week fifteen... and photo one hundred!! late-night reads, dessert for lunch, and lazy saturdays...

Week fifteen and photo one-hundred! that's exciting! 

Thursday: photo ninety-nine: reading late into the night. i think that's something everyone has done at least once to no regret. i love getting caught so deeply into a book's words that you lose both yourself and the time. all in the dead of night... with your covers pulled up, your pillow soft, the lights dim, and your feet warm.  

Friday: photo ONE-HUNDRED!!!!!!!! (YAY! that deserves all caps!): 

brownie, anyone? you know you shouldn't should! delicious, moist, and homemade, who would want to resist? 

as of late i've been on a baking kick. experimenting with various types of gluten-free treats is so enjoyable to me - a good way to de-stress and just have fun with one of my favorite things in life... food! ;) ha. so as a way to share this fun with my lovely readers i plan to, at least on a occasion (possibly a new weekly blogpost series), share a new (healthy-esque) recipe. stay tuned... the recipe for these brownies will be coming to a google reader near you (and who wouldn't want the recipe for a brownie as scrumptious as these?)! 

Saturday: photo one-hundred-one (yikes, that takes longer to type...): 

firstly- please don't hate on my for all the smudge prints i have on my computer screen (surely you have at least a couple on yours???). secondly - saturday mornings are perfect (well - as perfect as any morning could possibly be *winkwink*). yes. i make a point to make my saturday mornings as lazy and lovely as possible. saturday mornings, to me - they're staying in my pjs while i eat breakfast. they're eating breakfast outside on my porch. they're taking time to sit on pinterest with a hot mug of tea/coffee and zone out. they're making pancakes or cookies in my pjs - just because i can. they're doing whatever i feel like... they're lazy and they're lovely and they're full of pretty shadows and gorgeous light.

Sunday: photo one-hundred-two: desert for lunch, anyone? i mean, who would turn that down? ever? not i! if it helps any - these mini chocolate-mouse-with-coconut-crust pies are suprisingly healthy - gluten and refined sugar free. so indulge away! i made these little pies as a quick and last minute lunch/tea. 

(p.s. don't pick on the fact that they're considerably less than perfect looking). ;)  

Monday: photo one-hundred-three: tea. vanilla chai tea. never tried chai tea? you should! it's has a warming flavor and is wonderful on chilly nights. make sure and add milk and sweetener too! 

Tuesday: photo one-hundred-four: being on the road for multiple hours will suddenly make you pretty creative. to keep the boredom at bay? photograph various contrasting fields and scenery as you whiz by. i love how they're all the same but quite different. 

Wednesday: photo one-hundred-five: the kittens. my babies (i knowiknow i really do sound like the proper crazy cat lady right now)! but really - you can't deny how adorable they are! they're girl-boy siblings and forever inseparable. they're precious to watch together - they preen and kiss one another, always watching for the other's welfare. when they take kitty-naps together - oh it's just so precious! 

mo and howdy are their names... and playing is their favorite game...!  

that's a wrap.
