It's a beautiful Saturday! Already completed today: hour bike ride, cleaned kitchen, made brats and mac n cheese for lunch (Neal and I's perfect springtime/march madness food), and watching b-ball. I love today! This is the first Saturday in A LONG time that I can remember Neal and I just being about to lounge around the house and I am so grateful. I'm planning to just enjoy the rest of the day hopefully watching some great basketball games and snuggling on the couch with my big cutie. (Neal)

I also said I would blog about some of my new favorite obsessions. So here they are:

1) House Design Blogs- I LOVE to read/get ideas/look at pictures and DREAM about what our future house may look like and how we would decorate it. Renting a house right now that is already furnished has us (or maybe just me) itching to put our own touch on things. SOMEDAY...ahhh. Some of my fav blogs include: Young House Love, House Tweaking , DesignSponge , and Decor8. I'm in the process of trying to discover my "style."

2) Oatmeal- I know...totally random but EVERYDAY for the last 3 or 4 months I have had either maple and brown sugar (with added PB) or strawberry oatmeal for breakfast. This discovery has led to lessening my OVERLY grumbly stomach I used to get at school between breakfast and lunch. Now I don't drool over the kids mid-morning snack. haha :)

3) Cooking and The Pioneer Woman- Ok so this isn't a new obsession but I love cooking more and more everyday. Baking or cooking...I love it all. I need to start posting more recipes. I just made snickerdoodle muffins this week and they were FABULOUS. I also just found a recipe for Yat's cheesy crawfish etoufee and I'm anxious to make that :)

4) Boots- I have ALWAYS hated winter clothing. I love summer... tanktop, jean shorts, and sandals, can't get much better than that. I've never felt like I even have a winter "style"- (haha...me saying I even have a style is hilarious to me), but anyways...this winter I discovered that with skinny pants and boots I can LOVE almost any outfit. I have these gray boots I would wear EVERDAY if I could.

I have also been looking for some great light brown/reddish boots, but spring is here and sandal weather is just around the corner so maybe next year.
