StyleDiary: T’was a Good Day

First, I liked my simple, polished ensemble:

When:

May 13, 2009

Where:

Work. I was having a pretty uneventful day until my director came in my office (RARE occurence!) and gave me kudos for a design I did. This doesn’t happen often (as in hardly EVER), and I was so flabbergasted all I could say was “Thanks!” Then at lunch I asked my friend where hubby and I should go in the Queen City for a nice, cozy anniversary dinner (May 27th). She suggested the McNinch House, a historic home that serves a 7 course meal to only 26 people a night. Well, when she told me how expensive it was, I was thinking that it might be out of our price range. Then hubby came home after work and handed me a card from his boss. Apparently his boss had given us $250 in gift certificates for our Anniversary to none other than the McNinch House. I was so excited and stunned since I had just talked about it earlier in the day. So I have decided to save my pretty new dress for this occasion of course :)

When I got home, my sore throat was craving some hot soup and cornbread, so I just starting cutting up veggies, popping open cans of everything and tossing around spices. I thought it would turn out terrible, but it actually cooked into a delicious vegetable soup. Just what I wanted! Only problem is now I have no idea how to recreate it because I don’t even remember everything I threw in the pot. At least there is plenty left over to freeze. Despite still being sick, I also pounded out a nice 4 mile run on the greenway. So it was definitely a great day in the life of PinQue!

What:

Chain link blouse and dress shorts – Banana Republic

Earrings – Boutique

Shoes – Thrifted

Bracelets – J. Crew and Tiffany

Hope everyone had a happy hump day! Almost the weekend, yayer!
