It's Just a Little Crush

July 21, 2010 by Julie 72 Comments

Sometimes I hate that I never update my iPod and delete songs that have been on there foreverrrr.

Other times I love it and enjoy jammin’ out to random old school tunes that I’ve listened to for years.

Old songs I was lovin’ today include:

  • How Will I Know – Whitney Houston
  • Crush – Jennifer Paige
  • Don’t Turn Around – Ace of Base
  • As I Lay Me Down – Sophie B. Hawkins
  • Ghetto Supastar – Pras

I remember listening to “Crush” over and over in my bedroom in junior high (okay, high school, too 😉 ) and thinking the words were so true.

“It’s just a little crush,
Not like I faint every time we touch,
It’s just some little thing
Not like everything I do depends on you…”

Didn’t it seem like back in junior high and high school people made the biggest deal about fleeting crushes? I’d have a silly crush on someone one week and then have a crush on someone else the next week… No big deal… Only to other people it was huge news when someone “liked” someone else. Who knew Jennifer Paige was so wise? 😉

Breakfast

Even though I’ve been crushin’ on Ryan for more than six years, I developed a new little crush this morning… on my breakfast.

Put a Little Love in Your Heart

I made my breakfast parfait by layering vanilla Greek yogurt with Flax-Z-Snax butter pecan hot cereal that I made last night and let chill in the fridge until this morning.

On top of the now-cold hot cereal, I added nectarine slices.

Yog + Nectaring + Cold Hot Cereal

Of course half of the nectarine went directly into my mouth before even making it into the parfait.

Side Tracked...

Seriously Delicious

It may seem ridiculous to take the time to make a parfait in a wine glass in the morning, but being able to see such pretty layers of delicious foods makes me smile… And who doesn’t like starting the day with a smile? (I know Annie does. 😉 )

Can you see why I’m crushin’ on this breakfast? 😀

Question of the Morning

Speaking of crushes… Who is your celebrity crush? If you have a significant other, who is their celebrity crush?

My celebrity crush is Ryan Reynolds (apparently the name “Ryan” is a pre-req in my book). Ryan’s celebrity crush is Jessica Biel.

And just in case your morning is off to a negative start, here’s a lil’ somethin’ somethin’ to make you smile:

    My celebrity crush has been the same since about the 6th grade… Justin Timberlake!! Which means I’m not such a big fan of Ryan’s crush!! Haha 🙂 My boyfriend’s celebrity crush is Natalie Portman.

    I still have Ace of Base in my iTunes too 😛

    I had the biggest crush on Jerry O’Connell. When I was 14, I went into the city and stood outside during TRL when he was hosting. He came down and gave me a kiss. It was awesome!
    I guess I still like him, not as much though, lol.

    Since the coffee machine is an automatic with a 24-hour clock, it may be pre-programmed to possess freshly ground
    and brewed coffee ready to the very first individual that arrives
    cup in hand. We encounter free-radicals on a daily basis
    through the foods we eat, the air we breathe and through radiation exposure.
    Also, regular ground coffee should continue in contact while using water for
    between 6 to 8 min.
