coffee!

Hello everyone! 
If you know me at all, you know that I'm addicted to caffeine! Whether its from coffee or Diet Coke, I have to have my caffeine fix each day. 
With that being said, I'm obsessed with Caribou Coffee (have been since about the age of 12), and lucky me had a job interview there today! 
On an even brighter note, I got the job!! :) 
I'm so excited to be working there!

Guacamole

Hello everyone! 
I figured since it's been such a beautiful summer, I'd made some delicious guacamole :) 
I used Alton Brown's recipe (from the Food Network!) and it was SO good. 
  • 3 Haas avocados, halved, seeded and peeled
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
  • 1/2 medium onion, diced
  • 2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
I hope you guys enjoy this recipe as much as I did :)

Happy Monday!

I hope everyone had as good of a weekend as I did! :) 
I went down to Winona for the weekend to visit, and even though it was a little weird being back, it was so nice to see my friends down there again! 
I got a chance to see Megan again and it was SO much fun, although I didn't take as many pictures as I wanted ;) 
I also got a chance to eat at Bub's again and it was nice to be able to see some of my ex co-workers again, I didn't realize how much I missed that place.

Erin Condrin!

Today I FINALLY got my last birthday present in the mail, my Erin Condrin planner! :) 
I seriously have been waiting for the planner for WEEKS! 

I have more pictures of it on my instagram :) 
It's similar to the old design of the planners from last year, with a few minor (but great) changes.
I seriously cannot wait to plan my entire life for the next 12 months in this thing! 

I'll post another blog about my planner (probably in a couple weeks, when I get some of the pages filled out), and tell you all how much I like it :)
