"Adore" able

Right now, I think I could make a really long list of things that I adore. 

For example, I absolutely LOVE cuddling in with a little bit of chocolate, a nice blanket and a juicy realty tv show.  Of course, in order for this to be as exciting as it can be, it must take place after Evan and Steve have gone to bed, the heat has been turned up and I put all the other things I "should" be doing out of my head.  Em and I were texting the other night as we watched the Bachelor.  She said that she was trying to work as she watched. Me?  NOPE.  Totally devoting all my attention to Brad. 

More things I adore?  Well, right now, I love the photo project that Jen came up for us to do. The rules:  We must take 12 pictures throughout the year.  The pictures must be of: a street light, a street sign, an appliance/tool/or hardware, water, something at a park, something holiday-esque, food, an animal, a flower, a plant/tree/or leaf, a word, and a free picture of our choice.  After the pictures are taken, we must compile them in any order to make a calendar that will be traded with another calendar in the end.  Totally LOVE it.

I also love: the pageant dad's on Toddlers and Tiarras, my new Shopoholic book, watching Evan pull off his socks, my sports bras from Fred Meyer - just tight enough for comfortable running at boot camp, the word "delicious," apples and cheese, adorable red and white kitchen towells complete with red and white hearts for Valentine's Day, my new blue-ish gray laundry room, braids, my flat frying pan from Kathi from Christmas a few years back (I am sure it has a fancy pan-type name, but I don't know it.  All I know is it is just perfect for making a few pieces of french toast for me and Evan!).  I love Duck and Goose children's books, fuzzy boots, side pony tails, Bridalplasty and the list goes on! 

Things I don't adore?  Well, I was kind of upset when I saw the cutest little neighbor girl, dressed in her girl scout outfit, pulling her little sister in a wagon, ready to ring my door bell and ask me if I wanted to order some girl scout cookies.  How on earth can you say no to a regular little girl scout, let alone one pulling her sister, IN A WAGON?  The reason that I was upset was not because I know she will get me (I am a sucker), but that I have already ordered four boxes from the little twins at Jen's house.  This means that I will personally have to order more cookies.  This means that I will personally have to eat more cookies.  This means that I will have to continue to go to boot camp.   However, I do LOVE boot camp, so perhaps that little wagon pulling girl can go into my other list.  :)
