Our last Cooking Club is in the books for 2017!   It’s always fun, but this one is our particular favoritie – just apps, dessert and wine!   It’s always great to start with wine, no?!  Since I follow Courtney (are you following her? She has amazing organizing tips and great recipes!) I already saw the table scape.  She is the perfect hostess – but...

I treat myself to at least one coffee a week at the coffee shop next to the train station.  Even though its rediculous to pay $3.50 for a plain coffee, sometimes you have to treat yo self. But as I was waiting for my turn to order my coffee, the blueberry muffin was eyeing me, as if to say “Biz, you know you want me!”...

It’s always difficult to get back in the swing of a regular work week, especially since I had a three day work week two weeks in a row.  I woke up thinking “I’ve got to work five days in a row?!”  I’ll take this weather though! I didn’t drink near enough water over the weekend.  At my desk I have no problem keeping my water...

I know everyone is going to be busy with family, friends and food today, but I just wanted to write a quick post to thank you to everyone who takes a couple minutes out of their day to stop by my tiny part of the internet.  If you’ve been following me for a week, a year and 9 years (there are a few of you...

I knew it was going to be a busy day yesterday since I was off two days last week, but what I forgot to factor in is the short work week this week – I was so busy as usual – all three of my bosses had work piled up and I feel like I barely made a dent in my work load.   I...

Morning!  I have today off in anticipation of going to Dallas tomorrow for my nieces wedding!  My brother wrote one of my favorite posts about his oldest daughter leaving for college – you can check it out here. I am sure my SIL Laura and brother are like “how did my baby get so big!”  It seems like one day you are walking them to...

While I might complaint about it being dark when I leave work now, I will love the light in the morning when I wake up.  While it’s going to be chilly here, sunshine and puffy clouds will always make me happy, regardless of the temperature. I knew I wanted to work out after work yesterday, so I intentionally staggered my food.  I ate this “hash”...

It was a chilly start to the day.  I need to stock up on gloves – I gave my pair to Hannah the other day and I could have used them yesterday on the train platform. This is a weird breafkast, but it worked.  What you didn’t see before I took this picture, was the hard boiled egg and ham that was on the side...

Yesterday morning I woke up at 7:07.  Hannah went to work early and the dogs came in with me.  My alarm was set, and somehow I turned it off instead of hitting snooze.  Guess what time I have to leave for work?  7:20!  I made it though – the beauty of having an hour train ride is that I can put my makeup on the...

While I would have appreciate a bit more of a fall temps in the 50s, I am not hating on this weather.  But can you answer this questions?  How is it that every year I can never find ANY winter accessories – I found ONE hat that my brother gave me for Christmas and that’s about it – no gloves at all.   After a...
