{ ❤ again? }

I swear we were just sittin' at this very spot on the calendar, weren't we? Well, here's my Red Paper Crap Day tribute to myself :). I jest. Sorta.

Sparkling wine & berries

Chocolate Raspberry Truffles

Broiled Lobster Tail with Garlic Butter Sauce

I'm the hero of this story. I don't need to be saved.

I'm now going to go pour myself a glass of cab sav and leave you with the sage words of Lily Tomlin: "If love is the answer, could you please rephrase the question?"
Happy week.

diet coke bling

My favorite soft drink just became oh so sexy.

Karl Lagerfeld's latest Diet Coke bottles revealed

I am not dead.

I am finishing my dissertation.

Not long now.

I miss you, blog.

Until we meet again ....

blushing curb appeal

I've long been a lover of red doors. At some point--hopefully sooner, rather than later--I will own a house with said punch of color.

But oh, how these pretties appeal to me as well. How could you not break into a smile each time you came home to your house with the pink door?
