Happy New Year!

Christmas came and went, and I did not blog. 

Why? 

I had a lovely dental emergency involving a root canal.
I'm still in the midst of it all. 

I'll save the gory details for an in person conversation if you're into that sort of stuff.
But just FYI people, I got an abscessed tooth because of childhood trauma to my tooth NOT because I don't brush my pearly whites.
Thanks. 

2010 has been such a mixture for me! The first half was...sucky but luckily I am finishing out the year on a high note! Oh I am so thankful for that. 

Tonight I am spending New Years Eve with some of my favorite people and I cannot wait! 

Here are a few of my favorite things at the moment.

 

I am currently burning this candle as I type this and it is so lovely! My dear friend Lauren bought it first and I just copied her but if you love the smell of the store Anthropologie, then this is your candle!

Ok, so this was also a purchase inspired by my friend Lauren. This is a Lily Pulitzer iPhone case and I love the design and the fact that I can actually grip my phone.   

 

Sometimes, a burger and fries is necessary. My family has been raving about this place for awhile and I finally tried it this week. It's called "Maple & Motor" and the food is delicious. If you're a tater-tot kinda person (which I am) then this is a great spot to get them. They also serve Dublin Dr.Pepper (made from cane sugar) out of their soda fountain and that alone won me over!

If you're curious, here is what the food looks like: 

 

My mouth is watering. 

Today I had an afternoon of shopping and chatting with Lauren and relaxing until the festivities tonight! It has been a much needed day. 

I hope everyone has a happy, healthy and safe New Year!
