Home for the Holidays

I always have this vision of what my future home will look like and I love sharing it with you all. Don't worry I am currently addicted to HGTV so no need to worry about that. Haha. Being that it is the holidays, and I finally have time to sit down and think about things other than getting through the semester(by the way I am half way through my college career...AMEN), I was just thinking about how amazing I think real trees are and how damn good they smell. The thought then pops into my head...

My future home, with a huge real tree. The aroma of the mixture of the pine and delicious foods flowing throughout the house, as my husband, children, and I sit sipping hot cocoa in front of the fireplace, awaiting Santa's arrival. Yea, I got this all planned. Check out my vision below...Enjoy!

Am I the only one that fell in love with this setup? 

I can truly see it now, on like house hunters or something and giving a list of all my necessities for my future home. Hope that you all enjoy your holidays.

First Time Love!!

Today was a good day! Met up with another creative at Connecticut Muffin today. We spoke about loads of things, it was so awesome; from natural hair to traveling and society on a whole (that's a whole other topic).

The best thing of all, it was my first time actually buying anything in Connecticut Muffin and I opted for a Vanilla Chai Latte. and that was the BEST CHOICE EVER!!!


I think I fell in love. I'm through with Hot Cocoa...the latte hit the ultimate spot, perfect just in time for the holidays. It was like a perfect mix of vanilla and nutmeg; giving me that eggnog taste and feel. I love it! So I will definitely be getting in touch with the folks over at Connecticut Muffin a lot more.

New Burn!! Yum


So I recently received this product and when I tell you....I fell in love!!
OMG!

The past summer, I was in search of a fairly priced candle that smelled good so I bought some cheap, sort of generic brands. They were not terrible but they just cannot compare. This blew me out of this world. Another thing that was surprising about this candle was that it was pumpkin; I have never been one of those people that liked pumpkin flavored or scented things. 
I decided, I wouldn't judge a candle by its scent(LOL), so I lit this up and when I tell you I just couldn't get enough. Sitting here typing I am thinking about how GREAT it smells. 

Yummy Pumpkin Cupcake!!
Take a whiff!


I will definitely be purchasing a candle from Bath and Body Works in the future. As well it will be on my Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Year/Valentine's Day/Birthday/Just because list. HAH

If you have not tried out one of these glasses of sweet goodness I advise you to go out and get yourself one, two, three, or even ten. Oh, and don't forget to put it on your holiday lists.

Chocolate Books

** 11/3/12**
Since last week I had been dying to go to Barnes & Nobles for a me date but I was in my usual** procrastination mood. Last night, I told myself I was going to Barnes & Nobles and getting me a peppermint hot chocolate and reading. I went on a quest to find a list of books that might interest me and I'd say I came up with a pretty good list; out of my list I was able to find 5.

I'm super inpatient at times and having to search was pretty annoying but I did it. When I was over actually searching through the what felt like millions of books, I asked for help. By the way it was only two books, I did well!

I was secretly hoping to get an open seat across from a hot guy but I was lucky enough that the hot guy got up. I now had two seats!(Which by the way two elderly ladies sat in.) My peppermint hot cocoa in one hand and my books in the other.

It was pretty awesome scanning through the books I had selected. I really can say I enjoyed my little me time date. Thanks to that me time, I decided that I will be purchasing all used books(those books were outrageous to me). Plus for me!


How do you enjoy me time?
