The name of my new computer!! So far I am madly in love with Windows 7!!!!! So many cool new features – like a clipper (!!) and the jump menus. Also love that I can put my Windows Live Writer and Live Gallery side by side with a simple drag + drop. I am now a blog producing machine!!
You know you’re a blogger when….
After blogging and cleaning (and NO packing!!) I went to the gym for a break this morning. Biked there, ellipticaled for 30, did a quick round of lifting just until my muscles were tired and came home.
As I biked down our street, I passed the FedEx truck. It was like seeing reindeer droppings on Christmas morning. I knew it was here!!!! Matt got started setting up KERF (the computer’s name) while I made us lunch.
I was craving yogurt, so I made that my entree:
A cup of Trader Joe’s Euro yogurt, a chopped pear, cinnamon + plum jam in a Cali Bowl!!! The lip did indeed keep my yogurt in the bowl 
Plus a plate of veggies with some Costco PB
And BISCOFF!! Leftover from breakfast.
After lunch I couldn’t resist another. Thankfully this was the last packet. But guess who’s flying Delta // Northwest tomorrrrooooowww!!!
Hoping that when I push publish this newly set up Live Writer works!

New computer looks great!
Awesome! Enjoy it !!!
I was psyched to discover the Biscoff cookies at Walgreens. But now I am not so sure. My husband and I go through a pack every couple of days…yikes!
wow you’re a real professional blogger! two screens, a new computer & everything. yow-zaa!
I’m shopping around for a new PC but probably won’t buy anything until closer to the holidays. Did you go to your trusty Best Buys or buy directly online this time? We usually go to Frys in California.
Nice! I’ve heard so many good things about Windows 7!
Have fun with the new computer
YAY for new computers!!! Was it super duper faster/easier?!!
New computers are awesome!! Have fun playing with it.
I also LOVE those cookies!
Congrats on the new computer!

Congrats on the new puter!!! As a Mac girl, I can’t get excited about Windows 7, but it does certainly look great!

Oooh! Good to know about Windows 7! I’ve heard some pretty good things about it – glad you like it!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Delta Biscoff cookies! They’re the best!
Somehow, no matter how satisfied I am with my meals – I’m always jealous of yours! Haha
Oooh, exciting! Enjoy the new computer
nice! Enjoy playing!
2 computers!? WOW!
hehehe even w/o the blog name, KERF sounds like a great name for a computer. Like Alf or something!
I’m excited to try out Windows 7:)
Glad you got your new computer! I love your reindeer droppings reference LOL
Wow fancy!!
your computer looks great! I’m flying Delta in a few weeks and you have me looking forward to the cookies already
how exciting! I love new computers. And love the name of course. Can’t wait to see you and everyone else tomorrow!
new computers are so fun!
I haven’t started packing either – we may be on the same flight from Charlotte -> San Fran. We stop over in Charlotte from Roanoke tomorrow morning.
I loveeee the Biscoff cookies. Omgomgogomg.
If you love biscoff cookies then you’ll die when you try Biscoff spread (http://www.biscoff.com/gourmet/shop?method=itembuy&itemid=0814). It’s super expensive, but omg worth it. I discovered it in Belgium and brought a couple of jars home and then ordered more when they ran out
WELCOME to the world, KERF!! <3 Euro yogurt
Hoooray for your new blogging machine!
Glad you like your new PC. I told you it would be LIGHTNING FAST!
New computers are one of the most exciting things ever.
ENjoy it
I’ve just started a food blog around a month ago and was searching the web for some great food exciting blogs, so happy I found yours! Funny, but i’ve been having yogurt cravings for lunch lately too, so this post gave me some great ideas!
I’d love to get the new windows 7! I’m totally a PC person, mac’s are too confusing
Oooh, I’d love to hear a full review of Windows 7 from you! Now you are an h-core blogger
Congrats on your new blogging machine!!
Getting a new computer is so exciting!
Jenn
Would you mind terribly e-mailing some specifics about your new computer? Hubby and I are in need of a new one and I have no idea where to start – it helps when others who love theirs share info so I can narrow it down. TIA!
Oh I love those Biscoff Biscuits! They are maybe the best part of flying Delta
The new computer sounds AMAZING! And I just love your lunch… it’s always fun to put together a snack-like lunch!
LOVE the new computer! It came in so fast!
I was just going to write and ask where you got your Biscoff. I think they are originally from the UK (I studied abroad in England and had them) but now I can only get them on Delta flights. I just got back from a trip to Europe and was able to stock up a bit. Yum.
Dang girl, how do you learn all that stuff on Windows 7? I can barely figure out how to work Microsoft Word on their new software. A tutorial is needed!
Love the new computer! You are so tech savvy with all the cool computer gadgets
Great set up. Have fun on your trip.
Good to hear positive things about the latest version of Windows. When we got my laptop a couple years ago, we kept hearing so many bad things about Vista, we almost decided to get the older version of windows on my new computer!
All fancy and high tech! And FOOD! Love that jam “spill”
congrats on your new computer!
New computer = happy blogger!
OMG the new comp is GLORIOUS!!!
PS I am SO jealous of your Delta Biscoff!!! I just booked a last minute flight for a trip next week, and I’m flying Delta! HOoooooooorray
