I waited. And then waited some more. And now that February is here I’ve officially jumped on the V-Day bandwagon.
Is it a Hallmark holiday? Yes.
Does it make singles feel crappy? Yes.
Is there tons of cute stuff everywhere? Yes.
This year that last one won out. Take a look at all the pretties out there!
I harbor a fascination with ginger. I love its versatility. How it can be sweet and spicy at the same time, yet how the fresh stuff smells citrusy. Enjoy Ginger Week!
Let’s kick it off with something that’s sure to be tasty but remains a little unexpected: Ginger Cheesecake.

Loving this double initial gold vermeil letterpress necklace from Erica Weiner Jewelry. Super sweet for a couple or BFFs.

Happy Groundhog Day!
Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow this morning, which means we’re in store for six more weeks of winter. That just means a little more time to be cozy and wear bulky clothing. Okay by me!

I have yet to get back into a normal schedule after the holiday madness. Yes, yes, you’re completely right – the holidays were over a month ago. I just can’t seem to make it all the way back into the swing of things regardless. Maybe I’ve just got a case of the Winter Blahs.
This Weekend:
• watch the OKC Thunder game tonight with C
• finish triptych for wall over bed
• laundry(!)
• mail Valentines
• Super Bowl party at B’s (Here we go Steelers!)
• pay speeding ticket (eek!)
Happy {Super Bowl} Weekend!

It’s safe to say that I’m one of the biggest Steelers’ fans in Oklahoma. And come Sunday I’ll be making a fool out of myself – sporting my Jerome Bettis #36 jersey and Terrible Towel of course – at my friend B’s Super Bowl party. But we all know attire is only half the battle, the food is equally important. That’s why I’ve rounded up five of my favorite go-to game day eats. Take a look-see…
Oatmeal Banana Cake that’s slightly unexpected.
(Here’s a hint: the oatmeal is in the crust, not the cake!)

Posts from the first month of 2009 were awesome! Maybe I was just burnt out on the holidays, but there was so much fresh-ness out there and inspiration was running rampant. Enjoy January’s Mad Props!
