Happy Hump Day, blog world! This week has been a slow one, but the beautiful, cooler weather more than makes up for that. I’m going to get right down to the food today because I’m finally sharing my husband’s amazing spaghetti and meatballs with you! But first, let’s take a look at What I Ate…

Tuesday Thoughts {10.08.13}
1. I pretty much broke my own rules for dealing with tropical weather this past weekend since TS/TD Karen ended up fizzling out. We had approximately 2 minutes of rain Saturday afternoon, so we went to lunch, the mall, and the movies to see Gravity. Although it did rain most of the day Sunday, it…

Per these 21 Signs Your Addiction to Good…
