A Quick Catch-Up

My goodness.  I have been MIA for quite sometime now.  So sorry and that's totally unfair to all of you.  I won't make excuses, but I have been busy and there is lots on which to catch you up!  Let's get started.


1)  MUST SEE Apparently there is new fashion in town, and Starbucks is heading the way.  Unfortunately, I think it may be for the worse.  I guess they're trying to make coffee stains fashionable.  Now, I may not be a fashionista, although I do love me some BCBG, J Crew, and Arden B, but even I know this is a step in the very wrong direction.  It's almost as bad as their introduction of the "treinta" sized coffee cup.


2) True Blood.  O.M.G.  This show is amazing and I'm admittedly hooked.  Granted, if it weren't for the fact that I have them on DVD and can breeze through all the seasons I probably would have given up.  It took until episode 7 to become addicted, and if I had to deal with commercials and waiting a week between episodes, they would have lost me.  However, I happily admit I am a Sookie and Bill addict, obsessed with Eric, and completely terrified by the concept or idea of watching them alone at night.  Still, on to season three!


3)  Band of Brothers.  Yes, I am WAY behind on the band wagon on this one.  Just started watching the DVDs and they really are everything the hype suggested.  They are not only moving and emotional, but they are historically wonderful and completely educational.  What a great thing for a history class.  It certainly would have peaked my interest.


4)  FALL IS HERE!!!! Love love LOOOOOVE this season.  It makes me want to snuggle up with someone by the fire, play in the leaves and drink Pumpkin Spice Lattes.  Yum.  Plus squash is in season again and I am just one overly happy camper...except, absolutely and without the camping equipment.


*Phew*  We made it.  A quick upkeep, a little housecleaning, and I sincerely hope that everyone is outside enjoying this amazingly beautiful weather we are having.  We may have had one rainy and overly hot spring and summer, but mother nature is definitely taking a break and providing us with a wonderful fall. I couldn't ask for a better September.
