Define excitement

Mr. B and we were discussing the presidential election last week.

Or was it the week before that? Shoot. We swear the last two weeks have been one GIANT blur. Can you believe March 1st is this Thursday? We can’t even begin to handle that. Anyways, we were discussing if Obama had a good chance of being reelected for another term, which then led to more politic conversation that we won’t bore you with. But somehow, in the midst of debating what this country needs in terms of leadership, we blurted out that if the president called us asking for advice, we don’t think we would be that excited. Mr. B looked at us with an utterly confused face. He then said, “Seriously? You wouldn’t be the least bit surprised or intrigued?” we replied with assurance, “Yeah, we don’t think we would be that jazz hands excited.” Mr. B, “That’s a little weird. Okay, then who would be the one person you would flip out if they called you?” we quickly answered, “Giada, duuuuuuuh!” Mr. B, “Figures.” Moving on. We would love to pretend that this would be the week where life gets back to regular scheduled programming. Alas that will not be happening. We shouldn’t complain because this week is actually going to be a ton of fun. First of all, our little brother is coming into town tomorrow night to hang out until Friday. Then we all head down to Phoenix to for our Dad’s graduation this weekend. He is getting his doctorate in Health Sciences! We still haven’t wrapped our head around the fact that we will soon be able to call our dad Dr. Wurth. Weird. But cool. Even though this week won’t be completely “normal”, we figure we have today and tomorrow to do a couple of routine things. For starters, how about a fashion bathroom shot? You know you’ve missed us. Okay, maybe just a little? The wind in Denver has been crazy town – 90mph gusts on the front range! Is that even possible? Anyways, we figured we better bundle up today and wear a sweater along with wool pants. Black sweater: Gap Gray pants: Express Black cowboy boots: Sheplers Necklace: The Limited Purple and Silver bracelets: Dillards Plus, we had to throw on a little K-State bling since the boys played the Texas A&M Aggies tonight. Go STATE! We ran our typical errands after work…World Market for booze, Target for toilet paper, and Whole Foods for dinner. OH. EM. GEE. We almost forgot to tell you. Boulder is getting a Trader Joes in the next couple of months, which means Denver is on deck! Friends, you have no idea how flipping excited we are to shop at a Traders Joes! This is life changing! And breathe. Dinner was an oldie, but a goodie. We tend to always make some kind of Mexican dish during the week. Our Mom would always make enchiladas or tostadas when we were little. We're assuming because it was simple to throw together and can feed a ton of people. Mom’s are so smart.

Tonight, instead of making the usual beef tacos, we swiped it for ground turkey thighs. it’s savory and lighter! The little bit of extra fat helps the turkey to not dry out as quickly, plus it adds flavor!

Speedy question, does this happen in your household?

See ya!

P. S. Happy Birthday to our bestie Allie over at Our Charmed Caffrey Life! Love ya friend!
