currently: friday edition

don't look now, but this is not a life recap post. can you believe it? it's been a while :) i have some random things floating around in my head on this friday before labor day weekend, so i decided to combine them in a blog post using the "currently" format. so, here ya go: 

currently reading: elin hilderbrand! have you heard of her? she is a national best selling author of close to 20 fictional books and i am hooked on her books lately! i suppose they would be categorized as "chick lit" but they are so good. the story lines are pretty light and airy, but not in a cheesy way and i love how much she develops each character. a year or two ago, i read "the castaways" and enjoyed it, but it wasn't until this summer that i started picking up more of her books at the library, most recently i've read "the rumor" and "the island". i'm excited that there are still plenty for me to read, and also some christmas themed ones! does it get any better? here are the ones i have read, if you wanna check them out: 


currently watching: i don't watch a lot of grown up tv these days, but i'm almost finished with the final season of sex and the city (it'll be at least my second time watching the whole series). it's funny how "dated" it has become, but i just love that show. i also watched "bridget jones's baby" last night for the first time, while thatcher was out with a friend. i love that series and had been meaning to watch the 3rd movie for a long time - it did not disappoint! 

currently wearing: summer is almost over (er, except it's gonna be 85 and sunny all weekend) and while it's been fun creating new outfits out of shorts, tank tops, skirts, and dresses, i'd be lying if i said i wasn't itching to start wearing jeans, cardigans, and boots again. when i was in minneapolis, i went to target by myself one night (i really know how to live it up, right?) and bought this gray cardigan that i am in loooove with. i also want to get another pair of distressed jeans. i like to make fun of myself because for years i thought they were the dumbest thing ever, but i've been converted!


    currently doing: writing this blog post while the kids have their morning tv time. i still need to brush my teeth and get ready for the day, but...priorities! :) 

currently eating: the kids and i made cookies yesterday for the first time in a long time. tacos are on the menu for tonight. we have them pretty much every week. we've started doing grilled chicken and veggie tacos lately and they are so good! and guac. always guac. 

currently thinking about: what i'm going to wear today, how i'm gonna fill this day with no actual plans (probably a trip to the playground, the store, some work time for me and lots of board games), azalea's teacher assignment letter is coming in the mail today! can't wait to see who she gets and which kids are in her class this year. 

hope you have a great long weekend!

Looks like a great weekend! Guac is always an important ingredient, but I've been craving queso lately. I love a good melty cheese!
