Dinner

For dinner Sunday night, RT and I had black bean burgers with a corn and peppers side. It was so yummy!

 

I used this recipe from skinny taste for the burgers. We are major avocado lovers so i almost always put avacado on any kind of burger i make. I also put a tomato slice on mine but RT hates tomato so he did not get one. All inside a whole wheat thin round.

 

For the side I just roasted corn on the cob, one poblano pepper, and one green bell pepper in the oven. Then I cut the corn off the cob and diced up the peppers. Mix it all together and serve.

 

Delicious!

 

Happy Tuesday!!

Black Bean Burgers .. or Not


Last night I had all the fixins to make black bean burgers for dinner. But when I got home we decided on a date night instead. We watched an episode of teen mom .. because it is important to start your night off with some seriously good quality television .. then headed to this extra yummy pizza place near by and enjoyed a really nice date night together.


I truly love spending time with RT. I know what a blessing that is and i cherish every second we spend together. He is my very favorite person to hang out with and even better than that .. he likes hangin out with me too! I am a lucky girl :)


and bonus .. he's super easy on the eyes!!



Happy Weekend!!

4 in 1







a while back i did a post where i showed how the women in my family could all wear the same trend just in different ways. i thought it was super fun!! so today i decided to use the same concept but instead of using a trend i am using a specific piece. i chose these printed skinny jeans by citizens of humanity because it is a style that looks great on all of our different body types and they are mid rise which also works for each of us. so fun right?! i love to showcase how one trend piece can work for anyone .. whether you are a twenty something still early on in your marriage, a young mom, or a grandmother.

Happy Wednesday!

If I Was Your Boyfriend



Well ok I guess that would be kinda weird considering .. well .. everything ...



ANYWAY .. I super love these jeans! I have had them for years and the more I wear/wash them the softer and slouchier and awesomer they get. And bonus .. RT likes them too. I read in a magazine the other day this list of 'the top 20 clothing items your guy wants to to get rid of' and boyfriend jeans were on the list. Well not my man! Booyah!



When my grandmother moved a few months ago, this belt was one of the things she gave to me. It is rainbow colored with gold studs all over and I have worn it a ton. It just adds a little something fun and kinda 80s and that is alright by me. I do not subscribe to the 'if I wore it the first time it was in style I can't wear it when it comes back' rule. I dont like fashion rules period.



Happy Tuesday!

Let me start by apologizing for my lack of posts lately. My life has been one giant whirlwind the past week or so. It has been great but super super busy! Sorry bout that!!

Sitting at Work ...

... listening to a funny little audio book {yes I am that dorky!}

... enjoying our extra-large extra-comfy big brown couch

... randomly looking up at the door waiting for the rush of customers {fingers crossed people}

... wondering what I did this weekend that has caused the complete loss of my voice. I have been quite the raspy one for the past couple of days

... looking through blogs and twitter and facebook and instagram and wondering how the heck all this social media has invaded my very existence

... And wishing you a very happy Monday!!
