WEEKEND RECAP

I had an amazing weekend.

For the first time ever, I spent the holidays completely sans family, in the company of friends and new acquaintances.
I really had a blast.

Christmas Eve myself and a small handful of work friends got together at a local sports bar... shared a disgusting shot and tons of laughs.
Christmas day was spent with my coworkers family and family friends eating ridiculously good food and adult egg nog. Oh, and one very intense game of Phase 10--which I kicked ass and won ;)
The day after Christmas was spent with my boss's family from Vietnam--where I was introduced to goat curry, yes, I said goat... IT WAS SO FREAKING GOOD! Seriously! Absolutely delicious!!! As was the wine and the company.
Oh, speaking of the wine... we opened a 2003 bottle of Chateauneuf-du-pape that was freaking PHENOMENAL [I've got a bottle of 2005 and I cannot wait to open it!].

I didn't get any pictures from this weekend... only a few outfit posts pre-leaving the house on Friday and Saturday.
I'll have to post them tonight or tomorrow...  (my Droid is acting funky).

Now I'm heading back to work--yay double! 

A REAL CHRISTMAS LIST

I think I just died a little bit.

Please, if you don't follow my twitter, you should after reading this article...
I reposted a link in my twitter and I'll just re-tweet my tweet for all of you.

HOLY CRAP! This is the funniest/most ridiculous Christmas List that I have read in a long time. Major LOLz! Seriously http://huff.to/gP7DTV

Seriosuly, you need to read this article. I just died lol-ing.

This poor girl's bf.
Very detail-oriented guy, I've got to give him props on his note-taking on her Christmas list.

Plus, I wouldn't mind a few items off her list.
I mean, hell, she's got some decent taste.

Oh, and check out the author's blog Velvet in Dupont, it is one of my new fav blog reads.

Don't forget to enter my Body Shop Giveaway!!

Next Wednesday is the deadline :)

WINTER WONDER-LUSTINGS

WINTER WONDERS by botrytisvin

I'm pretty easy to please...

especially when I'm pleasing myself...

with holiday wishes of boots, Ray-Bans, comfy sweaters, warm scarfs, and leggings.

For cheaper Ray-Bans than my Polyvore link provides check out Amazon--here [$80 is way better than $140].
And as for those boots... I'm asking my aunt Lise for those. I heart them and I'm pretty sure those boots heart me too. I would like them very much for Christmas, very much.
