This and that...

A beautiful weekend has come and gone and as much as I got done this weekend, I also relaxed which was nice for a change. *A* and I made the hour trek on Sunday to the beautiful pictureque-town of Port Stanley which is located on the shores of Lake Erie. It is one of my most favourite places to visit and with the beautiful hot weather, it made for a perfect day on the beach :)

A few other life updates/random thoughts:

• After a crazy bathroom renovation that saw my house look like more of a war-zone than a house, the reno is complete and looks awesome. I promise to follow up with a pic. Saturday though, was the final clean-up day, and in the clean-up process, it was decided that my 1970's style crushed-velvet couch also had to go to the dump :( My beloved brown couch and I have sentimental value because it has been with me since my first year of University. It was FREE to me when I first started AND all the guests that have ever stayed over always commented that it was the most comfortable couch to sleep on. I guess the time comes when you have to part ways and so sadly, here I am the last time before I said sayonara to the couch.

• Have you heard of cone-ing? Look at this definition of cone-ing. Does this not seem just rediculous? Its such a waste of a good icecream cone!!!
• Subway has new cookie called "Raspberry Cheesecake." It is to die for- they are like heaven in your mouth. I am going to try and make them tonight with this receipe that I found online. Its worth a try.
• I'm sorry to those people who I JUST responded to now at my SFACG email. I hadn't checked it in almost a month and a half so I'm sorry if I made you feel neglected! Thanks for all the awesome emails too by the way :)
• I am adoring my beautiful toes that are coloured with Sally Hansen's Mint Green nail polish. Its an amazing summer colour and makes me happy just looking at them :)
• Speaking of being happy, I have finally got around to reading "The Happiness Project" which is one of the books on my summer read list. It is so inspiring and I love how witty the author is. I seriously think she is my twin. I am happy to report that I'm already feeling inspired enough to start my own "Happiness Project".. and I haven't even hit page 100 yet! We can all learn to be a little more happy each and every day.
• And another thought about happiness- on Friday night, one of my good friends and former roommates came and visited us in *G* while she is home from Calgary. I can't believe how awesome it is when best friends can just pick up right where they left off. Its as if she didn't leave us at all- she's still the same girl that I came to know and love. It was awesome seeing you *M* :)
