Hey everyone, Happy Thursday! I hope you’re all having a good week and are ready for another round of Thursday Thoughts!
1. I went to World Market last week (I was actually just walking through to warm up on my way to the El) and I saw these infinity pashmina scarves (in the store they had teal, red and black), and they were only TEN DOLLARS. Obviously I bought one and you all should go buy one too. We can all match.
2. My friend from college, Amy Lee, told me one of the groomsmen from her wedding was putting together a “Bachelor Fantasy League.” Obviously I had to join. It’s beyond hilarious: we each pick three women that made it past the first night and then get points when they do things, anywhere from winning the show or being chosen as the next Bachelorette, to crying on camera, getting medical attention, or talking negatively to Juan Pablo about another girl.
3. I looked up the temps for Phoenix this weekend and I don’t even remember what people wear in weather this warm:
4. My newest television addiction? (other than the Bachelor…). The Carrie Diaries. I have no idea why I love it so much, maybe because it’s based in the 80s, maybe because it’s kind of like Sex and the City, maybe I just love all the outfits. Either way, I’ve caught up with the show and now have to wait weekly for the next episode to come online. Ugh. So rude.
5. My brother sent me this picture of Molly on Saturday. Apparently she’s become a yogi?
6. Please note that she has the same monster plush toy with her in all of the photos I posted this week. I think she has replaced me with a new best friend.
7. So I love me some Pinterest when it comes to inspiration, but I think I want to make a little inspiration board type thing in my apartment that I can actually look at all the time, rather than having to log into a website. Thoughts? Anyone else have inspiration boards? I’m feeling creative this week.
8. Speaking of Pinterest, there have been some really great food pins recently that I’ve been adding to my Meals Board and my Treats/Snacks Board. Check out this cake! I am actually considering giving this a whirl for book club next month…
9. So I’m sitting here this morning drinking this green juice I just made to kind of get rid of all the extra produce I have before I leave for the weekend and… it’s kind of gross. I should not be allowed to opening any sort of juicing store.
10. Have a wonderful Thursday!
Are you a fan of Pinterest or inspiration boards?
Are you a Bachelor fan? What TV show are you watching right now?
You’re the second blog I’ve read today that has mentioned carrie diaries, I also caught up with season 1 on netflix, and have watched the episodes hulu has available, its pretty good! Also, I love that quote at the end. Very inspirational.
Great quote, right? I need to keep it in mind!
I recently got sucked into watching The Real World. I know it’s horrible reality tv, but for some reason I can’t help but watch.
oh gosh if I could find the Real World online I’d probably watch it too!
The bachelor fantasy league… Sign me up for that! Too funny! I made an inspiration board about a year ago. I used pictures from magazines and I printed out the pins on pinterest. It’s a reminder of things that I want to do and things that I have done. I’m not even kidding half of my board are things that I have really happened.
Oh wow – that’s great that you’ve accomplished so much on your board!
LOVE that infinity scarf! I’ll have to go check out World Market. Although, I probably don’t NEED anymore scarves…I have way too many as it is!
Yep, Phoenix is pretty dang beautiful this time of year. I especially miss it when it’s cold and ugly here!
Haha you can always use another scarf!
I’ve been wanting to check out The Carrie Diaries! Now you’ve convinced me that I need to spend my time doing that this weekend 😉 Love me some SATC so I’m sure this would be perfect!
Ah you must watch The Carrie Diaries! So cute
Oh my goodness! I have a friend who has one of those Bachelor fantasy leagues! They have a huge party at the finale and hire a really hot male stripper to ride around with them in a limo and give them roses all night! So funny!
I’m not super crafty or anything, but my roomy and I have done really simple inspiration boards with poster board and cut out clippings of things or printed out things. I’m sure there are some much more inspirational inspiration board ideas on the virtual inspiration board site of Pinterest hehehe.
OMG that is AMAZING! Hahaha we won’t be having any male strippers – most people live in SC, but that’s so funny.
Love the randomness of this post =) very entertaining!
I have that scarf! My best friend got it for me in pink! Love, love, love it!!
Aw cute!
Haha thanks! Come back every thursday for the same!
I’m super in love with The Carrie Diaries. I can’t pin-point why exactly, but I just think it is such a sweet show. Always puts me in a good mood. I loved watching episodes back to back on Netflix, but now am in the same board as you waiting for new episodes each week!!!
Yes, such a cute show!
Your green juice can’t be any worse than the “smoothie” I tried to make last week with my extra veggie juice pulp. I figured I could blend up the extra pulp and make a smoothie out of it so it wouldn’t go to waste. Barf city. It was horrible, haha. I’m going to stick to making veggie pulp bread instead!
ewwwww haha that does sound horrible!
Bachelor/Bachelorette is my guilty pleasure! Makes the time go by faster when working out. That’s for sure!
Will have to check out the Carrie Diaries. Looks good.
oh and I love that scarf. I need to go shopping!
Definitely check out the Carrie Diaries – so cute!
That scarf is exactly what I’m looking for! We don’t have a World Market here, though, and I really wanted to match with everyone! Enjoy Phoenix!
Ah that’s too bad, I love World Market!
I’m pretty sure I have that same scarf! I got it for a gift from Jake’s aunt this xmas. Twinning ;).
Love the Bachelor, and I would love to be part of a Bachelor fantasy league. Obsessed.
Yea twins!!!
“it’s kind of gross” hahahaha omg and that is why i love you – well only one of the reasons 😉 Niki lays on Eddies yoga mat too hahaha we have so many pics just like that one of Molly
Awww haha, maybe dogs just think they’re comfy!?
You MUST create an actual physical inspiration board! It’s amazing to not only take the time to work on it (and figure out your areas of focus in the process) but to also have it there to look at all the time. I created one for 2013 and plan to do the same for this year!
I’m glad it worked out so well for you, I’ll have to think about it!
Yes! The Bachelor is awesome! I even listen to a weekly podcast every week on it – The Right Reasons podcast if you’re interested. Also, Molly is adorable – love. 🙂
omg. omg a podcast about the Bachelor?!!? YES!
Molly is too cute!!
and we’ve been there before with trying to drink nasty green juices, it happens 😉 usually add in lots of lemon juice helps!
Oh I’ll have to try that next time!
I am totally in love with The Carrie Diaries as well – it surprised me when I started watching it on Netflix. Didn’t even think I would fall in love. Also – I bought TWO of those scarves from World Market yesterday – black and grey. So amazing for $10!
Ah yes! Love the world market scarves!
