Good morning!
We have a special visitor over the next little while. My brother in law Pete is here visiting from out West! Eric picked him up from the airport last night at midnight. So last night I decided to make a loaf of fabulous Brown Sugar Banana Bread. The house smelled awesome!
After that Eric and I got on our hands and knees and scrubbed the floors. Then vacuumed up our mess from stripping wall paper. It was a great workout. I appreciate any form of exercise these days.
Now it is time to announce the next contest! Weeeeeeeeeee.

I didn’t have a great sleep last night due to our baby…..errr….cat Sketchie! He meowed and played with his ping pong balls all night! And then when we wouldn’t get up in the morning, he meowed and meowed and meowed. I said to Eric, ‘Whose bright idea was it to have KIDS!?’ lol. So we got up.
I definitely needed a Green Monster this morning. I swear these drinks make my skin glow! I really think I have noticed a difference in my skin since I have been drinking them (a few weeks now??).

Do you see what I see?

I love my flight suit….keeps me safe and looking all Top Gun!
My favorite thing in my closet right now is my pair of 7 sevens which I got on crazy sale and fit my body amazingly.
My green hoodie…so comfy!
oooo I love my blue summer dress!!!! I have a contest up today:)
Ooohhh good question. I think my favorite its a short blue turtleneck dress that I have. I like to wear it with knee high boots when its warm enough :-)
my jeans that are now too big because of some of the weight I have lost. It shows progress!
I love my yellow LL Bean fleece vest. It’s my favorite thing!
I love my silky tops… they go with everything!
hmm…I would say its a toss up between my black north face fleece, my black scarf or jeans…I love them all and wear at least one of them most days!! thanks!

I love your oh she glows gear its adorable! My fav piece in my closet is a recent addition actually. My mom is an amazing bargain hunter and found the most beautiful pair of shoes ever for me! They are such a pretty shade of purple (almost have a soft shimmer to them) peep toed pumps that have this almost black ruffle on the back. I’ll have to post a pic on my blog now that I’m thinking about it because I just love them!
One of the benefits of green smoothies according to Victoria Boutenko (who wrote a whole book about green smoothies, called Green for Life) is getting a nicer skin, so it definitely could be the green smoothies. :-)
Ah I have work out capri’s that would match the hoodie perfectly! I need it!
My favorite piece of clothing is probably my skinny jeans. Definitely couldn’t live without them. And fuzzy socks!
favorite piece of clothing – my extra long yoga pants from victoria’s secret!
What a fun contest!!
I love the variety of subjects on your site, in particular fashion! Looking forward to more fashion related posts.
Favourite item in my closet? Easy:
My vintage Geoffrey Beene cocktail dress.
My fave thing in my closet has to be my totally worn in 7 jeans. They can be dressed up or down to fit som amny occasions and they are so comfy!
Ohhh mine has got to be this really simple white, cotton, breezy summer dress that I got at TJ Maxx or Ross for like $15. It’s perfect for the humid, 100+ degree weather here in Texas.
These orange Abercrombie and Fitch sweatpants that used to be my little sister’s and a Culinary Institute of America hoodie that looks sort of old but I just got in the fall…haha, I like to be comfy!
My AMAZING yoga pants from Casall! I bought them in the most amazing little shop here in DK that just sell dancing clothes and yoga outfits, and the girls working there can make you feel like a million bucks when working out. The pants make my ass look amazing, hugs my flat tummy and have exactly the right width as to doing yoga in them – perfect!
Your website just keeps gettin’ better Angela – good going :-)
My favorite piece of clothing would have to be my Juicy Couture sweat pants. They are so comfortable and fit me very well!
my brown sweater.. perfect to dress up with a belt, or dress down w/ leggings and boots :)
