I'm from the heartland, and I will always be a midwestern girl even as the years I've been living in Dallas fly by. These are my daily musings and interests for my family in Ohio, who I see far too little of, and for anyone else who cares what I had for dinner. Feel free to email me at jecgirlie@gmail.com.

You Can't Take the Ohio Out of the Girl

Shit Dallas People Say

Oh my God, everybody is doing these now.

That rug!  I like it.

I love charcoal walls.  I have them in my living and dining rooms.  Someday, I want a bedroom with charcoal walls and all white everything else.  With pops of color.  

Oh wait, we had all white bedding and then our 3 dogs licked their butts all over it.  Didn’t work.

why doesn’t my house have a swing in it?

I LOVE Calypso.  Wore it every day on my honeymoon and would pretty much wear it every day now if I could afford it.  Makes me feel like I’m somewhere tropical 24/7.  I’m considering applying for a job at the Dallas location for the discount.  I know the weekend manager, so hopefully she’d like to have me :)

Too beautiful. Honeymoon perfection.

Making a huuuuuge vat of curry.  My first time using the cast iron skillet.  The damn thing is super heavy.

After lazing around yesterday and eating out two nights in a row,

it’s time for some productivity. I spent the day doing laundry, organizing my gigantic tea stash, watering plants, washing dishes, updating my resume, and running to the store. I can’t promise I’ll cook a fabulous meal tonight, but we won’t be going out. I like when weekends are a balance of rest/rejuvenation and checking things off the to do list.

Also, I can’t even put on a real shoe today due to a blister in a bad spot.

So, I didn’t walk the dogs with Matt (favorite thing to do), and I won’t be getting off the couch. I’m going to be a lump. Movie time, yay.

So we ended up having the Mexican food and margs I was craving…

…and so today I will definitely be needing that nap. Too much tequila, ugh.

I had grand plans for Mexican food and margs, but now I feel like napping.

Such a dilemma. I suffer so.

Best pals.
