I can’t believe it’s taken a year!

Posted on by

OMG. I can’t believe it’s taken me a year to come to Ducks Donuts (they just celebrated their one-year anniversary yesterday)!

Talking to the owner as she created our order!

My faves (of the ones in this box—the Signature Assortment) are Bacon in the Sun and Coconut Island Bliss. Though Sunrise and Blueberry Pancake were nice surprises!

Oh college…good times.

I ran across this photo from college this morning and showed it to Katie. She did NOT believe it was me. She kept looking back and forth from me to the photo like HUH? WHAT? and I assured her it was indeed me.

What I didn’t tell her (but will later — she was running behind for school) is that this was NOT my normal look. This was after my roommate Angi plucked my brows (for the first time ever!) and put some “more involved” makeup on me.

I remember being in sweatpants and was like “Well now we need to go out somewhere!” but it was like a Tuesday night or something.

Katie REALLY wants a cat.

I found this note on her door this morning.

Felix is at PetSmart and has been there for longer than normal. She knows I’d love an orange tabby…so she keeps trying to convince me.

But unfortunately it’s just not gonna happen. He’s not declawed. Tom is allergic and doesn’t want to take meds every day (again). I’m leery of adding a cat to two dogs. And I’ve fully enjoyed no more litter duty.

Oh Ivy… that’s not a toy.

Sooooo Ivy just brought a baby rabbit into the house…in her teeth. It wasn’t quite dead…so Tom had to kill it. Katie was a mess. Poor Ivy, I’m sure, just thought it was a toy.

We went outside to look for more (just in case) and Tom found the nest (and another bunny). As he was moving it outside the fence (to be near where we saw the mama bunny), I almost stepped on this one hiding in the grass.

We relocated that one, too.

Friday Fave: Native shoes

Posted on by

Time for a new thing — Every week I’m going to (try and remember to!) share one of my favorite things!

This week, it’s one of my favorite pairs of shoes—from a brand called NATIVE!

I initially had something similar but off-brand and the color started wearing off pretty quickly (and looked awful) so I decided to spend the money on these…and I couldn’t be happier! I had to look back this morning to see when I bought them—and it was November 2019!

✔️They are kinda like Crocs (material wise) but look more like regular shoes!
✔️They go through a machine wash well.
✔️They don’t have a ton of cushion but it’s enough to make my annoying feet somewhat happy.
✔️There are a ton of different styles and colors.
✔️I got mine directly from Native but you can get them tons of places (Native or Amazon being two).
