Simplify

The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.

-Hans Hofman

This has been my quote for the past weekend. Matt and I are doing a total overhaul on our bedroom. So far we have sanded, primed and painted all of our bedroom furniture. It is now arranged exactly to our liking.

Up next is painting the room and decorating.. YAY!!

Scrabble

Matt and I LOVE Scrabble. When we first started dating we would spend days playing the game. No joke. We would wake up at 10am and play until midnight.

I think these pillows belong in our home.

Books and Movies

Does anyone else LOVE their library?

I'm am the Queen of the 'Hold' at the library. I go online, select my books and I'm in and out of their in about 2 minutes. It's frickin' sah-weet!

Also, todays Groupon Rocks! It is movie tickets from Fandango. Only $4 and you can buy multiples. Matt and I were just talking about seeing the Hangover 2. Hello $8 tickets for 2!

Favorite Jobs

I was just wondering. What was your favorite job of all time?
I love my job now. Duh! Spa treatments and hotel stays. :)
But my all time favorite was when I worked at a golf course in Michigan during college. I drove the beverage cart for about 3 years.
I worked with my friends, made great money and got tan. I really miss wearing a uniform. Now its a challenge every morning to mix up the wardrobe. Oh the Glory Days of khaki pants/shorts, polo shirt and tennis shoes.

Everything Fabulous

Small Weekend Recap

Good morning ladies!

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend. Mine was very relaxing. I spent Saturday on Sullivans Island with my friend Amber and Sunday with Matt putzing around the house.

Yay it is Friday

This is the scene I left this morning while leaving for work. I really just wanted to crawl back in bed. Matt gets to work out of the house... LUCKY DUCK!

Hope y'all have a wonderful and snuggle filled weekend!

Lady that Lunches

On any typical day off of mine, this is my usual lunch. It consist of a big salad with grilled chicken, veggies, chickpeas, almonds and loaded with other veggies/fruit. I LOVE TOPPINGS.

My go to dressing is very simple. In a Tupperware bowl add 1-2 cloves finely chopped garlic, 1/4 Cup balsamic vinegar, splash of olive oil and a teaspoon of sugar. Put the lid on and shake it like a Polaroid picture. So good and last for about a week in the fridge.

What is your go to lunch?

Little Nuggets

Here are some nuggets from my day yesterday:


Look who called the Spa

A Guard Dog on Queen Street

I see this man about twice a week carrying his cross up and down Highway 17 and even downtown. I decided to google him and this is what I found about Mr. John Mengarelli. Article 1 and Article 2 .

Came home from work and found these waiting for me from my friend Jordan. She is a very talented artist and one of the funniest people I know. So thoughtful!

Hello Saturday

Day Trip to Myrtle Beach

Yesterday Matt and I took a little road trip to Myrtle Beach


Lunch in Garden City- Garlic & Herb Crab Claws at Gulf Stream Cafe

View from the restaurant

The main reason we went up to MB was to go to Anthropologie to return the dress Matt got me for my birthday

Like everyone else, I LOVE this store.

Next up we went to a Golf Store so Matt could have some fun. I found a Head Cover that looks like Scout.

Of course this is where I hung out while Matt was looking around.

What are your favorite Day Trips?

My Weekend

I enjoyed my"Weekend" on Wednesday and Thursday this week. Overall it was both productive and relaxing. Besides the normal housework stuff, I made time for some Old Fashion Fun.

Took Scout to the Dog park.. She loves to RUN

Shaking off

Wet Skeeter post bath

Today I hung out with my friend Cynthia. It was perfect! Mojitos, pool-side book reading, nachos, giggles and just straight chilling.

Cynthia lives on the Isle of Palms. Her dad also lives on the Island and we spent some time at his GORGEOUS house today.









We then went on a little Joy Ride in the Golf Cart

Leaving Island Time... Back to the real world.

Lizard Hunter

Scout The Lizard Hunter

This is how Scout has been spending her days lately. Watching the lizards climb over our sliding glass door.

I'm just praying she doesn't ever go outside and catch one. I would definitely freak. YUCK!

I wish I got a pic of her jumping. It's pretty hilarious if I do say so myself.

Color Wars

I've been thinking about Paint Colors lately. Though stereotypical, I do believe this is how most Women vs. Men see the color wheel.
