Behind the Scenes

Behind the scenes…what does everyone do in their down time? Or when their stressed? Or want to relax?

Here are a couple of things you may or may not know about me….

1. I bring muffins when I travel. It’s half because I like to share tasty muffins and half because I worry about starving. Is that weird? Last night I made apple pie muffins, peanut butter chocolate chip and pumpkin chocolate chip.  I brought some to work to share too. Don’t you wish you worked with me?? :)

2. I really love coffee, but sometimes I just need a huge cup of scalding hot tea to make me feel better. I hoard JOY tea when it comes out around the holidays at Starbucks. My brother in law bought me two boxes last year when I couldn’t find it anywhere else. I love him for that.

3. My tea has to be super sweet because my grandma used to make it for me that way. It also has to be served on a paper towel or napkin under the big mug on top of a small dish. I also have to drink 1/4 of it with a small teaspoon then sip the rest. This is the way my mom used to make it for me.

4. The first thing I do when I get home is put on sweat pants and really big obnoxious comfy socks. This results in my husband only seeing me in clothes other than sweatpants 2 days a week.

I loved hearing your reactions to my squirrel story…ick!

On another note, please take a moment to realize that every single day God gives us is a gift. Tell the people you care about you love them.

Have a great weekend, I’m off to Newport for a wedding!!!

I need my tea to be super sweet too. I drink french vanilla tea with one truvia and a splash of french vanilla caramel coffeemate.

My boyfriend is lucky is he sees me in regular clothes more than once a week :)

Enjoy your weekend!

Love this! And yes, I do wish I worked with you…but you’d probably hate that because I’d eat all the muffins :P They do make the perfect snack, and I always have to travel with food too! haha.
And amen to comfy sweatpants and socks (well, slippers for me!) I wish that was “normal attire” so that I could just go to work that way sometimes,haha.
Have a fun weekend!!

Haha I totally do the sweatpant thing too. I am not sure if it drives me hubby crazy or not, but hey, at least I am comfy! I also LOVE coffee, but just discovered dessert teas and am obsessed with trying to find them! I have never had JOY tea, whats it taste like?
