Blogging MACHINE!

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!!

IMG_7646 (640x427)

You know you’re a blogger when….

IMG_7645 (640x427)

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:

IMG_7638 (640x427)

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 🙂

IMG_7637 (640x427)

Plus a plate of veggies with some Costco PB

IMG_7634 (640x427)

And BISCOFF!! Leftover from breakfast.

IMG_7633 (640x427)

IMG_7642 (640x427)

IMG_7631 (640x427)

After lunch I couldn’t resist another. Thankfully this was the last packet. But guess who’s flying Delta // Northwest tomorrrrooooowww!!!

IMG_7644 (640x427)

Hoping that when I push publish this newly set up Live Writer works!

    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.

    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 🙂

    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!

    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.

    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!
