Opposite sides
Happy hump day friends!
This week is zooming by. We feel like Christmas Day will be here in no time! Am we right?
Oh, and speaking of Christmas, we are having the hardest time deciding what to ask Santa this year. What are you asking for? Leg warmers? Boots? Trip to Capri? Something sparkly? More sleep?
Anyways, we thought about asking Santa for one of these guys:
– Cooking class. Cook Street, a culinary school down the street from us, teaches a class on how to make sauces. How bad ass would that be?!
– Ski wear. What do you think about these jackets? Fur, or no fur?
– Tripod. As much as we love standing on our kitchen table trying to get the right food shot, we need too upgrade. Plus, Mr. B and we can take this outdoors for some sick skiing shots!
– Light Room 3. We hear it’s a favorite photo editing out there! Only problem, we will more than likely have to hire someone to teach us how to operate the darn thing. Who has time to read a photo editing manual?
– Camera. We love Mr. B’s Japanese tourist camera, but we need something that’s between a dSLR and an iPhone. We thought about getting the Canon G11. Simple. Cute. Efficient.
– Running shoes. Enough said.
We think that’s a pretty good start. Oh yeah, can you recommend any good books to read? We have wayyyyyy to many fiance/business books and need to get some fiction going on in our life!
Moving on…
Todays work outfit was genius! {insert: toot of horn} Our attire literally came together in 2.2 seconds. This never happens people. NEVER. We wanted to wear something warm and comfy, but chic. We put on our skinny jeans, zipped up our Fergie boots, and threw on our new blue sweater. As we looked at myself in the mirror, we noticed something was missing.
Don’t ask why, but in that moment, we immediately thought of the color wheel. They say in fashion to use colors on the opposite side of the wheel if you want to create a more dramatic look. Hmmm…what color is across from blue? Oh yeah, yellow (thank goodness we paid attention in the first grade)! We grabbed our neon-yellow scarf from the back of the closet, and voila! fun outfit.

But our sassy feeling was short lived. Mr. B texted us around noon and told us that he had to head back to Hobbs, New Mexico to fix an engine at one of their pipeline stations. The worst part, he had to leave tonight! We were completely deflated the rest of the day. We hate when he leaves. We don’t mind the travel, but when there is no return flight scheduled that doesn’t sit well with us. Keep your fingers crossed that he returns on Tuesday. K? Thanks! After work, we raced home to catch Mr. B before he left for the airport. We helped him pack and made him a light dinner because he wouldn’t land until 10pm. Then we kissed him goodbye, sulked for a little bit, and then got to work on dinner. If anything thing could cure our blues it would be: – Dale’s Pale Ale
– Turkey burger with jalapeno cheese And watching GLEE! Peace!
