I am actually typing up this blog post over the weekend because I know my week will be a little crazy thanks to my NYC travels. (I hope to share a recap of my trip on Thursday.) I still wanted to keep things fresh on the ol’ blog and share something with you today though, so I must thank Kristin for bringing the fun Currently survey that’s been floating around the blog world for years to the forefront of my mind.
I did something similar on PBF back in 2013, so why not revisit it now? It’s a pretty self-explanatory survey, so feel free to participate and play along in the comments section!
Here we gooooo!
CURRENTLY…
- Currently Cooking…
Frittatas. You guys probably already know this by now, but I’ve been on a HUGE frittata kick for months. I make a frittata or egg muffins almost every Sunday night for an easy reheat-and-eat breakfast during the week.
- Currently Anticipating…
Reuniting with all of my best friends from college at the end of the month! We are getting together in Clearwater, Florida to celebrate my friend Leah’s son Theo’s first birthday! (Theo was in Leah’s belly in the above pic… And Chase was in mine, but I was only around 14 weeks pregnant at the time!) I cannot wait to celebrate such a special little boy and get Theo and Chase together for the first time. I’m counting down the days!
- Currently Listening To…
Adele’s latest album. You guys, I just can’t stop. Every time I take her CD out of our kitchen CD player (yes, we still own a CD player), I find myself missing Adele. So I put the CD back in again. Ryan thinks her whole CD is wildly depressing but I think he’s wildly wrong. It’s perfect.
- Currently Craving…
Ben & Jerry’s Oatmeal Cookie Chunk ice cream. Oh how I wish the people over at Ben & Jerry’s would bring my favorite ice cream flavor EVER back from the Ice Cream Flavor Graveyard.
And just because I’m a psycho about this flavor, I actually did some research a while ago to try to figure out WHY Ben & Jerry’s would get rid of such a phenomenal flavor and apparently the supplier who used to make the cookies in oatmeal cookie chunk stopped making them and they couldn’t find oatmeal cookies delicious enough to replace them, so the flavor was discontinued. I kind of wish they would let me go on an oatmeal cookie tasting spree for them to find a proper oatmeal cookie replacement. I think I am up to the challenge.
- Currently Drinking…
Archer Farms Caramel Macchiato coffee with a splash of coconut milk/almond milk and a splash of Fairlife whole milk. Every morning, baby!
- Currently Day Dreaming About…
A vacation! Ryan and I are itching to get out and explore somewhere new as a family this year and need to get a trip on our calendar.
- Currently Indulging In…
Ice cream. Always, always ice cream.
- Currently Avoiding…
Taxes, sending out invoices, tracking blog expenses… Pretty much anything financial.
- Currently Needing…
A haircut. A pedicure. To stop avoiding my taxes.
- Currently Coveting…
A pair of peep-toe wedge booties. I found the exact pair I wanted three different places (White Plum + Nordstrom + Amazon), but they were ALL sold out of my size, so now I’m on the hunt! I also really like the above pair that I found on Pinterest, but there is NO image source and I have no idea how to find them! So, if you happen to see a pair of peep-toe nude booties that look like either of the ones pictured above, please let me know.
- Currently Loving…
Being a mom. Cheesy but true. And also awesome since I had a lot of anxiety surrounding whether or not I’d honestly enjoy being a mother since I’ve never been a huge baby person. I never really saw myself loving all the baby stuff as much as I have, but oh my goodness Chase has flipped my whole world upside down for the better. I’m a hot mess, I forget things left and right and I have basically zero time to myself, but I wouldn’t change it for the world.
- Currently Reading…
Better Than Before by Gretchen Rubin. I love the way Gretchen’s books encourage me to think and become more self aware. I’m not too far into this one – only about a third of the way through – but I am really enjoying the way Gretchen focuses on habits as a way to foster happiness in our lives. (For those who have read it, I am totally an “Obliger.”)
- Currently Watching…
The Bachelor is the only show I’m currently watching, though Ryan and I are hoping to start the latest season of House of Cards soon! I think Ben and Lauren B. are adorable together and seem very compatible. I’m also beginning to wonder who they will pick for the next Bachelorette. I feel like Caila must be in the running since she was in the top three but there’s something about her that seems forced and almost Britt-ish to me. (Britt as in Britt from Farmer Chris’ season of The Bachelor.) I can’t put my finger on it, but I’m hoping they go in another direction… Maybe one of the final two? Bachelor fans, who do you think Ben is going to choose? Who do you want to be the next Bachelorette?
