- I was talking to Stevie’s therapist about games where he throws and mentioned that “I can’t handle balls flying at my face”. It took everything I had, but I kept it together and didn’t laugh!
- Our neighbors were coming in the elevator with us and I didn’t want them to know we were eating McDonald’s for lunch, so I shoved the bag of food in my purse. I learned while it’s easy to hide the food, you can never hide the smell. Busted!
- I’ve gradually switched over my patio garden to almost all succulents. It makes me feel like I’m really good at gardening because they can survive pretty much anything.
- I spend a lot of time wishing Felicity was on Netflix.
- Listen, I don’t judge. Well I do sometimes. I’m sorry, I just really don’t like TOMS. Nothing personal. I’m sure some people would just as quickly veto my Birks, not to mention the Tevas I’ve had my eye on. Tevas! What! Why!

Hello! I found you via Un-Fancy and love your style & blog. And bought the Aldo booties on your recommendation – thanks – they make me feel like an almost-hip mom! Now I would love your advice on Birks… I’ve never owned them, and just ordered the cute silver Gizeh style. They feel kind of stiff and awkward! And that’s quite an investment for shoes that feel stiff. Is that how they’re supposed to work?
Ah yes! The Gizeh! I have those as well and they were REALLY stiff when I first bought them, so stiff that I hardly wore them at all the first year. It’s all about breaking them in though. If you can get through the first little while, then by summer, they will practically be formed to your feet! Or you could always exchange for the classic style in a suede. Those are softer from the get-go. Good luck! 🙂
With you on the TOMS, just don’t care for the style and think it’s a marketing ploy more than anything. However, for kids in need, these shoes are pretty cool! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3042220/A-shoe-GROWS-Sandal-expands-five-sizes-spell-end-spending-fortune-children-s-footwear.html
I’ve hid that I was eating McDonalds from my HUSBAND! Like hid it inside another bag in the outside trash. Oh the shame 😉
Felicity is on Hulu. Scott Speedman was just as delicious as I remembered! What camp were you: Ben or Noel? Binged watched the all the seasons over the course of a few weeks. I was interesting to view it from my 40 year old self this time!
oh I loved Noel, but they were both so cute! <3
Please, oh please, wear your tevas with white socks. Preferably ones that cover half your calves
only for you Jacquelyn!!!
