well. this week has been going....less than fast. i can't tell if it's because i have a lot of work that only requires me to sit at my desk for 8 hours staring at my computer, or if it's because it's the first week of my new translation class. maybe it's both. either way, on tuesday, i was convinced it was wednesday until about 3pm, so that means my actual humpday is going to feel extra long. at least i had a dinner date with liser at the blue door pub to cure my tuesday blues (is there anything that a cajun blucy with buffalo tots can't cure?). so here's to the little things that make weeks like this move a little quicker.1) humpday recipe: pumpkin chocolate chip browniestotally still on that pumpkin train. that's what happens when you buy the large can of pumpkin puree. it sits in your refrigerator and mocks you until you find more ways to use it. ergo, this is how i will be spending my thursday night.2) humpday dress: anthropologie dots dressthis is a dress that can be worn in every season, just toss on some tights and a cardigan in the winter to keep warm and cozy! apparently there is a sale on at anthro right now, and this dress is a part of that sale....sweet temptation.3) humpday beverage: la croix sparkling wateri'm a little in love with this. it tastes vaguely like a pina colada. and it's weird that i love it because i really don't like pina coladas at all. i'm a daiquiri girl all the way. also, this has none of the health benefits of the coconut water that is all the rage right now. don't think i'm some sort of health guru. no, this just tastes delicious and is all fizzy goodness.4) humpday activity: wednesday night bingoMister Man and i have this crazy habit of going to play bingo like a geriatric couple. we are way beyond our years. but you better believe that wednesday night bingo at carbones is one of the highlights of our week. you eat pizza and you can win money! it's especially satisfying when you are there avoiding homework.5) humpday snack: candy corn and peanut mixthis can't technically be my humpday snack, although that was the original thought process behind this. i bought the two ingredients on saturday and made the mistake of displaying a bowl of it during book club that night. all that was left by sunday night was two peanuts and one corn. and now i'm not allowing myself to buy more until closer to thanksgiving. because good lord!maybe cracking a fake coconut water while baking some pumpkin brownies will help me get my days straight again...(see my past humpday happy lists here)
