A Few of My Favorite Thingz ♡
02 July, 2015
Good morning beloved. Things are running smoothly on my end. I've began to outline my book, and after a long prayer sesh, I can really feel God helping me! I'm honestly the perfect person to write a book because I'm not all that interesting! I don't have a whole lot to say... so hopefully that means God will take the pen and do the writing for me! We shall see, we shall see.
Here's a few of my current favorite things, babes.
I am still a Belieber. Seriously, ya gotta watch this video. The first minute is really awkward, but once you make it past about 1:10 things start to get super sweet. For real, I told my brother to watch it (an anti-Belieber) and he admitted how cool it was. Join the dark side, become a Belieber. "One of usssss." :)
Which leads me into my next favorite thing....
Spending time with my best friend! My brother James and I are both home for the summer. I'm working at my parent's advertising company and he's home from college to work as a swim coach. He is the best, we have the exact same sense of humor. And he eats 4 waffles every night before he goes to bed because he's incredibly healthy and always gives me a piece. Haha! Love ya bro.
Almond milk and COFFEE ICE CUBES. This, friends, is a game changer. Go to walmart and buy an ice cube tray for $1.00, go home and make some coffee, and... yes... pour it into the trays. Freeze 'em, pop 'em out the next morning, and pour some almond milk over the top. Talk about a yummy nummy iced latte! Mmm, mmm, good.
BIG SEXY HAIR products. These products, I'm tellin' ya... the name ain't lyin. When I was living in LA last year, I was obsessed with kickboxing classes from an instructor named Mike. I'd follow him to all the gyms he taught at, 4 in total... yeah, I was a groupie. There was a cute couple that were also regulars to his classes, and after chatting with them a bit, they told me they were the owners of Big, Sexy Hair! I was blown away, since I was a huge fan of their products even before knowing that. Try 'em out, you'll be addicted.
A struggle of mine is I get super caught up in MYSELF. I'm constantly thinking about me, me, me... Something I've been trying to do recently is write encouragement cards to OTHERS, to get my mind off MYSELF! I've written a handful in the last week. It's a greatttt great way to keep in touch with besties and let them know that "hey, I'm thinkin' about ya babe."
The last couple weeks, I've hung out with and ran into a couple guys. Cute guys. As a single girl, it's obviously easy to think, "hm, this guy is quite a nice boy! Maybe we could really start something?" Instead, I've been trying to think the opposite. "If God has chosen this particular man for me, then it'll lead to something. Until then, I'll focus my attention on Him." I've been doing my best to spend time with Him every day. He alone holds my future. Sorry boys.
Oh my lanta, homemade sweet potato chips are my weakness. Preheat the oven to 375º, thinly slice 2 sweeties, and toss them in 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Place 'em on a baking sheet, generously sprinkle with salt, pepper, and rosemary, and bake for 30 minutes. You will taste Heaven.
