If I'd done a weekend recap...

... I would have talked about all the fabulous baking I did with friends (and I would have posted pictures of it all-duh). :) And how a minute makes an insane difference in cookie land. (Might have burned a batch. It is what it is).

...I would have mentioned that I saw The Tourist (with Angelina and Depp... I accidentally called him Keanu earlier. Whatever. You knew what I meant. I was blogging at lunch...haha :)) with Eric and liked it more than I thought I would. A little slow at times, but good ending that made up for it. :) Still excited for the Reese W movie coming out this weekend. (I love Reese!) :) Eric and I had a bet over the Pioneer W0man and Bobby Fl*y showdown...and I won. Sooo I get to pick a movie, and I pick Reese's. *victorious smile*

...I would have given a shout out to my wonderful mother who had a birthday! We went to dinner on Saturday to celebrate. :)

...I would have talked about how I hung out at a friend's house for her husband's birthday on Friday night. :) I love that us girlies used to hang out in the kitchen at these things, drinking wine and chatting, and have now now transitioned into the play room, watching the kiddos play, etc...but we're still drinking the wine and chatting... haha! We're in trouble when they start repeating everything we say...

...I would have talked about Brooke and I having a fun dinner with Angela, who was visiting T-town on Sunday night!

So, yeah.. pictures of some of that to come when I get on the ball...

Even though I neglected my weekend recap blogness, I've been loving having time in the evenings this week and have...

... gotten ALL my Christmas wrapping paper, bows, etc, from Hobby Lobby b/c it's all 50% off right now! (through Sat!) LOVE the paper I got. Now if only I could master the wrapping. I'm so-so at wrapping. And I used to wrap gifts at a store I worked at in college (Crabtree and Ev#lyn) so you'd think I'd be good at it. Nope. The ends of my packages always look...well... we don't need to comment on it. At least my paper is pretty this year! ha!

...knocked out the LAST bit of Christmas shopping, including a couple hostess gifts! Well, okay okay.. I still have to get G dog a couple things (she always gets a new Christmas toy + bones), but am otherwise done. :)

...celebrated one of my best friend's 30th birthdays with some girl time over vino and yummy food on Monday night! I'm bummed that we didn't take pics, but we definitely had a blast celebrating Jenny's dirty thirty! I'm fairly certain some of our tipsy interesting conversation entertained and/or offended the table next to us..haha!

So yeah.. happy Wednesday, peeps! Hope your week is rocking along and you're knocking out the last of your holiday shopping!
