Just Some New Favorites


1) A certain little lady introduced me to this yogurt while we were staying at her house a couple of months ago. I can only find this brand at Whole Foods, but Trader Joe's also carries a maple yogurt that is just as delicious. It's like having dessert for breakfast, which is always a good idea.


And speaking of yogurt, I've been making these yogurt popsicles for William and he's nuts for them. I bought this Tupperware popsicle set probably about 8 years ago and have never used it. It's getting a lot of good use now, though! I just spoon yogurt (lately it's been the maple!) into the little molds, stick the sticks in and freeze. Since it's gotten so hot here, it's nice to have a healthy, cold snack for the kid (as opposed to that ice cream you see there).



2) Love my new water bottle. We've become addicted to bottled water around here and it's a disturbing trend. I got William a Sigg water bottle a year ago and we've loved it. This week I finally got my own. It's the greatest. Plus -- pretty!




3) The newest member of my vintage luggage family. Since my green one now transports my toiletries when on a trip, I needed another one for my sewing notions. I'm so lucky that the antique store near my parents' house always seems to have a good selection!



4) Taylor Swift. What can I say? I'm a little bit obsessed with her. She's adorable and her songs make me cry like a little girl. The song in the video below is like, unlistenable. I bawl my eyes out every time. Enjoy! Haha

Ha ha. I have to admit, seeing Taylor Swift on your blog threw me off a bit, but I'm glad you can still have teenage girl moments. You have to admit, they were fun...

And I love the popsicles, they totally remind me of being a kid.

And Jon and I are in need of new water containment units seeing that our Nalgene's are dying. I'll have to look into those Sigg's...

My store sells the Brown Cow yogurts and I decided to give them a try about a week ago. Now I'm addicted, which is kind of a shame because of how much sugar they have and because of how pricey they are. *sigh*

I know, the Taylor Swift thing is a bit out of character. But I can't help it. She has some sort of power of me. Very creepy.

Check Brown Cow's website for Von's, Albertson's, and Pavilion's near you. Also, other health food stores.

Sheena: I seriously cry whenever I hear any of her songs. And I totally want to be her. It's kind of silly. But I can't help it!

"Stubby", huh? Seems fitting somehow...

Brad: Thanks! :)
