thursday thoughts

 happy thursday! welcome to our random 
thoughts of the day...

first and most importantly, i have to share our favorite quick dessert:  
soufflés in a mug!
this is something that everyone should know. 
if you want a yummy chocolate cake but
don't have much time, mix these 3 ingredients 
in a mug and microwave for 50 seconds! 

1 egg • 1/4 c. powdered sugar • 2 Tbsp. cocoa powder
mix up, put in microwave for 50 seconds. eat it while warm and add ice cream!
 

next, i need to show something i'm obsessed with at our apartment building: 
these pink lanterns are the first things i saw when we pulled up during the apartment search, and i immediately fell in love and wanted to live here. i always feel 
like i'm in italy or spain when i come home to our building. 

these kinds of texts make my day

i don't know why i'm finding so many cute swimsuits right
when summer is ending...but i guess we live in california
so it's always swim suit season right? RIGHT??

currently reading this for book club.
{thanks mom for having every book i ever need}
it is different but i'm loving it and it makes me want to "live a better story"

i am craving these ice cream sandwiches AND this friend so 
i'm excited to see her tonight! {and watch modern family}

speaking of modern family, i just found this picture of when
we met PHIL DUNPHY! best night of our lives. can't wait
to watch the season premiere tonight!

has anyone used this site for running routes before? love it..you can find route
 based on distance wherever you are...and it's an iphone app too!
perfect thing for living in a new place.

important note to self: veggie pot pies from whole foods are amazing

i laughed when i saw this because it really is true right now...too busy!
good thing husband is able to do the dishes, take out the trash, and still look good.

if you're a fan of In-N-Out burger, check out their secret menu i discovered!
i might like it more now that i know i can get some of these variations.

speaking of groceries, this is the best dressing ever from trader joe's.

loving this waterbottle

and lastly, speaking of running:
 these tiffany blue nikes are sort of a necessity if you ask me!

  10. Hey! I'm over here from Chasing Birdies...and can I just say, one thing we have in common is that I also love when a name fits a person perfectly! I thought I was just weird, but I'm glad that someone else out there feels the same way! And I loved that Donald Miller book...I read it a year or so ago and at first I thought it was interesting, but I kept reading and loved it! And those blue nikes...LOVE! I love colored running shoes more than almost anything! Well, maybe not that much, but I like them a lot! Have a great day!

  11. Those souffles look Ah-MAZING! I am going to surprise my fiance with the quick and easy dessert tonight after dinner. He is a chocolate-holic. I love reading and have wanted to join a book club for awhile now- is the one that you are in via blog or local in your real life? Stop by and visit my blog sometime!
