Miscellany Monday

{one} at staff retreat (and yes we did end up in matching tshirts) I had my eyebrows threaded by a coworker who used to do it in Egypt. I'm amazed. Super quick & painless. My eyebrows are looking hot now.

{two} Oscar (my dog) met his first really baby last night. Our friends Annie & David brought over little 4-month-old Liam & Oscar was jealous and a wee bit unhappy. I'm gonna have to break him of that. I kept telling him -- "Babies are our friends! We like babies!"

{three} a super fun thanks to Regan from A Fairytale of Photos for the I Heart Your Blog award and to Nicole from Scraps of Color for the Blog of Substance award. Y'all should definitely check out their beautiful blogs.

i heart coffee

{four} I am re-addicted to coffee. I had been sober for about 3 years. I have relapsed. I blame it on heavy whipping cream, honey, and cinnamon (and especially in a mug made by hubs).

{five} we bbq again this weekend. Mom was out of town with her sisters & cousin (hi leslie!) so dad popped over from west TN and brought his farmer's market finds with him. yum, yum, & fun! Quick Pickle recipe to come...

{six} don't forget to enter my Pretty Things by Meg giveaway! Ends this Thursday. Also, here is a sneak peak for upcoming giveaways:

  6. hmm eyebrow threading scares me a little bit. i see people getting it done in the mall, and they look very angry.

    that excites me you were wearing matching t-shirts. nothing says unity like wearing the same clothes.

    happy monday! <3

  13. Threading is amazing! When we lived in Turkey that's how they did it--for super cheap!

    Now I'm really missing Turkey...

    And cute mug :)

  15. so you talk to your dog like he can understand you too? hehe, love it. our dog has had only one experience with babies and he was oh-so cautious and intrigued. it was pretty darn cute. i think i wanna try adding some honey and cinnamon to my coffee now, sounds yummy!
