Monday Randomness

...Get it, because I used a random generator to determine who won my Gracie's Gear running top?!



Well, it's also Monday Randomness because Amy from Second City Randomness won the giveaway! Congrats, girlie!! Send your info to me (shesgoingdistance@gmail.com) and it will make its way into your mailbox :)



Thanks everyone for entering the giveaway! If you didn't win and still wanted to get at a piece of that top, you can find it in my shop. Lucky for you, it also comes in a pretty blue color:



Now on to my day of leftovers...


The morning started off with another piece of that hideous waffle and a cornucopia of fruits. Can I even say cornucopia if it's still summer? I guess fall's nearing closer and closer. So it was day two of ugly waffle smothered in frozen berries and their thawed juices, a slice of watermelon, grapes and the end of the butchered mango.



Enjoyed next to a cup of chocolate soymilk. I usually indulge in chocolate soy lattes if I have the time in the mornings, but it's just too hot for that here. Maybe I'll venture into the world of the iced latte, but to me, coffee tastes stronger when it's iced. Is that weird? Note the stemless martini glass. Move over Carrie, that's how I roll in the mornings.



Then the DirecTV guy came and finished up his job that was left partially completed last week, while Woodstock and I played catch in the backyard. After running around and doing errands, lunchtime came and went and I still hadn't showered. Yikes, I need a job.


More leftovers! Recognize this?



And yes, that's leftover orange mangosteen tea! I'm all out of my yummy Archer Farm's fruit teas. I think a trip to Target is in my future!


Dinner consisted of, big surprise, leftovers. We had two spinach chicken sausages left in the freezer and I wanted ravioli so J.D. got creative. He mixed up his tomato sauce, cooked the sausages and then threw them in. They went on top of spinach and mozzarella ravioli with a side of steamed broccoli and spinach. Wow, lots of spinach for one day. I hope I'm not green for tomorrow's interview.



The disaster of the meal, however, was the evening's beverage. We opened up a white bottle of wine given to us from J.D.'s parents. I nearly spat it out when I realized it was a SWEET DESSERT WINE. I am not a fan of ports or sweet wines. So that was upsetting to me. I dumped it into the sink and cracked open a Pilsner Urquell to go with my dinner instead.


After dinner we rolled up our sleeves -- once the sun set of course -- and washed our cars! Seriously, driving mine today was like reliving the Dust Bowl. I couldn't see out the windshield. Not the impression I want to make before my interview tomorrow. Despite the lack of sun, it was still pretty frickin' hot. I got super disgustingly sweaty during our 30 minute two-car wash and a trip to YOGURTLAND was very much in order. Much to my content, they had a new, awesome flavor: passion fruit lemonade. Deeee-lish.


I leave you now with some images of the beginnings of my bathroom décor. It mirrors the brown/teal scheme of our bedroom, but with a FRENCH bathroom-y beach feel. Thank you, Wal-Mart!



Good night, my loves! xx
