Bites of My Life

If you’ve watched the news in the past week, you’ve seen the crazy snowstorm that came through Texas and surrounding states. The problem with Texas is that the state is not set up for the weather that hit. Massive power outages, wiped clean grocery stores, boil water notices, and below zero temperatures took over the week. I was lucky to ride the storm with electricity, heat, and water the entire time, but I felt extreme guilt sitting in my warm apartment as I watched water pour from the third floor of a townhome behind me, as they suffered no electricity and a frozen pipe bursting. The peak of the week was watching a lot of movies, game night, seeing Texans come together to help each other, and the city covered in white snow for 5+ days!

-A peek at Dallaska. The craziest snow-covered negative degree temperature week that no one in the state of Texas was ready for. She was cute but she was cold!
-I rented this jacket from Rent the Runway, to then find out I think I subconsciously rented it realizing it looked like it was made from my favorite old blanket. Pictured here: one big purple blob.
-Last week felt like we were all in college again. Yes work got done, but a White Russian on a Monday seemed like an excellent late afternoon idea.
-Royal China, to-go. The best Chinese food in Dallas IMO! So good on a snowy night.
-I go on and off the “I want to get a dog” train, but Donut the cream dachshund has me ON THE TRAIN!
-When you can finally leave the house…a round of spicy margs PLZ!
-Hooked on this sundried-tomato, green onion, and smoked turkey omelet. How do you take your eggs?
-The perfect sunny Sunday after a crazy week, full of friends, pimento cheese, and baby back ribs :)
-Have you seen these little “sleep” candies in the checkout lines at grocery stores? I’ve bought them a few times, and they are really working for me. 1-2 before bed and I’m out.
