Highlights:
| Amanda's CRAZY eyes! "My mom told me not embarrass her on national television!" Womp, womp. |
| Ashley S. and her onion/pomegranate (also had crazy eyes) and trying gimmicks. Oh dear, God. I like her so much because she makes everything awkward! |
| The hot mess that is Tara - the sport fishing enthusiast. I called that - and I called him keeping her. Chris Soules is a midwestern farmer. Sometimes they like girls like that. I loved that she couldn't even stand. You go, girl. I will say, everyone hated her entrance, but I will give her props for it - it's probably why she's still around! |
| Kelsey turned out to be awesome. However, she's a 28-year old widow. THAT POOR GIRL. I can't even... that's awful! How am I supposed to handle this? |
| Make out seen around the world - Chris made out with his first impression rose recipient, Britt. While I like her, I don't LOVE her yet, and wasn't really into her crying at first sight experience. She really needs to pull herself together! |
Other Things
| GIRLS returns tonight - I'm so excited! I am rewatching the series today and looking back on Season 1, I totally remember why I fell in love with this show. It has taken a turn that I haven't loved, but I've stayed with it and I have high hopes for this season. To all you haters, take it from Shosh: |
| One of the few good things about the awful winter is being able to eat soup all the time. Tonight I'm making this mac & cheese soup (whatttt you can do that?) recipe. |
| You know you are getting old when you put "pillows" on a must have list. I have pillows for my bed, obviously, but never thought about pillows for guests. UGH! I want to be the perfect hostess and there I go not having pillows! Solved that issue, but wow. Who knew I'd be buying extra pillows. |
| I'm reading Empty Mansions right now, which was a Christmas gift from the boyfriend last Christmas, and I'm so angry at myself for not reading it until now. If you haven't heard of it, it's about a 100-year old heiress who lived her last twenty years in a hospital instead of her stately mansions. |
| The boyfriend & I will be celebrating 3 years together over Valentine's Day weekend (yes, he's the weirdo who asked a girl out on Valentine's Day) and we are thinking of taking a long weekend to enjoy a city together. We're debating where to go - quick trip so not west of the Mississippi, unfortunately - and it will be winter. So far we've thought about Pittsburgh, Philly, Richmond, or DC (two of which we've done, just never without visiting friends). Any suggestions? PS - NYC is out. |
