Super(bowl) Sun(ny)day

It was such a beautiful, sunny day today! Hubby and I decided to start off our day with Brunch at our favorite spot, Flying Biscuit. They have the most wonderful biscuits (whole wheat, I might add), dreamy cheddar grits, turkey bacon, chicken sausage, and a lot of vegetarian options. I decided to make a plate from sides, whole wheat biscuit with apple butter, fruit, turkey bacon, and my all-time favorite, the white cheddar grits:

I also love the atmosphere, it really is the perfect place for a Sunday brunch. Everyone else in the Queen City must think so too, because there is always quite a wait to sit down. Even better, when it is warm outside there is outdoor patio dining (I am a sucker for anywhere with outdoor dining!). There are several locations around the southeast, so go check it out if there is one near you!

Next, hubby and I decided to hit up a nearby shopping center to check out cameras at BestBuy. While we have to decided we are going to buy one, we are undecided on whether to go with the Canon Rebel XS or the Nikon D60. I have always used Canon cameras and love them, so I am having a hard time going with another brand. Anyone have any pros or cons with either of these to help me decide?

We also stopped by PetSmart to pick up some stuff for our fur babies and look what was outside:

PUPPIES!!!

PUPPIES!!!

I have been BEGGING my hubby for a big dog for quite sometime now because I just can’t take my little Yorkie running with me! I would seriously adopt all the animals in the world if I could, I just love them so much. So after tearing myself away from the puppies, we got our stuff and hit up a few more stores. I ended up getting those odor-neutralizing Wallflowers from Bath and Body Works (review to come later in the week!) and popped in Banana Republic, just to browse :) I ended up scoring some GREAT deals, check ‘em out:

I got the Paisley Cardigan, Black layering cami, satin dress and geometric blouse for less than $50, and that berry colored satin dress was marked down from $150 and I got it for $4!! Hubby didn’t seem to share my excitement, but I knew you gals would. That will surely come in handy for all the weddings I have to attend this summer (I think we are up to 10?).

Of course, last but not least was a SuperBowl party with friends. Apparently I dressed appropriately since the Steelers just won :)

I am actually a HUGE Carolina Panthers fan (obviously), but since Jake Delhomme messed up our chance at the SuperBowl, I just went with the team that I liked their colors the most. Blue knit top (Banana Republic), Black skinnies (Express), Yellow Stilletos (Nine West), and a long, silver layered necklace to complete my SuperBowl ensemble. There was also a lot of commercial watching. My favorite was the Budweiser commercial where the horses fall in love, which one was your fave? It was a fun night and congrats to the Steelers. Hope you had an exciting night of football, friends, and fun as well!

    Question on your haircut… I am contemplating a Katie Holmes style myself, and I saw your photo here…it looks like you don’t have stick-straight hair like she does ?

    How do you find the manageability of the style ? Does it take a lot of time ?

    Btw…the hair cut looks really nice on you :)

    I give the wallflower a thumbs up and I NEVER like any of them….except the Christmas tree one and Cinnamon stick…so maybe that’s I very rarely like any of them.
