Hodge Podge of Sorts...

I couldn't be more thankful that it's Thursday...
This week, although short, has been extremely busy/stressful/overwhelming. I bet a good handful of you are feeling the same way too. Let's just bust through today, get to Friday, and enjoy the weekend!

So I figured I would share quite the miscellaneous hodge podge for today. Lot's of fun things going on and random nuggets for you to enjoy!

One more thing! If you haven't entered my Bondi Band Giveaway - this is your last day! Don't miss out - especially you healthy workout girls!! - winner will be announced tomorrow!


{ Meg's Miscellaneous... }



1) Car Shopping

Many of you so kindly follow me on Twitter, so you must have seen my car shopping tweets over this last week. Well, my poor little Escape is pretty close to biting the dust, so I've been in a whirlwind of test drives and scouring the internet. My current focus/dream car? Jeep Grand Cherokee!




I'm very thankful that my Escape has lasted me this long and been paid off for a few years! She's held up through the many drives back and forth in college, in between OKC and KC when Adam and I were dating long distance, and now for my fabulous job that takes me all over the place weekly.

I've never had a leather interior, heated seats, a sunroof, or anything utterly fancy, so the idea of possibly finding something fun has me excited... and a little nervous! :)



2) Cozy Wishes

So very thankful to have put my humble little crocheting hobby to good use by opening my Cozy Couture Headwraps Etsy shop. Not only has it been fun to have people to create custom gifts for, but it will be nice to have a teeny weeny bit of extra income to assist with my upcoming car payments! Oy!






I'm hoping if any of you have been thinking of placing a Cozy Couture order, that you will hop over and visit my shop! With this freezing cold weather you may need some super cute, girly, winter accesories, right?



3) I'm Addicted to TV

Seriously. It's borderline embarrassing. This being said, I don't ever watch shows when they're actually on, so I'm technically a DVR-aholic.

+ Glee
+ Modern Family
+ New Girl
+ Kim and Kourtney Take NY
+ Real Housewives
+ Cupcake Wars
+ Four Weddings
+ Scouted
+ etc.

This is getting ridiculous.

The other night I just wanted to watch the news, but I couldn't unless I cancelled one of the two recorded shows already taking over. I need to find a TV rehab STAT.



4) My Best Friend = Engaged

Yes, my sweet bestie, Lo, got engaged last week. In germany. In a castle. Say whhhaaaattt?? Out of anyone in the world, that girl deserves all the happiness life can offer.

Lo is kind, ridiculously smart, overwhelmingly thoughtful, hilarious, stunningly beautiful, unique, and 100% genuine. Such a rare gem of a friend! Love her so very much and can't wait for wedding pallooza!



5) Thanks for the Fancy Dinner, Groupon!

I haven't made a Groupon purchase in a month or so, but today's was a great deal for a really upscale restaurant here in KC. The food looks to die for, it would be perfect for a fancy date, Valentine's Day, or a nice occasion... consider it purchased! ;)





Are you on Groupon? Bought any good deals recently?



6) My Boyfriend's Back & You're Gonna Be in Trouble...

Haha, I had fun with that title, can you tell? Still giggling over here... wow, I don't think I get out much apparently. Anyway, yes my sweet man is back from a business trip, so I'm excited to make these Turkey Taco Lettuce Wraps that I had saved on my Pinterest. They look so yummy and are super healthy!

What's in your noggin' today? Any crazy thoughts?

Good luck picking out a car! That Groupon sounds like it will be a lot of fun to use. I need to check out your giveaway!

Car shopping is hard, even if you know what you're looking for! My husband wanted a truck, then we finally narrowed it down to a Tacoma, then we searched FOREVER to get the one he wanted.

I love your shop, I have looked a few times but unfortunately, knitted clothing isn't very helpful in Hawaii. I need to move to somewhere colder!

And congratulations to your friend! Any girl who gets a proposal in a castle is a lucky one in my book!

Wow! Such awesome things that are happening in your life right now. I strongly dislike car shopping. Good luck in that department. I hope you get your dream car!
