Will Work For Coffee

What a lovely way to get in some exercise! Lately I have just been in love with walking!! So much more pleasant than sweating on some machine, although at times I love that too.

I forget how close we really are from downtown. 2.1 miles flew by.

Picasa (732x1024)

We decided to split a french press at the coffeeshop while we worked on plans for the bakery, specifically our training trip to Montana – in JANUARY. ‘S gonna be a cold one!

IMG_2796edited

IMG_2799edited IMG_2801edited

We downed the two tiny cups SO FAST. The French press was mighty delicious, so was the Costa Rican coffee. I do miss our FP at times, but I’m enjoying our convenient drip so much more.

IMG_2803edited

A while later, we walked back home for a warm lunch.

Leftover turkey + rice soup

And a cheesy roll stuffed with the last of the cranberry sauce! YUM!!!

IMG_2814edited

I will miss them both so much tomorrow.

IMG_2815edited

The final hours for free shipping at OpenSky and the CORE bag are upon us.

What’s the best deal you’ve found online today? I don’t feel that I’ve taken enough advantage of the sales!!

    I haven’t been doing online shopping because the internet at my office is SO slow because of Cyber Monday! I did however get a 3 quart crockpot for 8.99 on Friday!!! That was quite an exciting find.

    How have you like elements?

    I am trying to stay away from Ann Taylor Loft’s 40% off everything sale today :/

    The coconut butter and Garlic Gold from OpenSky was a great deal, with the free shipping!

    I also got two sweaters and a scarf from American Eagle online for $60 with free shipping. That’s not a bad deal for sweaters.

    I am thinking about buying the CORE bag! Is it so big that it will look ridiculous if I don’t fully pack it? I’m sort of concerned about the size. Sell it to me! Haha.

    Reply
    • Kath says

      November 29, 2010 at 3:59 pm

      It’s not too big!! There are more photos of it here: https://www.katheats.com/water-in-my-ears/

      and here: https://www.katheats.com/swimmer-sandwich/

      It’s really a very chic bag (I like the lining the most!) and has lots of pockets.

      I think it’s a bit small for weekend travel, but for the gym, it’s perfect.

    Don’t know if anyone uses Bliss skincare, but their stuff is awesome! They are giving away a free full sized daily moisturizer (it has SPF!), with any purchase. No $ limit, no code needed. If you buy 2 full sized items worth over $35, you can get 30% off. That code is GIFTS30. It’s the only black friday/cyber monday deal I’ve utilized. 😀

    Hmm.. just got an Email from La Perla telling me about their upcoming sale. So expensive but soooooo pretty, I love their stuff. My husband shouldn’t mind me spending money on that, right?!
