Wasting Some Time This Week

Luckily this week went by really fast! It is restaurant week in Chicago and I tried two new restaurants this week which was a nice break from the routine sweet potato fries that I make every night. When I discover how to cook something that is all I will eat for a solid two weeks till I learn to makes something else.
 
I was also really busy figuring out a way for Starbucks to start offering flavored coffee. Truth be told I am a total DD girl (in coffee only). Dunkin's french vanilla coffee actual warms my heart when I drink it. The other day at Starbucks they were offering a "Vanilla Blonde" and my excitement overtook me and I quickly ordered one. I was very upset when I had my first sip and realized they only gave you blonde with a shot of the vanilla syrup...sick. Needless to say I couldn't drink much of it and emailed Starbucks in anger.
 
"Starbucks is currently selling their Vanilla Blonde roast which is obviously just a shot of vanilla in the coffee. It taste terrible. I don't understand why Starbucks has not mastered flavored coffee. Every other coffee shop has managed it and flavored coffee is delicious. Especially for people who take their coffee black. Changes Starbucks...changes."
 
Not only did no one reply to my email but I didn't even get some sort of gift certificate...what the f is that all about? In all seriousness I can't understand why Starbucks doesn't offer flavored coffee like Dunkin Donuts. If you are going to have the audacity of being so conveniently located no matter where one is at in the U.S. you might as well be kind enough to give us black coffee drinker some options.
 
I also did some other things this week like work but clearly this was a priority.
 
Happy Friday everyone! I hope your week was less stressful than mine! ;)
 
Something to remind us 20 somethings that we are all in this together.

Pop Of Color!

My apartment has been feeling very blah lately and I  have been meaning to spruce it up for awhile.  Last night the roomie and I made a trip to Target and we found this blue table to give our apartment just the pop it needed!
 
 
 
It looks perfect underneath our hanging wine rack and give our place a much more welcoming feel! We found some other odds and ends to really brighten the place up and I am surprised at how much of a difference it makes. My next project to tackle is my bedroom. I am a terrible sleeper and I keep reading that you need to make your bedroom a comfortable place to help you relax. I hope me changing up my bedroom puts the bedroom gods in on my side!

Tuesday Song

After getting sick Monday morning I decided I needed to get back on my gluten-free kick.If I only eat gluten once a day it makes a HUGE difference. I hit up Trader Joes during my lunch and got all gluten-free products including gluten-free sliced bread so hopefully I start to feel better again!
 
Who else is thrilled by the Destiny's Child reunion at the super bowl?!

Sick Day

I stayed home sick today and spent it in bed getting some much needed rest. Did anyone have a favorite super bowl commercial?  I know everyone loved the the Budweiser Clydesdale commercial but come on...it was no Christian the Lion. 

I will leave you with my favorite!
YOLO peeps.

Love, love, love
