The Little Things
June 5, 2015

Happy Friday! To celebrate the start of June, I painted my nails with one of my summer favorites: Ate Berries In The Canaries by OPI. I first tried this color two years ago when I got my nails done, and immediately fell in love with the color.

The ring finger glitter is Essie’s “on the rocks”, which I also love.

Here are a few random facts for you:

1. I am watching “Gossip Girl” for the first time, and I’m really enjoying it so far. I have no real answer for why I didn’t watch it at the time, but I’m just starting Season 3 right now and am loving having conversations about the show with friends who have previously watched it.

2. Let’s talk about my phone for a minute. I’m still using my iPhone 4s that I got back in 2011, and it’s really dying a slow death. I used to say that I had to wait until after Mexico to get a new phone (I didn’t want to take a brand new phone to Mexico), and now I’m just not getting one out of stubbornness. Sending a few texts drops my battery almost 10%, and I don’t even go to a friend’s house or out to dinner without my phone charger. It’s ridiculous.

3. I went to Chick-fil-A last weekend, and at that point it was my 4th time there in 10 days. That’s a real problem, but also… no shame 🙂 I love their chicken, waffle fries, sweet tea, and lemonade, and I certainly had my fill of it! I wish I lived closer to one!

4. I finished Guiliana Rancic’s “Going Off Script” last weekend (I listened to it on audiobook, which I love for autobiographies because I love hearing the stories in the author’s own voice). I watched a number of the seasons of her show “Guiliana and Bill” so I knew a lot of the stories she told, but I still enjoyed the book. For any fans of her or the show, I’d definitely suggest the book. It’s a great summer time read.

5. On numerous occasions I’ve talked about Oreo cookies here, and today I’m doing it again. Have you tried the Limited Edition S’mores cookies yet? They are DELICIOUS and so great for summer.

Now it’s your turn to share: Tell me one random fact from your week! Have you ever watched Gossip Girl?

    I have a 5 and my battery is ridiculous. I have to take my charger to work with me every single day. I have never been to Chick-Fil-A! We just got them in CT but the lines are still so long that we haven’t gone yet. Someday soon, I hope!

      I don’t like having to remember not only my phone but also my charger and my external battery. It is, like you said, ridiculous. I hope you get to try out Chick-fil-a soon!

  2. Gossip Girl was one of my FAVORITES!!! I was really sad when it ended. Are the S’mores Oreos really as good as they sound? Is the cookie part graham cracker?

      I’m REALLY enjoying the show. I’m just starting episode 4 of season 3 and there have been some crazy revelations lately!

  3. I watched the first few seasons of Gossip Girl, but then got out of it, not sure why.
