i am going on a date with my super cute husband tonight! it's a surprise late valentine's/early birthday date, that he has planned and has completely kept from me. i originally thought that it might be a date to the minnesota wild hockey game, because our first date was a wild game. you see, we normally go to a game to celebrate that anniversary, but we haven't been to a game together this year because of that darn hockey lockout (let me tell you, the state of minnesota almost lost it during that thing). but there is no home game tonight...so it's a mystery! i will report back when i find out what it is. in the meantime, here is some fun and pretty stuff for you guys to look at. happy humpday!1) humpday pinterest win: chocolate berry bowls.i posted about these on my humpday happy list a couple weeks ago. and i actually made them! and they were so awesome. and so crazy easy. i gave up chocolate for lent, but i definitely gave myself a pass to eat these with Mister Man on valentine's day, since he was home late after a work trip, and we had planned to celebrate tonight. i had to make something sweet to commemorate the day, right? (sidebar: one of the most common search terms that brings people to this blog is 'pinterest fail', but this is not a pinterest fail! it's a pinterest win!)p.s. the chocolate bowl mold is from michael's.2) humpday sigh of relief: my last two translation classes.there is no photo for this. but i am starting my last ten weeks of translation classes this week, and i am so happy. not that starting this week i will have homework for two classes, both of them higher levels than i've ever taken, but that in ten weeks, i will be done forever. and then i can start looking for that freelance paycheck. i may need to bring my humpday happy lists down to 1-3 items a week, because i become a lot less fun when I'm doing homework, but hey, you guys are cool with that, right?3) humpday jewelry: heart studs.i have been really into dainty little stud earrings lately. just ask my pinterest boards. i don't own any yet, because that's how i roll. i fall in love with something, and it takes me about 6 months to do anything about it. ask my chambray shirt. ask my green denim. i make really slow decisions. but these could be the thing to make me pull the trigger on my collection... heart studs 4) humpday spring outfit: brocade shorts.they are just. so. shiny. this pair from j.crew looks amazing. but it's sold out. because everything good always sells out and never makes it to the sale rack. which is the only way to buy clothes from that place...j.crew. girl. stop pretending you're chanel and bring the prices down a tad, how 'bout it? gold shorts here is another pair that is kind of/not really/but what can you do similar from the lauren conrad for kohl's line. hit or miss with that one, but what can you do when j.crew sells out of all their shiny things? ivory shorts 5) humpday shoes: polka-dot toms.i've never had toms before. but i do so want a pair. and these are just adorable enough, plus they would go with everything! you just can't go wrong with a cute pair of shoes that also lets a kid in need get a pair. why can't every business be a one for one model?? toms (see my past humpday happy lists here)
