Work was busy this week, but it was my own doing. I wasn’t in the mood to be bored so I kept bugging my boss for more piles of work. What an oddball I am.
Speaking of work, a woman recommended BirkenstockCentral.com’s Bargain Page a little while back and I ended up buying some sandals from there:
I am in love with these shoes. I was never much of a sandal person because so many pairs I’ve owned were uncomfortable. But these, oh these are amazing, I don’t even feel like I’m wearing them! The first day I wore them to work the women in the office were all excited (this was also the day I came back from vacation when I had my pedicure). The woman who suggested the website even gave me a sterling silver toe ring to celebrate my feet freedom, what a sweetie! They’re totally ruining me ;)
Also speaking of work… being able to listen to podcasts at work has been fantastic. I’ve really been getting into the Speaking of Faith podcast (thanks for the recommendation
Friday night Michael and I headed up to Ortino’s Northside, where I enjoyed a bottle of Delirum Tremens (oh how I love that pink elephant covered belgian brew) and a delicious burger with mushrooms and swiss.

Yesterday I went to Whole Foods in North Wales to pick up some fish for the dish Michael is making tonight: Mixed Grill of Mussels, Clams, and Shrimp (without the chorizo, and with fresh green onions from my garden in place of shallots). I’m really looking forward to it, we picked up a bottle of Sterling Chardonnay to go with it and some nice, crusty sesame bread – yum!
And my tiger lilies bloomed:
