Oh Whitney, why must she torture me so?!
My co-worker Angie gave me a bag full of goodies for my trip. It was so unexpected so nice of her to do this, I wore the sunglasses the entire trip!
My mom brought Kneaders for a car lunch the day before I left for California...it was my first car lunch of the year since I only work 3 days a week now there isn't as much need (though I still enjoy them).
Michelle texted me while I was in the car with my mom saying she was bringing me cookies! I felt so spoiled as I had my mom leaving and Michelle arriving...spoiled!
Michelle made these tasty sugar cookies for Cookie Monday (which she posts on Instagram every Monday) and I had commented that I almost showed up at her house to taste them, so she kindly delivered them to me at work!
I came home from work that day to find that Michelle had delivered my wreath! I had been working on it but felt stumped about how to attach the "S" and the bow so she and her mom tweaked it for me (which was the most important part).
One of our office aides put this note on my computer, this is funny for two reasons 1. She is NOT my favorite at all 2. I think the word "totes" is pretty funny.
My Secret Pal this time around hasn't been very into it but did give me these goodies after I sent a reminder email to the whole group.
I got a nice thank you note from Amie, oh how I love good mail and miss its frequency.
Amie and I went to the wedding reception of our friend Lisa's son. He was in the first primary class I ever taught 11 years ago! I loved that primary class so much I had them for 2 years. It was surreal to see him as a married man.
Our old oven broke so our landlords got us this one. It's very nice but looks a tad modern for our old house!
This is the only lipstick I've ever had that will actually stay on all day, and is a color I like. I usually have a back up stash but ran out of it last week and started to panic when I couldn't find it at 2 different Wal-Marts (nothing but the best for me). I ended up getting the last two our local Walgreens had which leads me to believe that Cover Girl might be discontinuing my color. Oh the humanity!!
Since Michelle and I didn't get together the Friday I was in California and weren't going to be able the Friday after Thanksgiving we opted for a Cafe Rio car lunch.

You are the only person I know who appreciates a good car lunch as much as I do, although I prefer to take mine alone so I can read undisturbed.
I am not familiar with Cookie Monday-- now that is something I could get behind!
Love the wreath.
Hurray for a new stove and a landlord! I am not digging homeownership this year. We have had to buy a new dishwasher, a new washing machine, new garage door opener, fix our a/c . . . and on and on. I think my refrigerator is creeping up on its dying days as well.
Glad you got to enjoy some *car time* and with cookies to boot!
Your wreath turned out nice. I want to make wither a holiday one or a general year round one but can never decide how to make it. I applaud your follow-through-ness!
I wish we'd get a Cafe Rio in Texas!
I tried to double click on your oven photo to like it. Ha, ha! #smartz
It's so fun to catch up with you on posts like these.
I wonder if Whitney will ever give up hoping?
Oh I hate when they discontinue my favorite colors. It's a conspiracy to just keep trying new colors. Infuriating.
Clearly Whitney's plan at this point is to drive you insane. Is it working??
Yes Melanie, it is!
I use the same brand of lipstick. My favourite colour is Neverending Nude.
