Read in October, 2013

A local organization, Center Stage, was putting on a production of The Importance of Being Ernest, which was one of the classics that I had downloaded on my nook. "What better time to read it than now", I asked myself.

It was a very quick read and I found myself enjoying it more with each page. The plot, two men fall in love with two women, the men each tell the women their name is Earnest, and the women both state that they will only marry a man with the name Earnest, was fun and funny.

This is definitely not a story for someone who is looking for something serious!

Overall, I enjoyed this book and appreciated its shortness. It made me want to go see the live show.

I Took A Walk

Today, I took a walk with my dog. We ended up at the local farmers market about half a mile away from the apartment. I picked out a couple of onions, and only ended up spending 90 cents!

Lizzie was so good on the leash during the whole walk. I am proud of her. On our normal walks, she sometimes pulls and does not pay too much attention to me, but today was different. I think she enjoyed our walk.

On the way home, back up the hill, Lizzie did not slow down too much like I thought she would. We do not normally take such long walks and I was afraid it would be too much for her. But she did it, and so did I. We did it together.

Back inside, Lizzie gulped down 2 quarts of water and I turned on the Wii for my daily workout. I am so much stronger than I was a month ago.

Happy Days!

Chocolate Chip Cookie Cone!

On our way home from the CT Wine Festival, my boyfriend pulls into an ice cream shop unexpectedly. I was not planning on buying anything until I saw this cone (above).

It is a chocolate chip cookie cone. That's right, a chocolate chip cookie in the shape of an ice cream cone! As soon as I saw that, I knew I had to try it.

Let me just say, the cheesecake flavored soft serve I had them fill it with was also delicious.

What a treat. Some of the best moments in life are those that are completely unexpected.

Yay!
