WILW

It's time for my favorite link-up!!!

Here's what I'm loving today:
[one.]
white chicken chili kits.
  If you haven't tried one of these, get yourself to the store right this second and get you one. It's super easy to make, and I add in everything it suggests on the back. Holy smokes, I've been eating it all week and I'm STILL not tired of it.

[two.]
I'm getting into cooking again. 
I've been really bad about eating random stuff, and not cooking a whole lot. BUT, this past week I've been cooking up a storm!! And I even baked some blueberry muffins with my grandmother's amazing recipe. 
 mmmm! mmm! good!

[three.]
IKEA.
I actually did this over a week ago.. but I'm still reliving the amazing experience.
   [four.]
This gorgeous weather.
It's making me want to pull out my spring wardrobe!
So I did a mini fashion show for my mirror last night, trying to mix and match some winter pieces with my spring pieces.. but I'm not so sure this is fashionably acceptable. But I don't know.. I feel like the fashion bloggers always wear things I would NEVER find fashionably acceptable, and they totally rock it.
(Can you tell I've been reading too many fashion blogs lately?)

New Goal: Have an open mind when looking through my closet.
   [five.]

I found it yesterday and have been obsessed ever since.
The girl can make a mean stack [of bracelets].. and I would love to raid her closet.


Now go link up and share what YOU are loving my friends!

I mean, that is a gooooood lookin' man.
 I've been watching his SNL skits like nobody's business.. and he is just so dang hilarious!


and his videos with Andy Samberg? I. Die.
So funny!

One  of my favorites is the Cup of Soup skit, it was on the Best of SNL Christmas.. but I can't find it ANYWHERE online.
Lame!

Latest Obsession.

Meet the beloved game of Darts.
My new favorite thing.

I had never played a legit game of darts until we were at some bar in Athens.. and lo and behold, I'm a beast at it! So naturally, Jasmine and I decided our apartment needed to be graced with a dart board.
And yes, I do realize that sounds like something you would find in a guy's apartment. But we are proud of this thing.


It was a massive project. 
Involving a few trips to Lowe's, Academy Sports, and power tools. 
That's right, power tools.

Sadly no pictures were taken during this dart board acquisition and installation.. BUT what's important is the finished product. 

For the backboard we had them custom cut us a piece of wood at Lowe's, then spray painted it with Chalkboard Paint. Keeping it cute and semi-girly.. and the perfect spot for our guests to sign when they come play a game!

But in the meantime, we're just filling it up with funny quotes from our friends. :)


and if you haven't played a real game of darts...
my friends, you are missing out! Go get you a dart board TODAY and get on this.
It will be your new obsession too. 
I can feel it! ;)

Busy Weekend!

I have had SUCH a busy weekend.
but in the good kind of busy.

Friday Night my sweet Millie pup came to my apartment to spend the night with me. I just LOVED having her company, having a dog who looks at you with such adoration is one of the "simple" things in life that I love the most! ;)


I also got around to hanging the gift Ally made me for my birthday... (yes, from back in September..) I'm terrible. BUT, now it's hung! 


AND my wonderful roommate and I decided on a whim to run out and buy ourselves a Keurig. We've been talking about how we've wanted one for months now.. and it literally happened like this:

Me: There's a ton of Keurigs for sale on Craigslist!
Her: Really?! For how much?
Me: Some are only like 60 bucks...
Her: How much is a new one again?
Me: Let's check bed, bath, and beyond...
---We check the price---
Her: With a 20% off coupon that's not bad!
Me: Uhm.... they close in 30 minutes, can we make it?!
Her: I'm throwing on my coat! LET'S GO!!!!

and 30 minutes later our apartment was blessed with this beauty...
ohhhh yeahhhh

I feel like this was a wise investment.. seeing as how our semesters are going to be CRAZY busy with school work. The good Lord above KNOWS we will be needing some caffeine!

Now we're excited to try out all of the different K-Cup flavors!
Do you have a keurig?! And if so, what is your favorite coffees for it? 
We need suggestions!
