Me against I-95

We’re on the road and headed to our vacation destination! Woohoo!!!

Interstate_95_295_495

I’ll have a full report later on what’s its like to drive five hours with a fifteen month old… but first… I want to get some things off my chest…

Confession #1: I have an abnormal obsession with this clothing website! Its like a cheaper version of Anthropologie. Their clothing style is ‘current vintage’… Does that makes any sense?? If you’re in the market for a super cute dress, this is your place!

Confession #2: I made a batch of brownies for some friends last night. Without even thinking I placed the empty bowl in the sink and squirted a dab a dish soap. I quickly realized that I didn’t do my traditional “lick the bowl”… I took my finger and scraped the parts of batter that weren’t touched with dish soap.

Are you grossed out? Don’t be… I didn’t get any dish soap in my mouth… promise 🙂

Confession #3: The D.C. Housewives make me wanna puke! I’m a huge fan of Bravo’s Housewives Series… but D.C. is a huge disappointment. There’s only one problem… I watch it anyway! What’s wrong with me?!?!??

Confession #4: Right now, as we’re driving, I’m consuming a 32-oz soda fountain Diet Cherry Coke from 7 ELEVEN. I know its unhealthy, but it could be worse… I could be consuming a 32-oz Mountain Dew… 😉

I’ll see you on Monday from my vacation destination!

Now its your turn… CONFESS AWAY….

    I’m laughing right now because I turned on DC housewives for the first time last night and it was AWFUL. I kept it on for half the show and then turned it off. It’s kind of ridiculous!
    Confession: I didn’t eat one green food yesterday, all I ate what oatmeal, crackers, bread, pancakes, polenta etc. Wasn’t feeling it and needed that sort of day! Have fun on your vaca!!

    I ran 16 miles on Sunday and at the end all I wanted was a big Diet Coke from the soda fountain. I had it! I’m also sucked into the Housewives from DC. Why? No idea!

    Have a safe trip! I need to check out that clothing place…I think that may be my newest obsession! I am in desperate need of a vacation!

    You’re traveling five hours with a 15-month-old; I think you’re allowed a soda. 🙂

    I agree DC Housewives is terrible! But, yeah I still watched most of it!

    Hah, what great confessions! I love a good fountain drink sometimes – especially in the summer after work….so good 😉

    Something about road trips – I always have to either have a diet soda or a flavored coffee.

    My confession goes with my post from earlier this week. I gave in to my pregnancy craving for McDonalds.

    I check my mailbox 3-5 times a day, even after the postman has come by.
    I guess I really love getting mail.

    I ALWAYS have soda on road trips!! There is just something about them!
    Confession: I’ll be having one right along with you in a few hours! 🙂

    Have fun on vacay!! *See* you when you get back 🙂

    My confession (1): I taste test right from the pan/ pot, even when guests will be eating it. And I can’t really say I always get a new spoon ;P

    Havent’t watched any of the DC houswives, but (confession 2) I watch Jersey Shore. hehe AND, when out last Fri (confession 3) I may or may not have fist pumped a little at the bowling alley when the music was bumpin’. HAHA

    Confession 4: We’re going out again tonight and I can’t promise I won’t fist pump if I’m feelin’ the music ;D

    Estela, Uncle Billy bought a 20 oz Mountain Dew during our drive home (14 hrs) from South Carolina just to stay awake this morning!

    neat website!

    Sometimes soda just hits the spot. Especially on long drives.

  19. Coffee and a Book Chick said on August 21, 2010 at 1:23 am

    I cannot watch the DC Housewives. I don’t know if it’s because I’m from there and it embarrasses me, or if it’s because that Michaela chick is just drivin’ me nuts!

    Confession — I could sit for hours and lick Nutella out of the jar with my fingers only if I have no civilized utensils laying around…

    Have a great vacation! I rarely drink diet soda but once in a great while, it’s soooo good!
