Whew! How is it Thursday already?? This week has really gotten away from me but I wanted to catch you up on some things I am loving as of late.
1. The fact that college football is over. For now. Don’t get me wrong—I am a BIG football fan. Go Hogs! And Red Wolves! But the fact that football inevitably comes with insane amounts of food means my waistline needs a break… in a BIG kind of way. Between P’s Texas de Brazil-status grill and this spinach & artichoke dip that I made for the disaster National Championship game I can rest assured that my winter lbs will be right there waiting for me come spring. (Note to self: renew gym membership…)
2. My new Dolce Vita slippers! I know, I know… new shoes, how cliché? But really I am loving the exceptional customer service from one of my favorite online shopping sites. I ordered these shoes for almost 60% off the retail price plus the site gave me a $20 credit because of a problem with a previous order, which they took great care of. Here’s a tip when online shopping: if there is a “Chat with a Stylist” option, use it. Everyone I have encountered has been so eager to help and they can offer invaluable insight regarding size and fit, etc.
3. The nice folks at Downtown Memphis Flats! You wanna know why? Good. I’m going to tell you. These people are officially moving to Memphis! And if you know anything about me then you know I love them and I love when they are as close as possible to me… we’re talking share-a-honeymoon close. Is that weird? Anyway… What I’m trying to say is KL and I went apartment shopping with the help of Downtown Memphis Flats and found several great options in the brand spankin’ new Van Vleet Building. Which, lucky for them me, is a whopping 0.7 miles from me! So—congrats to them, congrats to me, congrats to downtown Memphis!



I think everyone should share their honeymoon with a close friend. Love you! Be there soon!
