First year of Seminary? Check.
Primarily, this means two things: One, for the next 99 days, there will be no quizzes, no research papers, and no 100-page reading assignments to grace the presence of my thoughts; and two, there will be a significant increase in my blogging time. So, stay tuned for health news, summer goals, and personal reflections.
To kick things off, I'd like to present to you the 5 things I'm loving right now. Perhaps you can enjoy them with me.
5 Things I'm Loving Right Now
Kitchenaid Mixer
Why? It really is worth its weight in gold. I've used many mixers in my life, but this is by far the best. In fact, sometimes I bake something sweet just to use my mixer. Crazy? Perhaps.
Jergens Natural Glow Moisturizer
Why? This lovely lotion costs about $6, and it really, truly doesn't turn your skin orange. Because I have not been able to enjoy the luxury of ample free time all semester, my skin is about two shades of pale lighter than I had hoped. Until my fortunes improve, this nifty little bottle keeps my skin glowing in the sun and not in the dark.
Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge
Why? Okay, this is less than a "what" and more of a "who" I'm loving. Not only did Kate look cool, calm, and completely gorgeous on her big day, but she was photographed one week later at a public supermarket...pushing a buggy...and buying her own groceries. A few days ago, I saw a 20-something year old woman in a Range Rover waiting on her groceries to be delivered to her vehicle in front of Harris Teeter. Really? The newest member of England's royal family is humble enough to do it herself - perhaps you should follow in suit.
The Color Orange
Why? Why not? This color is happy, it's unique...it's summer! Orange tunics, orange dresses, orange swimsuits, orange purses...I love it all. I'm loving the color so much, I even bought orange lilies to pot on my front porch.
Running
Why? Because it's good for you! To be fair, this is a new thing for me, and we still have a bit of a love-hate relationship. Nevertheless, nothing can replace quality cardio, and I've been feeling pretty adventurous since my hips have improved. More details on my new found relationship with running to come soon.
I want one of those mixers so bad! They have one of the sort of seafoam green color which is the accent color in our kitchen! I'm all about the crisp, clean, and a little vintage look so I feel like I just have to have it. My husband is going to cave soon I think, ha. And about Kate..I watched her biography and I really am in love with her too! She reminds me so much of altruistic and humble Diana, trying to expose the boys to life outside of the palace bubble. Very nice! I didn't know you had a blog, but I hope you post more! I love following people I haven't seen in a long time :) Hope all is well!
