scratch that...

Since it's snowing outside and freezing cold-

let's forget about the weekend necessities and share a few of my favorite things!

Winter has finally started- babies are sleeping, big band is being played throughout the house and I am about to sit down with some amazing pomegranate tea.

(a little fyi- I finished the plate of brownies at 5:37p.m. last night- I ended up making them gluten and dairy free so I assumed they just could not possibly be good the next day :)) 

"These are a few of my favorite things!"

I am so not a fan of Oprah, quite frankly cause everything she does is perfect, but I just realized this sounds like that dang show she had.  Ironically enough, I love Martha Stewart.  I use to stalk her apartment by Chelsea pier in nyc- we lived real close.

ok- off subject. Let me get bak-  This is from Sound of Music.

I know there are some fans out there, Brooke?

Things that make me happy!!!

gimme a beach cruiser anytime and I'll make an afternoon of it!

BTW- for those of you who in live in STL, Webster Groves is REALLY hilly.

hmmm... maybe that's why they call them beach cruisers and not hill climbers...

a real nice latte.

whew- I eat it every day.  I love chocolate- but it has to be dark.  Like, 70% or more.

Although if you give me those pretzel m&m's, I'm not sure what's in them- but I have to remember to start buying the small bags- I'll eat the entire bag before I get home.

Walks.

Anytime.

Anywhere.

yep.  still on that sequin quick.

So festive and comfy- really, they are!

paella.

It has to be made just right though- there are a lot of poorly made paella's out there.

When you find a good one, hold on to it!

trees, glorious trees!

scone me!

I love scones- not the ones from starbucks- that's basically a muffin in a triangle shape.  I mean, a real, barely sweet scone.  It's like a biscuit with fruit and a touch of sugar.

mountains- build me a house right here please.

(I only hope there is a target around the corner!!)

falling snow.

yep- I think we are aware of my obsession with snow and the movie White Christmas.

enjoy your weekend-

exactly.  it's funny how we all grow up, huh?
