Hi, I'm Rachel.

A few years ago I could barely boil water.

True story.

Determined to be a kick ass wife, I developed a love for football and learned to cook in my tiny Jersey City kitchen. I spend my days working in Manhattan, my nights and weekends chasing after a rambunctious toddler, and the hours in between cooking with my husband and feeding my TV habit...oh, and I blog about it all!

Thursday Thoughts

1. I have a 4 day weekend starting tomorrow. Woot!

2. In the wake of my Delirium withdrawal, I am now reading Divergent. My feelings on this are...eh. It's definitely not nearly as good as Delirium and compared to Hunger Games? No. Just no.

3. I've eaten about a million of these this week...

and these...

I can't stay away from the chocolate egg versions of candy bars, apparently.

4. Starbucks or Dunkin' Donuts? I had my first DD iced coffee of the season yesterday and it was wonderful. There is nothing better in warm weather than iced coffee. Yum. I would take Dunkin over Starbucks anyday.

5. Did you see they made 'Once' into a musical? I actually never saw the movie but am obsessed with the song from it.

 

6. Baseball season starts today. I dread this day from November to April 1. At least football only takes up one day per week...baseball is on like 100 times per week.

7. I'm debating on what color to paint my nails for Easter. It's a toss up between:

OPI's No Room for the Blues

and Essie's Lilacism

Thoughts?

8. Peeps!

9. Did anyone watch The Pauly D Project last week? What were your thoughts? I thought it was pretty boring, but he's still adorable and so I'll likely continue watching :)

10. colored jeans. I hope these are happening tonight!

11. I forgot to announce it yesterday...but the winner of the gourmet candy bar giveaway, picked at random, is Amy! Thanks to everyone who entered!

Time to head off to work...it's my Friday!!

What are your thoughts this week? What are you loving?

dunkin donuts is definitely superior to starbucks. i actually don't like starbucks at all - i think it tastes sort of bitter/burnt. and my vote is for the lilac nail polish!

Dunkin for SURE! (Sadly, I haven't found one in LA yet)
I love that Essie LIlacism - perfect for Easter!

Ah I definitely am a Starbucks girl... I always want to like DD iced coffee but just don't. Also, I loved the Once movie and we saw the show a few weeks ago, I thought they did a really good job of putting it on broadway!
