bakery adventure

There is a bakery near our apartment. It probably takes less than 5 minutes to drive there, but on Sunday, we decided to walk.

We drive to most places, so we are really not great judges on how long it takes to walk somewhere. But the guy guessed it almost exactly right! It took us a little over 15 minutes to walk there, and it really didn’t even seem that long since we talked the whole time. It was a wonderful, relaxed morning, and it was great to get some fresh air, exercise, and of course, the delicious cinnamon roll.

its only 3pm

The guy and I have been so productive today, and its only the afternoon. We went to the gym, made a nice breakfast, and have done so much wedding organizing! I just ordered a dress to try (ahhhh!), and ordered a bunch of paper for our save the dates.

standing up

My job involves sitting at a desk all day. Exciting, right!?

One of my co-workers and I decided to try using a standing desk instead, which is really just a tall table that we put our computers on. I feel like it is pretty well known now that sitting all day isn’t all that good for your body. We have been using our standing desk for a couple weeks, and I can say that my back feels soo much better. My feet hurt a bit sometimes depending on my shoes, but I feel 100 times better at the end of the day.

Our next idea is to get a treadmill desk!

Have you ever tried a standing desk? What did you think?

kiss the cook

I love Hershey’s Kisses. They are super tasty, adorable, and you can save the little kiss labels and sneak them into places. And obviously, the Valentine color ones are already at the store! We are getting close to the season of kissing, so I made some kiss cookies for the guy. Don’t worry, he kissed the cook too.

i would do anything for love

Good hygiene and health are a huge pro when looking for a potential mate. My guy inspired these little love note cards last year, because he would say sweet little things like these to me all the time. The cards are available in the shop, and ready to go for Valentine season, if you need to tell someone you care.
