top 5 tuesday

So, I have been terrible about blogging lately, and I figured no one would notice since I didn't think anyone read it.However, Mrs. Emily Chapman brought it to my attention that I have at least one reader. Since I haven't been doing anything out of the norm, I couldn't think of anything to write about, but since I made the New Years resolution to be a bit more positive, I decided I'll write about 5 things I'm all about [and one thing I can't stand]...





1: Sushi. Anyone who knows anything about me knows about my [fairly] new found love of sushi. Brady and I have attempted to order a new roll every time we go, [usually once a week] but lately we have been getting stuck on the same old... Las Vegas, Philly, Winter, and Tempura rolls.

2. Ruffled Shirts: I am usually not girly enough to go for a trend that includes ruffles, lace, or shiny things... but lately I have been picking up button-up ruffly shirts left and right! They look great with jeans or slacks or skirts, and they have a subtle pirate appeal...

3. How I Met Your Mother: It's nothing new, I love sitcoms. Who doesn't? But HIMYM is so involving and real, it makes you want to move to NYC and become the character's friend. The cast includes, Alyson Hannigan, Jason Segel, and Neil Patrick Harris, among others. and is absolutely hilarious.

4. Gin & Tonics: It stands true as my favorite drink. refreshing, comforting, and easy to make, I don't see this G&T's jumping out of my top 5 in a long, long time

5. Forgive Durden's "Razia's Shadow": This album is awesome. A musical about love and death, [although it's really much deeper than that] it isn't your typical Romeo & Juliet emo cry-your-self-to-sleep-cuz-your-boyfriend-broke-your-heart bull crap. It's beautiful and incorporates the sounds of the likes of Say Anything, Panic @ the Disco, Saves the Day, Gatspy's American Dream, Portugal the Man, The Hush Sound and lots more...

And to conclude this blog, 1 thing I can't stand: People complaining about the cold weather in December. It's December... It's cold. I personally love the rain...
