Monday. Again. Why is January almost over already? Why haven’t I posted any Valentine’s Day recipes yet? Why does time seem to be moving in hyper-speed? Why can’t I find a nail polish color that suits January?
So many questions.
1. I found an amazing new coffee shop that is actually in my zip code and had a bangin’ micro-roasted toffee nut latte that was so so so so so SO great. Starbucks beware. That vanilla spiced latte you gave me last week was a major letdown and Lily Bean Coffee was … the opposite of a letdown. It was awesome.
2. Chad watched Pitch Perfect with me on Saturday night. And I just published that little fact on the internet for all of my invisible friends to read.
Also, Rebel Wilson needs to be my friend in real life.
3. I’ve asked you guys to share funny stuff — Manic Monday contributions! This is from Rachael. And considering my recent calorie-counting efforts, it felt appropriate.
4. I think I spent a great deal of time stressing about Andrew’s “date” for no reason. As predicted, the 12-year-old fancy has fizzled out. I think Andrew was kind of bummed because I think it was more her being flighty than him, but I explained that girls are basically off their rockers until they turn 20, give or take some years, so not to worry. He laughed at me. So I guess he’s fine.
5. Every food blog I’ve read lately is offering super cool giveaways. But I can’t seem to win anything. I think I may have used all my winner’s luck up on a $1 scratch-off ticket a couple of years ago…? I would like to give you guys cool things!!! So here’s the deal: If you can help me get Sugar Dish Me’s Facebook Fan Page to over 100 “Likes” then I will put together a giveaway of something. Annnnnd if I can’t get over 100, then I’ll just give something to myself.
6. Ummm… Norma Jean. Why.
7. Skinny Cow Ice Cream Sandwiches are my favorite part of the day.
Love these pictures! Especially the baby..if looks could kill! Leave the FB page thing with me, I’ll post your link on my page right now

I need a like button in my comment box… you YOU! And Nickki. So I think I should probably work on putting together a giveaway… yay!
OH MY GOD – Guess what arrived in my postbox today?! Sod Manic monday, Marvellous Mail Monday instead over here! Thank you so much! I love it – I was so excited about the sweetTarts and the chocolate, although the logo on the chocolates reminded me of Dove the beauty products, so I tasted them with some trepidation (I was immediately won over!) and the card is so lovely too – after a VERY long Monday, this was so great to get home to!!
As for Manic monday, I’m being topical…http://www.buzzfeed.com/h2/shhp/hbo/10-mistakes-girls-always-regret-the-morning-after-587n
Bahahahaha @ chad watching Pitch Perfect (I have just looked it up on imdb since I had no clue what it was…then realised why!)
Hope Andrew’s bouncing back (sure he will – 12 year olds are made of pretty tough stuff and he has a cookie queen for a mum so, he’ll be all good I reckon!)
As for norma Jean this week… “If I can just get to the shops, those new boots are all mine…MINE!!”
thepinkrachael recently posted…Call Me…
Ohhh good! I was getting worried that it wasn’t going to get there. The post office was super crazy and required 100 forms to mail candy to Spain and I was afraid it wouldn’t get there. Read the insides of the Dove wrappers. They’re the best part.That is the PERFECT quote for Norma Jean. And that movie— it was actually good; Rebel Wilson is infinitely funny in everything. She totally made the whole movie for me.
I LOVED opening them and finding those little messages – I’m going to keep them for my journalling to use as prompts when I’m stuck! sounds like a n ightmare trying to get them posted, but they have totally made my week
I don’t know Rebel Wilson at all, but I might well give this a watch on a hungover sunday (that’s the only time I can think about it – what a film snob! I can’t help it!!)
thepinkrachael recently posted…Call Me…
Hahaha I can be kind of a film snob, too. But I very shamelessly love things like Step-Up… I can’t help it. I’m totally fascinated. Anyway, look up Rebel Wilson on YouTube. Or just watch her in that link in my post- she was in Bridesmaids: Kristen Wiig’s weird roommate.
The posting was no problem- I just kept thinking I was finished and they kept handing me more papers asking about hazardous materials and the value of what I was sending. So glad you liked the chocolates! Those are my favorites (they have like a million varieties)!
Ooooh I love Rebel Wilson!
And damn if that baby doesn’t look ready to murder!
Cheers

She’s great, right? I need her to be my neighbor or something.
The great thing about winter is that I don’t bother with nail polish at all! Not even on my toes, which is why I wear closed toe shoes, even when it’s 80 degrees like it is today.

hopefuladdict recently posted…January 22, 2013 – Don’t look down!!
I do not love Mondays. But I do have fun writing these posts and looking at all the funny stuff people (you and Rachael) send me.
That baby with the cake? That’s me…every day.
