Eat, Drink and Be Married: Call Us Butter Cause We're on a Roll-ish... Vol 1 Issue 8

If I told y'all the date it would kill the purpose of our STDs
I am back! I took an unannounced break... a writing hiatus, I didn't want to write my blog because I HAD to but because I WANT to...

And I finally feel like it... I have time and I am in a much better mood than I was in September- Something about the Super Moon and well, honestly, September, is my least favorite month...

Actually, that's putting it lightly, I hate September! I am not sure why but I think it has something to do with it being the back-to-school month, or it's the month I got my first period, I'm not too sure...

But I digress...

Sooooo since it's finally the first day! Of my favoritest month! I figure I would give y'all the monthly wedding update.

Though... I feel like that's all I did, all of September- Wedding Talk! Like I would hear myself and tell myself to shut up but still wouldn't... Not that I'm anywhere near becoming a bridezilla - I am becoming more bridesessed - a wedding maniac.

The future hubby is another story, he's a bit of a groomzilla, meticulous in details that usually consume my thoughts are now manifesting themselves in him... We've been a bit more snappy and snarky with one another...

So, I ask everyone ahead of time, if the wedding talk slips by in every conversation, every time we see each other OR if I completely avoid wedding talk like the plague... to please forgive me...

I guess it has to do with the fact that our wedding is already six months away! I am proud to say that we've gotten so much done (mainly because PANIC is starting to set in) and after a few revisions we're sending out our STD's! LMAO (Save The Dates)

Since the first day we got engaged, people, left and right, have been asking "When's the Date???" And looking for locations took us a while to initiate but hearing that we needed at least to reserve dates - we PANICKED and started looking and found a location. Thus, we've had our date for a while but due to our bad case of procrastinationsitis, we're finally ready to officially let everyone know.

They will include our wedding website (which I hope to have done before our guests receive them) and btw thanks to folks who got back to us promptly with their addresses;-) 

I, honestly, am just happy to be writing my blog again and getting back to feeling like myself again.

That is all,

Til' next time, 

Toodles

p.s. does anyone else see a recurring theme... PANIC!!!

FML... I Totally Forgot it was Monnday Today...

I hope everyone had a restful Memorial Day weekend. Mine was jam packed with major accomplishments and lots of love! So much so, that I forgot today was Monday and that I needed to write my blog... And for consistency sake, I am writing to let y'all know to come back June 1st for a Wedding Update...   And that I am thinking about adding some kinda fat girl's guide to feeling and looking good, at least once a month... Every 1st,2nd or 3rd post... I want to try out this challenge I found on Instagram from the Aussie Perth Curvettes! Check 'em out I love theirr Instagram and their blogs! I'm not becoming a fashion/style blog by any stretch of the imagination... BUT I do enjoy looking good and feeling good about myself. And I haven't lately and that is a major part of my anxiety these days. I have been beating myself up and I want to make sure that at least once a month I highlight my many positive attributes! I am also in the middle of planning another trip...

Fatshion 101: Return of National Polka Dot Day

Happy New Year's Y'all! I am happy to be back! I am happy that it's the beginning of the year when the days feel refreshed and reinvigorated. I am not so much of the "new year, new me" attitude BUT a new year does represent a much more glacier pace of life for me. I kinda fell off the face of the Earth or at least my blog since September 2018... October, our birthday month was superbusy, November at work is an insane time and December is for the holidays sooooooo by the end of the year - I am just waiting with bated breath for new years! Aaaaaaaand January is also home to one of my favoritest days of the year! National Polka Dot Day! In honor of the the Polka Dot Queen herself, Minnie Mouse! If it has dots! I want it! I got it! ;-) And dude!!! I celebrated in what I can only describe as pants sent from heaven! They are from Zara and I bought them ON SALE, maybe six months ago and they come in XXL! I fell in love with them the minute I put them on SO ...

Fatshion 101: FAT Is NOT An Insult

This past week I learned that my marriage was attacked and minimized, my body was subjected to meanness but rather than sulk at home and blame all the injustices on someone else - my husband and I followed through with our plans for a Friday game night full of laughs (imagine my husband acting out this song  - because in this home we try our best to laugh off drama) and continued with our V-Day plans for a Saturday afternoon in Carmel with our kids.  So here is my outfit of choice for a day trip to Carmel! And the theme of this Fatshion 101 post: patience ! Sales require patience! If you follow me on Pinterest, you know that I LOVE casual wear, and casual does not mean frumpy! So be prepared to see this denim jacket, purchased at a Levi's outlet, on most of my Fatshion posts;-) It takes on many, many forms.  In this instance, I went with long sleeves and popped my collar for a little flare. This blouse from Madewell, I have been saving for this partic...
