Conversation #71: Have you gone greek?

I don't mean in the sorority/fraternity sort of way. Even though my alma mater was big on that, I actually sat that out. It kind of intimidated me and I didn't really have the money to keep up with those fancy girls. Anyway, I digress.

What I'm actually talking about is yogurt. I know a lot of people have started trying the greek yogurt. My mom, for one, really loves it. I have been enjoying it for a while, but I change which kinds I like at different times. My favorite way to eat it is plain flavored with a little honey. Yum!

I go between brands, but when eating it one morning, I noticed on this particular carton it said: "Suggestion: Please do not stir." I don't know why that struck me as funny, but I used to always stir it up. Maybe that changes the texture and taste or something? I have no idea, but I quit stirring it and I think it does taste delicious.

Anyone else seen or heard this? Know the reason why? I mean I'm pretty certain nothing bad happens, but I do find it interesting. Here is my proof:

What are your favorite kinds of greek yogurt? How do you eat it?

A Conversation about Absenteeism

Wow! It has been too long. I have still kept up on reading everyone’s blogs, but commenting and writing have been out the window for me. I have thought often about blog topics, and I’ll try to get back on regular posts tomorrow. Basically, the last few weeks have been full of preparing for this past Saturday. What was this past Saturday, you may ask? My incredibly intelligent and amazing husband graduated from law school!!!!!!!!! I can hardly contain my excitement. I am proud beyond words, and now we just have one last hurdle: the bar exam. I know the next two and half months will still be full of study, but it still doesn’t squash my excitement of no more late night classes, missed parties, or tension filled finals weeks. We are done! I only say “we” because it is definitely a path that affects both the student and family, but trust me, the hubby did ALL the work! Needless to say though, we had lots of family in town...

Conversation #22b: Fashion help!

So we talked about fall weddings a couple of days ago - can a brighter jewel tone work in fall? I bought this dress on clearance at Target for $13 a couple of days ago: So y'all made me feel pretty good about wearing a sleeveless option and using a pashmina or a cardigan. I actually have a pretty cute black dress cardigan so here is what I was thinking: Can I wear this dress in October with black tights and black suede pumps and pull it off? I think it could be cute, but I need your input. If not, I might return it (or for $13 I might just keep it because I'm thinking I can wear it to a wedding this Saturday also!) I realize that this wedding isn't until October, but my MIL was talking about a dress for her so it put it in my mind. Honestly, I'm afraid if I don't start looking now I may forget and then be in real panic mode! Anyway, thoughts???

Conversation #19: A blast from the past – Monday Movie Review

Ever since the hubby and I ended our blockbuster subscription, we have really not watched too many movies. Honestly, he has been so busy that we just haven’t had the time. However, my amazing in-laws have been entertaining me during this bar exam review time, and we went to see the Sorcerer’s Apprentice on Saturday. (Picture from here .) I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. It was exciting and thrilling, and in my opinion, I’m not sure I would take a really young child to it (maybe 10 and older…) It kept my attention, and I don’t think that it drug on too long either. Sometimes I think these epic type movies go on and on and on, but this ended at a nice time, and it had the most adorable bulldog in the cast, too! I definitely recommend it! (Picture from here .) We also recently watched The Paper Chase . I guess this movie itself is kind of blast from the past – 1973 to be exact. Our neighbor actually dropped it in our mailbox as ...
