Monday
Gap tee - Ann Taylor black cashmere cardigan (ebay) - Target scarf - Levis jeans - Sesto Meucci boots
In an effort to fit into my jeans a little better I am going back to what has worked in the past — no eating outside of meals. I already feel better. I am also treating myself every day after lunch to one small caramel. I bought two boxes of caramels after reading about them on My French Corner’s blog: http://my-french-corner.blogspot.com/2010/01/fleur-de-sel-caramels-at-whole-foods.html
They are a wonderful way to incorporate a simple pleasure into my day.
What do you do each day for a simple pleasure?
My simple pleasures are knitting and drinking black tea — although I’ve had to switch to decaf recently on account of my heart becoming a little too excitable. Tea is my comfort food, the one thing I truly could not do without.
my simple pleasure is sitting at a properly prepared table (with cloth napkins and all), and eating a small piece of very good 85% chocolate after dinner. It’s so indulgent!
My simple pleasure, in the evening after the dishes are done and the house tidied up, is to lay on the couch with the cat on my chest and the dog at my feet, reading a book. I’ve also rediscovered the “womanly art” of embroidering, which I was taught as a child by my mom and had abandoned long ago. I just love it, it’s like painting with thread!
You look luminous in that aqua blue. I’m trying to discover my signature color and hope to find the perfect shade that flatters me as much as that blue flatters you.
