Size 00

Dear Gap,

Size 00 isn't a size, it's a pipe dream...

Thanks,
Leslie

Return of the Macy's

I am returning the donut maker from Macy's...I think the thought of mini donuts and the pictures on the box are much nicer than the actually product produced.

Time to make the Donuts

So...I am totally into protein right now, but on my way home from work, I am stopping by Macy's and picking up a Bella Cucina Mini-Donut maker....it's on sale for $19.99 and I have a $25 reward thing.

I am so super excited. How fun is this going to be when I entertain. My favorite part of this is that Macy's tries to pimp this as a healthily choice because the donuts are baked, not fried. I am pretty sure the health thing will go out the door when I cover those little things in icing and chocolate...he! he!

Here's the link...since I couldn't get the picture to link.

This is my happy face!

My BFFF often times is super thoughtful and be-gifts me books that she is either reading or has read and has found inspiring. Her most recent book gift is The Happiness Project by Gretcen Rubin. She actually gave it to me several months ago, but sometimes I have a hard time reading a book that isn't on my iPod...ha! ha!

So I just found out that I have my HS reunion in nearly 2 months and I have got to get my myself in shape both physically and mentally. So today marks a new day...super hardcore work-outs and major protein, with very little bread. And then finding the best me....and that is where this book comes in. Last night I sat on my front porch reading the book about how the author, Grethen, took a year of her life and tried to become a happier, fuller version of herself. To begin with, she was not unhappy (neither am I), but she wanted to appreciate and live her life fuller (which I should really try myself.)

Ironically I also got an email from one of my favorite stores, Anthropologie, pimping the same book. So I figure if my favorite girlfriend and my favorite store liked it, I am going to LOVE the book. Stay tuned!

Here we go....
