floor or any piece of furniture that has a flat surface.  I then consider I should just wear all black, but before admitting defeat, I pull more clothes out, try them on before discarding them to the floor (aka the black hole) and becoming more frantic.  Finally, when I'm about 20 minutes late for work, I go back to the idea of pulling strictly black pieces from the closets, quickly steam them and run out the door.  Then again, there are always the days when I just want to wear all black and make it to work early.  Wait.  Make it to work early?  Who am I kidding, that doesn't happen.


Have you used Groupon before?  There are many different companies teaming up and offering great deals at their restaurants, stores and spas (and more).  A few months ago I got my daily email notification letting me know what the day's Groupon was and it was a $50 American Apparel gift card for $25!  I quickly forwarded the email to my sister (we both love AA) and snatched one up for myself.  Of course I sat on it for months and with just one week till it expires, I finally got my butt in gear and made some purchases.  I picked up the double-u dress in white (which I have in green) and the shiny ruched front tube bra in silver (I have to be honest though and say I was interested in this but they didn't have any).  Both of which are with me in Florida as we speak.

We went out to breakfast on the weekend to one of our regular spots (Cora's) and had a delicious breakfast (and by breakfast I pretty much mean breakfast food at lunch because we like to sleep in and didn't get there till after noon). Sometimes I don't like going to Cora's because the service can be so-so and the food isn't always hot, however, the selection of food is excellent (when it's hot) and this time in particular we had the sweetest woman as our server which made the experience that much better.  I had the two egg breakfast (with bacon, hash-browns and toast) and then treated myself to a chocolate-banana crepe afterwards (so yummy).  Sometimes I get it, sometimes I don't, but it's always very nostalgic when I do because husband ordered one for us when we first started dating after we were done eating our breakfast.  I thought it was kind of strange getting 'dessert' after breakfast but soon learned it was far from strange and strictly awesomeness.

 Random fact:  I don't really drink coffee but love the coffee here.  So much so that I had three cups.  Three.
