One Sip Closer To Spring

Good Eating , Personal , Random • Apr 27, 2014

I know .. I know .. cheesy title. I’m still loving it! I have found this BEAUTIFUL spring blend of coffee from STARBUCKS. I have to admit that I buy the majority (basically all) of my coffee from my partners sister. She has a coffee/tea/wine company that has an awesome selection of goodies.

Anyway (not to self .. stop rambling) i was browsing the halls of TARGET when i came across this gem. I had previously had Target brand coffee in the flavor of Carrot Cake. G – R – O – S – S. Honestly, it was gross. I was looking for something new that would get me through that lull between my monthly coffee delivery and my need for that daily cup (or 3) of coffee.

It may be 5:00PM but why not enjoy a cup now?! That sun is out, birds are going, and i need to mow the yard. Perfect time! BTW – me needing to mow the yard means it’s summer. I enjoy mowing but we have had a crappy mower and it just hasn’t worked out for me. Became more of a chore.

Anyway (again .. rambling) so far i’m really enjoying the taste. I don’t understand why they say it “tastes like spring” but whatever. I’m enjoying it! Any springtime favorites you are starting to enjoy?

Our master blenders offer their expression of spring in this lively, remarkably balanced coffee. Combining exquisite beans from Latin America and East Africa reveals spirited, juicy notes and medium body. Created to perfectly pair with buttery shortbread and early harvest berries—a love poem to the season of renewal.

Balancing

Business , Personal , Random • Apr 26, 2014

Everything in life is simply one big BALANCING ACT. I feel like i’m constantly trying to balance everything that goes on in my life. Personal items, work items, and all of those items that feel in between the two. Bills to pay, websites to update, events to attend, contests to create, and a large home to clean and care for.

Initially as I write this i’m feeling a bit like i’m complaining (thats what I started out intending to do.. honestly) but i’m truly not. I’m speaking truth. To be successful in anything that you do it’s all about the balancing. Some people call it multi-tasking or prioritizing but lets be honest your balancing. Juggling multiple events and activities is what makes you look and appear like you know what you are doing.

My new position not new position as an Administrative Assistant within my organization has spent the last two months putting me to this realization. I am loving this new position and all the benefits/perks that go along with it but it’s been a bit more of a challenge than I honestly was expecting it be. I would say it’s a challenge that i handle well and i’m loving! I work for a large back and get the pleasure of supporting 3 managers. I’m always on my toes!

How do YOU balance?

99 Questions No One Asks

Random • Jan 26, 2014

So i’ve had this list for a little while. I got it from Leander @ Blog On The DList. I thought it was different than a lot of the random surveys. I also found a 2013 one I might consider. Enjoy! And don’t judge, haha.

1. Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed?

The room that we sleep in I believe generally has the closet doors open but my room (where my clothes are) the door is generally closed.

2. Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotel?

OMG, sometimes! My partner generally gets pretty upset but I feel like i’m paying for all of this free crap!

3. Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out?

Tucked in i guess, lol. I mean they are tucked in each day but then you have to sleep in them!

4. Have you ever stolen a street sign before?

Actually YES! Growing up we had some random street close to us. A friend of a friend had that last name!
