I know you all already know this, but my new boyfriend came this weekend:

If this was your boyfriend you might never let it go.
I won’t keep talking about it, I promise, but can we just take a minute to appreciate how awesome it is to play on Pinterest on this machine? You can see all the pins at the same time. ALL OF THEM.

So you might think that getting a new computer would put an end to my weekend and mean I sat in front of it the whole time. Not so much! I’m proud of myself for getting out and actually doing things this weekend.
Friday (after setting up the new computer) I went to dinner with Bridget and then indulged my recent obsession with Slurpees and concocted the most delicious cherry + coke mixture. It was flawless and I need an intervention immediately.

There was also a quick trip here to pick up my brother and sister-in-law who were in town this weekend.

Saturday I got my crafting on and made not one but two Halloween wreaths bringing me to a grand total of 3 wreaths (add that to the list of things you bring up at my intervention). I can’t decide which version I like better:


Something tells me they’re not actually done yet…
On Sunday I finally got to try the infamous sushi place in Tyson’s. It’s like a dream come true – you sit, and a conveyor belt of sushi just rolls by. Whatever you want, you just take. I also managed to capture evidence of me hanging out with other people so this was a double win situation.

And, then, of course, my brother got this really flattering picture of me:

I think food was the theme of my weekend though, if you go based on my pictures:

Yes, I ate sushi twice in one weekend. That’s 3 times in the last week. Go ahead and put that on the intervention list too.
This morning for breakfast I had steak and a banana. It made me realize I have a serious question to ask all of you: Are you a “breakfast foods only” at breakfast kind of person? Or will you eat anything as your first meal of the day?
My name is Kate. I'm a makeup and coffee addict (and total Jesus freak) fighting to lose over 100 pounds. But there's more to life than losing weight. This is where I try to balance it all - and hilarity ensues.

I love this! I totally agree that you can eat anything for breakfast because I hate breakfast foods! I’m drooling over your new computer AND all your yummy food
Happy Monday!
I totally forgot about your hatred of breakfast foods! But seriously, who made up the rules that say when we can eat what? Who has time to care about that stuff?
Yay for your new computer! And I believe in good food any time of the day

Sushi on a train “conveyor” belt is THE BEST THING EVER! We have a place here called SushiLand. ‘Nuff said. Addictions smictions! SUSHI AND SLURPEES FOREVER!!
Oh, and I will totally eat steak for breakfast, but not chicken. That’s just icky.

If I could take my favorite sushi place of all time and add a conveyor belt I would literally never leave there except to get slurpees. Everyone in my life would be like “we used to have this friend, Kate…she lives in a cardboard box behind the 7/11 now…”
I have never had a real Slurpee. Shame. Also, the next time I am in NoVA, we are meeting at that sushi place. My aunt lives really close to Tyson’s.
We absolutely have to make this happen. If not this year then next year for sure (cause we’re getting dangerously close to mall avoidance time for the year). The sushi is not “OMG spectacular” but it’s still good and the novelty of eating off a conveyor belt makes up for what it lacks in creativity. And I can admit that Slurpees are not that great – until one is in my mouth and then I’m not fit to be in public with it.
