30 Day Challenge - Day 16 — A favorite food
I LOVE LOVE LOVE food! And not just because it helps me sustain life. I just thoroughly enjoy food. So picking a favorite is rather difficult!
One of my favorite foods is homemade macaroni and cheese!! It takes more time and effort to make than the stuff out of the box (obviously), but it is so worth the time and effort!
When I make homemade mac and cheese, it's always the recipe my mom used. The recipe is even in her writing, so I always think of her when I make it. I've thought about trying other recipes (I hear Paula Deen has a good one) and I'm sure it would be good, but it will never be as good as my mom's!
Cute side note - my brother asked me for the recipe one day so he could make it for his girlfriend! I thought this was utterly adorable and I had to share that with you all! :-)

30 Day Challenge - Day 15 — My celebrity crush
For this post, I couldn't pick just one person so I'm giving 2 - one is an actor and one is a musician!
First, the actor: Jimmy Smitts
Jimmy Smitts is the first celebrity I ever had a crush on. I remember being curled up on the couch with my mom watch L.A. Law and thinking "OOO...that boy is cute!". Then L.A. Law ended and I didn't really see Jimmy Smitts much any more. Then I moved in with a friend who ADORED West Wing, which he was in and I immediately fell in love again! THEN I saw him in Season 3 of Dexter fell in love even more!!
Now, the musician: Stephan Jenkins, lead sing of Third Eye Blind
I ADORE Third Eye Blind...they one of my favorite bands and have been since I saw them for the first time in 1998ish. This may be because the lead singer is HOT HOT HOT!! He is even more attractive in person.
Well, now that I'm all hot and bother looking at these 2 handsome men, I'm going to get back to work entering data...and day dreaming!!

30 Day Challenge - Day 14 — An old photo
So I realized I didn't post anything on Saturday so you get 2 posts today!! And because I cheated one day and just referred you to a previous post, you are going to get 2 pictures here!!
These are both VERY old pictures and I love them dearly.
These are my grandparents wedding pictures!! I love the sepia tone of the pictures and just think they are both gorgeous!

30 Day Challenge - Day 13 — Something I want to buy
I want to buy a Keurig!!
I've wanted to buy one for a loooooong time, then I had my first actual cup of coffee from a Keurig when I was visit my cousin down in Texas in the fall and I LOVED how yummy the coffee was and how easy it is! Then I went on a work trip to Chicago a couple of weeks later and there was a Keurig in my hotel room...LOVED IT! I wanted to find a way to shove it in my suitcase and bring it home with me!!
I have a coffee pot, which I use, but I'm not very consistent in my coffee making skills. I try to avoid making coffee for anyone other than myself. I drink it if I don't like it, but I don't want to subject others to my poor coffee making!
I have gift cards to Macy's, who happens to sell Keurigs, but they seem so much more expensive there (did I mention I can be cheap?!). One of these days, I will buy one...and it will be a good day!!

30 Day Challenge - Day 12 — Something I bought recently
Last night, before heading over to a friend's apartment for a night of Sex and the City and yummy food, I picked up a bottle of Barefoot Moscato!
This stuff is my new obsession!! It is a very sweet wine but I'm OK with that! Barefoot also makes a Moscato Spumante, which I have yet to try, but plan on doing so when I find a reason to have champagne!!

30 Day Challenge - Day 11 — A photo of me taken recently
Here is a picture of me and my brothers taken on Christmas Day 2010!
The one in the middle is my 22 year old bro and the one on the right is my 19 year old brother. And yes, the 19 year old brother is taller than both me and my 22 year old bro...and my dad for that matter!
This picture was taken on my cell phone, which doesn't take the best pics in the world, but it's of my brothers and I so I love it!
