With May brings a coffee date. Time to catch up on things so pull up a chair and let’s dish a little shall we? I’m going with Starbucks Dark Roast, and of course I’d offer you one of my Brownie Cups, because I’m smitten. 
If we were having coffee I’d tell you this past week was a single parenting week. I was up super early (think 4am) the other day so, since the Caveman wasn’t here to do it, I put the trash out. There was a planet in the Eastern, pre-dawn sky. I’m thinking Venus?? Anyone?
If we were having coffee, I’d tell you why this time of year flies so fast. It’s because we’re all going a million miles an hour trying to keep up with every single thing going on. Here most of it has to do with the approaching end of the school year. I feel like life is reduced to checking obligations off the calendar, breathing a quick sigh of relief that I didn’t drop the ball, and moving on to the next. Not to mention the weather has been craptastic…unless you like cold rain.
If we were having coffee, I’d tell you I had high hopes for my superfood garden. The seedlings are doing well enough inside but it’s been far too cold and rainy to expect a good outdoor growing season. The garden plot is still SO wet, plus we had frost this week. No bueno.
Speaking of the end of the school term, I’ve reduced it to cheese. That’s right the cheese I buy to put on the teenager’s school lunch sandwiches. 14 slices of cheese until I have a High School Junior on my hands.
If we were having coffee I’d tell you I came across these in the Reebok catalog. I owned a white pair of the Reebok Freestyle back in the day (90’s??). My sister had the red ones. The teenager (a bit of shoe horse herself) looked at them and said she’d totally wear them now. Yeah. We were so cool.
What would you tell me over coffee? Have any styles come back that you wore the first time around?
I’m linking up with Meranda, Lacey and Rachel for the Friday Five, and with Deb and Coco for the Ultimate Coffee Date. Join us!
What are you growing in your indoor garden? I really want my own garden but I am so not a green thumb at all
Haha I was at Ross the other day and saw a pair of Treetorns (remember those?). I hadn’t seen a pair of those in years!
I’m glad the cropped jeans have come back…because most of my jeans are cropped length by default LOL Long leg probs.
Those brownie cups are so cute!
I’m loving the old skool Reebok sneakers!
LOL at the cheese calculations!
I do like those kicks. I have a pair of white high tops I haven’t worn yet because, well, white. And we’re having all the cold rain, too. Except tomorrow, it’ll warm up 20 degrees (still raining) and then cool back down 20 degrees the next day.
No kids and I’m still tired! Must be lack of vit D. Here’s to smooth sailing til the end of the school year for you.
I saw an article about how chokers were coming back in style, and other things from when I was in middle school. They always say that happens its just so weird when it actually does.
Enough of this rain! Its supposed to be cold here for the next week or so and Im not happy about it.
What is in a superfood garden? I am interested! So what came back? Those high waisted jeans- ugh, not my favorite! One more coffee date to go then Utah here we come!
If we had coffee, I’d tell you that I went on a clothing shipping spree last week that started and ended with buying for my kids and that I spent way to much money but don’t even feel guilty about it! I’d also tell you I am horrible at gardening.
First of all, this cold and wet rain is sucking the life out of me.
Second of all, THOSE REEBOKS ARE BACK?! OMG…
What kind of greens are you growing? I’m really upping my game…
I have to say no to the high top Reeboks! Once was enough.
I’m with you on the rain–I definitely haven’t been liking the weather lately. We had flash flood warnings today! :[
Best of luck to you on your superfood garden! I really wish I could grow things but I don’t really trust my ability to keep plants alive right now, hahah.
I love the cheese count – such a mom thing! I think leg warmers made a brief comeback? Too bad I gave mine to goodwill ages ago.
^^Or, really, good thing I gave mine away because why make that mistake more than once in your life? 😉
I love that you have reduced it all to cheese slices! I know what you mean about this time of year – leaves me utterly exhausted! Those old school Reeboks crack me up – I haven’t seen a pair like those in ages. I’m not sure they should make a comeback!
Pretty little seedlings! Sure hope the weather warms up soon so your superfood garden can flourish!
Oh my gosh, those reebok tennis shoes! No, just no! I remember wearing them to aerobics class with tights and leg warmers! Bahaha! Actually, didn’t Richard Simmons wear them all the time too???? No, just no!!!
This year is flying super fast for me, too! Especially since I started teaching exercise classes. The weeks just fly by…whether I’m ready or not 😀
Haha, I had them in pink!
I know what you mean about May. It seems like everything is shoved into the last two weeks of school and we are all so exhausted, it’s hard to enjoy it!
Wha? Talk about old school sneakers! Funny what they bring back in style. Makes me feel old. Haha!
Agree on this time of year feeling like it goes by fast, feels like that!
If we were having coffee I’d tell you that I ate and drank too much this weekend and now I need to follow
My meal
Plan.
HA! I love that you’ve reduced school days to cheese!
Those brownie cups look divine! I love how you’ve calculated remaining school days with cheese slices 🙂 I totally remember those Reebok shoes
Those shoes!!! Yep, I remember wearing something similar with my thick scrunched socks, acid jeans, and mile-high bangs. Good times!
Those Reebok are definitely something I thought would NEVER come back in style. In fact, I’m guessing my mother has some in the attic and she can be the coolest lady in town now 🙂
