I’m guest posting today over at my friend Lara’s blog, Simply Irresistible, and I’m talking all about just how awesome my current hometown of Boulder, Colorado is. Because seriously, it’s great. I love living here and it was fun to be able to share some of my favorite things about this amazing city. Go check it out.
I got another recipe on foodgawker, woo! My brownies from yesterday were featured on their site, and I know am a huge dork and get way too excited about this, but I really just think that foodgawker is an awesome site and it’s where I find a lot of great recipes so getting to contribute is really cool. The site is constantly updating so I think that my brownies are on page 5 or 6 by now, but you can see them here. And you should seriously try out the recipe because it’s chocolate heaven.
Speaking of food, Cam and I had a brainstorming meeting for Thanksgiving dinner. Seriously. We are both planners and even though it’s just my family and it won’t be that many people, I still want to make sure everything is organized. So after much discussion (aka Cam telling me that we don’t need 6 desserts for just 6 people) I feel good that we’ve got a game plan in place as to when we’re going to make what. Now I just need to find a few recipes, make my shopping list, and we’ll be set. Oh, and we actually have to cook too. I’m currently in the market for a good stuffing recipe…we’re probably not going to actually stuff the turkey with it, so I’ll be making it on the side. Any suggestions/recommendations welcome!
I just found out that I am modeling for the Boulder Community Hospital Fashion Show Luncheon next Saturday. The travel store I work at has some clothes in the fashion show and apparently one of the models dropped out so they asked me if I would do it. Apparently, I’m going to be modeling clothing for my store as well as for another store in Boulder. I really have no idea what to expect but apparently this event raises money for the hospital and is somewhat a of a big Boulder “society” event. Hopefully it will be fun, I’ll definitely post pictures!
I know that I’m constantly posting these idiotic pictures of my nails, but seriously a good manicure makes me happy. It really is the little things in life. This week I have Essie Power Clutch on my nails, and it’s a great dark greenish gray that’s perfect for fall. Love.
This past weekend I discovered my new favorite fro-yo place in Boulder, and the reason that it’s my new favorite is because they have this as a topping:
So great. Obviously I put some on my red velvet frozen yogurt…along with gummy worms and funfetti cake. Diabetes in a bowl.
And as always, Lola Beans continues to be a little ray of sunshine slash she sort of looks like an alien sometimes, but that’s ok. We love her anyway.
Have a great Wednesday everyone! Xoxo
