Yay, it's Friday! Andy and I are looking forward to heading to Madison tomorrow to visit our good friends Katie and Dan for the weekend. What are about you? Anything fun planned?Before I leave you for the weekend I wanted share my Happy 101 with you. Have you heard of this award? I had not until Meghan of The Perfect Compilation Tape honored me with it last week. Be sure to click through and check her out -- she's a down-to-earth girl that writes about life and living in Chicago (it is so well-written). Following suit of all the other past honorees I am to list 10 things that make me happy. So here it goes...
Red Vine Licorice-yum!
A glass of red wine (cab/shiraz preferred).
Candles, they make everything cozier.
Saturday morning breakfast + coffee with Andy! (why are guys so good at making eggs and bacon?)
New nail polish! Anyone have any recommendations for me?
Clothes that make me feel sexy.
Vampire Weekend -- great road trip music!
Burrowing into Andy's chest while laying on the couch, watching a good movie.
Warm weather (the hotter the better!). Midwest winters suck.
My friends and family :) -- from the people I see everyday to the ones I see once a year and all my virtual blogger friends; it always puts a smile on my face when I hear from you!
And now for my "must read" blogs. Some of these I recently stumbled upon and some I have been following for a long time. Either way I am so happy to pass their links onto you -- be sure to check them out! (I know this award has gotten around, so I apologize if you have already received it)Rachel + Jennifer of fric and frac
