I love being barefoot. Once I get home, I take my shoes off immediately. I love walking in backyards and on patios barefoot. When I was little, my parents tried to rid me of this dirty habit. They told me that I would catch ringworm if I walked outside barefoot. I haven't yet (knock on wood). On my way home, my hubster and I had this conversation.
Me: What do you want to do this weekend?
Hubster: Maybe, make some breakfast smoothies and eat some danishes. But we don't have danishes.
Me: Okay.
Hubster: We could drink our smoothies out on the patio in our pjs barefoot.
Me: I love that idea!
Isn't he a genius? Pjs, smoothies, bare feet, and sunshine. How heavenly!
Last weekend, Steve (my hubster's best friend from high school) and my hubster went off roading. I thought about going, but I chose to enjoy some delicious napping. I did make my hubster take the camera with him. Having photos is just as good as going, no? So happy that I didn't go. They came back 3 hours later! My days are bumpy enough for me.
Halloween is fast approaching. Thanks Michaels and Walmart for reminding me. Halloween is a very big deal at the school I'm at. We do a huge Halloween parade with the entire school (Over 600 kids dress up). All the teachers and aides dress up too. We trot around in a circle and display our costume while Monster Mash plays. No pressure, right? That's exactly why I'm trying to figure out my costume now.
My first year, I was a tree. Last year, I was an alien. Both were homemade costumes. I love homemade costumes. I never had them as a kid. My parents always got me the perfect store bought costumes. I'm hoping to make homemade costumes a tradition with my family whenever the kiddos finally arrive. That's why I'm trying to get some practice in now.
My hubster wanted me to be a milkshake, but I couldn't find any inspiring milkshake costumes. I started to browse Target for some ideas, just in case I didn't have time to make my costume. I found a cupcake and crayon costume. They are so pricey! I decided to roam over to Etsy and Martha. Now, I have too many options.
I'm honestly leaning towards the sushi one. I think I could hand stitch it, and it would be the easiest. I was also thinking about switching it up and being a sushi boat. That makes it way ambitious. When it comes to the one with the butterflies, I was thinking about modifying it and making it with bees instead. Then, I could draw honeycomb pattern on a t-shirt, get a tutu and become a beehive. The Rubik's cube is so classic, and it would be so fun to make with my hubster. I might hate contact paper and black duct tape after making it. Oh, choices, choices.
This has been the summer of Mike Posner for me. His songs have been on constant replay during many of my coffeehouse stints. His channel is my current Pandora favorite because all of my other favorite artists pop up on the playlist. I just love the lyrics and the beat. My hubster is even a fan of his cover art and title of his debut album. Here's a conversation that my hubster and I recently had about him.
Me: Babe, listen to this song. (Plays Cheated)
Hubster: Okay.
Me: Isn't it good? It's not often that nice guys have a good break-up song. He has definitely had his heart broken one too many times.
Hubster: That's probably because he picks the wrong girls. I bet he likes bad girls.
Me: True. Like the girl in his other song.
Both: (laughs)
I wonder if it's true. Mike Posner, do you like bad girls?
Adios summer! Even though the weather wasn't as pleasant as expected, we were still able to enjoy the fruits of summer. I'll miss them most of all once our farmer's markets are filled with root veggies. My favorite fruit this summer? Raspberries. Our neighborhood farmer (he's literally a few streets over) has the sweetest raspberries for only $1.50/box. Our raspberries are so fresh that they still have feathery seeds from neighboring plants on them. We usually ate half of the box before we even made it home.
