Five Favorites

At the moment, I am mildly obsessed with....

1. Cherries and Figs.  I could eat both every single day and be happy.  Oh goodness...why are they so good and also so stinkin' expensive?!

2. Grimm.  This show is crazy good.  Like no other show on television really.  Sort of intense and scary, but wildly creative.  Sucks me right in.

3. J. R. Watkins Peppermint Foot Cream.  As well as the Lemon lotion.  Heavenly!  They are inexpensive and look really pretty as gifts too.




4. Shorts.  Specifically these from J Crew.  A big event in my life this summer has been being brave enough to wear shorts.  These are so comfortable and I just love them.  I do still feel a little scandalous in something so short though.

5. Raw almonds.  I just think they taste so much sweeter when raw, unroasted and unsalted.

I adore almonds! I'll eat them any way I can get them but this week's flavors were wasabi and cinnamon. Yum.

Where do you get the peppermint lotion?

Hi! Just wanted to introduce myself. I am new to the blogging world altho I have been a reader for years. I first started reading your blog when you wrote about Greek life. I have 2 girls -one tri delta and one that begins freshman year this month. Your post on Greek life was very comprehensive and really told it like it is. It was great information for a mom who went to a college that didn't have Greek life. Anyway, just wanted to say hi and let you know how much I enjoy your blog. http://preppyemptynester.blogspot.com/ KC

OK very surprised you like Grimm - cool! Which means you would like Buffy. Should I ship all my DVD's to you now or...?

Almonds are the perfect snack!

J.Crew shorts are the best! I love when they go on super sale. I always stock up
