weekend

I had a little stressful week and I'm so excited for a long weekend.  Can't wait to sleep in late, finish reading my book and drink lots of tea (I've been into teas a lot recently).  Aside from all this, my goal is to find a gift for my mom - it's her birthday next week.  But I'm not sure what to get her...she loves baking and she likes to write...maybe I can get her a pretty journal? What do you usually get your mom on her birthday?

Happy long weekend!

• I made coffee every morning and felt good to wake up early to the aroma of brewing java...this week, we've been enjoying Peet's Coffee  


• I read my all time favorite book East of Eden and nearly finished it, but I can never get enough of this classic, it's a book of life - so many great lessons and thoughts to ponder about...I love it!


• Finally, went to the post office and mailed our long-overdue Christmas and birthday gifts to both of our families...shame on me


• Renewed our apartment lease for another year and scored a free carpet cleaning!


• Browsed through shelves of World Market and ended up with Biscoff cookies, which taste delicious with my morning coffee as I type this...


• Next in my agenda, is a trip to Trader Joe's....very exciting, right?!

What were some of the highlights of your weekend?

have a lovely weekend...and a ramble...

{1,2}

Hello my lovely readers!  It's been too long since I've done a rambl-y post...here I am waiting for the work day to be over to get home and start planning my weekend.

As you may know, my wedding is nearing (November) and I've been more than busy, at times even very frustrated at the very last bits of final details for the big day.  But I feel a lot better today knowing that our invitations have finally gone out in mail (phew...it took months of revisions and additions and deletions, and etc...) So, this weekend, I can't wait to spend quality time with my love.  The wedding-planning has really taken up a lot of my time and every so often I've been...well...let's be honest here...not so pleasant to be around with...And...I'm determined to try to compensate for those days and we're going to spend time together in DC, enjoy the Fall weather, grab a frothy latte, walk arm-in-arm and attend a few festivals taking place in the city.

P.S. Thanks for sticking with me through these sporadic blog posts! All 139 of you...I know I keep loosing a few readers here and there, but those of you who always comment (you know who I'm talking about) inspire me so much to keep blogging and stay creative.  It's truly is an inspirational outlet for me.

I hope you all have a lovely weekend!

Happy Weekend!

Wish you all a relaxing weekend! I know, I'm in desperate need for some down time.  After a nice cup of coffee and cinnamon raisin toast, I'm ready to head out for some shopping, followed by a County fair. 

P.S. promise to get back into the usual blogging routine, hopefully soon.
