Random Thursday: My Summer TV Lineup...

This week's topic is one that's pretty easy for me. Lin, Katrin and I want to hear all about...

I'm a bit pressed for time this week, so let me just run through a couple of shows:

There are others - Rizzoli & Isles, Unforgettable, Perception.... but yeah. That's my summer TV lineup. What about you guys? What're you going to be watching when you should be outside getting some fresh air?

Random Thursday: One Bad Habit I Just Can't Break...

 

Lin, Meg, and I are back! Sorry for all the RT drama lately, but we're back on track, and hopefully you're all still with us! Thanks oodles for being so patient with our disorganized asses. So without further ado, let's get right to it with this week's topic!

Oh man. Trust me to pick such a tough one! Okay, fine. Dish time. If I had to pick just one, I'd have to go with TV. I tried to count how many shows I try to keep up with in a given week, and had to give up when I got to 20. I know, a lot, right? Some of them I watch with J., others I catch up on while I'm blogging or in transit. So it's not like I spend all those hours on the couch, but still.... I could be reading the news or a good book during that wasted time! I am a bonafide TV junkie, particularly around this time of year. My fave shows are all starting up again - along with some new discoveries!

And that's just a few of them! For a longer list and to see photo sources, go here. Now it's your turn. What are you addicted to? Chocolate? Shopping? Spill!

Happier Day - with Tunes, TV and TEA!!

So y'all saw my 'sad panda' post yesterday, and thanks for the suggestions - I have had a dance party with some awesome new music thanks to Martha (you should check out 'Little Talks' by Of Monsters and Men, 'Black and Blue' by Miike Snow and 'New Shoes' by Paolo Nutini - which I love but never knew who it was!). I also spent some time watching TV in my PJs and favourite hoodie and ignoring everything and everyone as suggested by Katrin (though no chips - I was too lazy to procure them from the store!).

I also recently discovered a love of rooibos tea, which I never knew was so amazing. I may or may not have had two cups of the 'After Seven' tea this morning - it's an amazing blend of mint and chocolate with this sweet aftertaste thanks to the rooibos. I discovered this and the 'Spicy Chocolate' teas at a local place called Pekoe Tea Lounge, which is just a couple of blocks from my work and has a pie and tea special for $6.95 (I think). I may do a whole post on them with some pics - they have an amazing little shop that's so cosy to curl up and drink tea and chat in, a HUGE selection of teas - their tester tower is gigantic - and they have a whole bunch of cup & saucer sets and you get to pick whichever one you like. Super cute and funky. They even have gluten-free pies! I recommend the apple blackberry because it tastes just like summer. If you're in Vancouver, definitely check it out.

Anyway, between the tunes, TV, tea and bright sunny weather outside, I'm feeling much better today. I guess it really was just one of those days, after all!
