simple things a through z

I’m so late on this – like soooo late. Like a month. But I don’t care. Enjoy this survey I’ve been seeing around the blog world for the last month or so!

A – Almond butter. Believe it or not, but I’m barely a peanut butter fan anymore. Coming from a girl who mourned the fact that she was “supposed” to give up the peanut butter in February, this is big guys. I begrudgingly finished a jar this past week because we had no almond butter.

B – Babies. Love my niece and goddaughter! They’re too cute for words.

C – Charlie. Enough said –he’s my baby.

D – Dancing. I’m a beast on the dance floor. Maybe not in a good way, but I love going to weddings so I can dance for hours even if no one else will dance with me (::ahem:: Husband).

I’m such a creep. Seriously.

E – Eggs, namely organic with omega’s from Trader Joe’s. I didn’t eat eggs for a few years (it’s in that vegetarian “gray” area), but I’m glad I started to again. Although make sure you eat organic ones, guys – my mom found an article about this the other day. Gross.

F – Family. Mine’s the best.

G – Groceries! I love shopping for groceries every week. It’s honestly one of my favorite activities. I’ve gotten some flack from others before about how I’m a grandma for this, but I don’t care. Sorry I’m not sorry.

H – Heat. I love the summer, and I love the heat outside. What I don’t love is when it’s over 100 degrees like it has been too many times this summer. No thank you.

I – Iced Coffee. Ugggghhh, the obsession ensues. How do I make it stop? How?!?!?!

J – John! (the Husband) I’m seriously surprised at how he can even deal with my ridiculousness on a daily basis. He’s a saint.

K – Ketchup. I’m one of those weird people that put it on everything – EVERYTHING. Last week my brother watched me dip roasted broccoli into ketchup, and I’m pretty sure he almost puked.

L – LOFT. If I could afford to buy out that store, I probably would. It helps I get a 15% discount for being a teacher.

M – Mama. You tell me who doesn’t still need their Mama every day even as an adult. I don’t know what I’d do without mine.

N – Naps. There is nothing better than a 20 minute power nap in the afternoon!

O - “online” friends. You all are the best.

P – Planning. I know that the majority of life CANNOT be planned, but the Type A in me wants to plan out every situation and possible outcome I come across. #freak

Q – Quiet Time. I HAVE to unwind every single day with a book in my hand, the lights down low, and the TV at a level where I can’t hear it from the bedroom.

R – Running. While I don’t do as much of it these days, it will still be my #1 form of exercise!

S – Starbuck’s. ::sigh::

T – Trader Joe’s. I don’t know how people live without them.

U – University Classes. Okay, this was a stretch, but I love to learn, and I’m a freak for being insanely excited to head back to classes this fall. Talk to me later when I’m trying to pump out a paper late at night when I want to sleep and I might say otherwise.

V – Vacations. There’s nothing like them – I’m all about “living under your means” so you can go out and have fun doing things. Each year since we’ve been married, we’ve made it a priority to go somewhere!

W – Water. I am more than certain I drink at least a gallon every single day. No wonder I go to the bathroom every hour (at least).

X – Xerox Machine. Another stretch, but can you imagine life without printers/copiers? I would just die.

Y – Yoga, which reminds me I have NOT done enough in the past few weeks! I need to get on that.

Z – Zebras? I have no clue. Are there other words out there that start with “Z”?

Question: Pick your own letter and tell me one of your favorite “simple things”!
