I almost can't rationally describe how much I adore these pants. The colored jeans trend intrigued me the first time I heard about it and, in my eyes, Gap has been seriously finding itself again after many years of weirdness. When I finally got to try these jeans on, almost every size was already sold out, and this highlighter yellow was the only color left that fit. I bought them. Don't ask me where I'm going to wear them. I don't care. I've since bought them in green as well, and searched the entire metropolitan area looking for the black ones.
I have no business daydreaming about renovating our kitchen, but somehow still spent 2 hours this past weekend inputing our measurements and picking cabinets and countertops. This is seriously good stuff. You can design in floorplan and 3D modes, and rotate and zoom to your heart's content. There is something ridiculously exciting about being about to edit your actual kitchen layout with the doors/windows/walls where they actually are.

3. Breakfast/Afternoon snack/Dinner when Husband isn't home
My love-affair with greek yogurt is going strong. I think I've sampled just about every brand, and Fage 0% is unquestionably unbeatable in my mind. It's not even worth buying anything smaller than the family size anymore, and the shelf life is pretty long (not that I ever come close to letting them expire). A sprinkle of Trader Joe's Pecan Praline granola, a drizzle of Berry Cream of Balsamic, and if it's an extra special day - a few chopped strawberries. Yes, please, thank you.
I never got into the Words With Friends craze. I love my iPhone (and my friends) as much as the next guy, but I've never been a keen scrabble player. A few weeks ago, I got sucked into Draw Something in a BIG way, and played almost constantly for a week during my vacation in California. Just as quickly as I started though, I got totally burned out on it and stopped cold turkey. Somewhere in the midst of all that, I discovered Scramble with Friends (which is basically Boggle) and we're still going strong.
5. Herbiliciousness
Is there anything better than the smell of fresh picked basil, mint, or rosemary? How about when the plants are $1.74 each and the limit is 20?
Did I buy pretty much one of everything? You bet.
Thanks for the excessive pesto in my future, Home Depot.
