to you guys on Wednesday, but I have been loving salads this week. I always like dataset salads, but with the addition of these crunchy garlicky crutons and leftovers from other nights’ dinners (sweet corn!!!) they have been even better. I’m definitely on a salad kick this week…let’s see how long it lasts (my guess is ’til the bottom of the cruton bag…)
Favorite Baby Shower Dish
Two of the women I work with are expecting babies in late September/early October, and to celebrate our team is hosting a baby shower for them next Monday (the 26th). I am having trouble deciding what to bake/bring, and was thinking these cookies may need to make a reappearance. Any thoughts?
Favorite Lunch Outing
One of my other coworkers celebrated her birthday this week so a group fax database of us went out to lunch at Roti to celebrate. It was a gorgeous day (like 75 degrees and sunny) and we had so much fun sitting around chatting. My coworker offered to share her birthday cupcake with us, and split it into seven equal pieces so we could all have a bite. Isn’t that nice? I’m not sure I’d be so generous, ha. Anyway, the Roti was delicious (I got a salad) but the cupcake was even better. It was from Crumbs, which you guys know is my fav.
Favorite Inspiration
Sometimes when I’m working on something mindless at work (e.g., filling out an how do i apply for a scholarship? Excel spreadsheet, copying & pasting info, etc.) I like to listen to something more than just music. Music is great but if I’m doing something really boring, I need a bit more. Sometimes it’s a Podcast, sometimes it’s my Harry Potter audio book (OMG I’M ALMOST DONE BOOK SEVEN. START PANICKING!) but lately I’ve been listening to TED talks.
Hi friends! Who’s happy it’s Friday? I know I am! I had a pretty great week, and I’m excited to tell you about it with another edition of Favorite Things Friday. 
Here are some things that made me smile this week!
the last few days of summer! (Unofficially, of course)
