Mountain Dew:
I try not to drink too much of it, and I don't buy it at home, but if I'm in the need for caffeine at work, or I go to the vending machine for a pop, or I stop at the gas station on a road trip, Mountain Dew is my choice!!!
Q'Doba BBQ Burrito:
There's a Q'Doba less than a mile from my house, and to say I've had to STOP myself from eating there multiple times in one week, is an understatement. I think I could eat there everyday!!
J. Cole:
A friend of mine had been telling me about him, and I guess I was thinking of all the other bs rappers that have been making music lately. Well, he let me borrow his copy of J. Cole's mixed tape. When I tell you that I've been listening to it non-stop for a month, I'm not exaggerating. I listen to it in my car, when I'm at home cooking, cleaning, getting dressed. Pretty much anytime I listen to music, It's been Mr. Cole.
Asics Running Shoes:
Now I'm not a runner by any stretch of the imagination. However, I have tried running, and when it's warm outside, I walk a couple times a week. Asics are my favorite shoes to do any type of exercise in. I play volleyball in them, I jog/walk in them, I wear them when I'm traveling. There aren't the cute/fashionable tennis shoes that I typically go for, but I absolutely love them.
MacBook Pro:
I took the plunge and purchased a MacBook when my Toshiba (that was only 1.5 years old) stopped working. I had been eying MacBooks for a while, but never convinced myself to spend the money. After all, I had a laptop. So, when my Toshiba stopped working, I went without for a few weeks. I pondered over and over, do I just buy another cheap laptop, or do I take the plunge and get something of better quality. If I'm going to spend the money, I might as well get what I want. So, I did it, and I do not regret it all. I love my MacBook.
Signature Needle Arts Knitting Needles:
These are my favorite, straight knitting needles! I only have 1 pair of them, cause they are a tad pricey, but I absolutely love them. The are smooth, light, and the tip is pointy, so that I can get in my tight stitches without the yarn pulling apart. They are ALWAYS in use!!
Olive Garden Chicken Scampi:
I ate at the Olive Garden for the first time in college. My family isn't big on italian food, so we never ate there growing up. Well, once I ate there, I was in love. Whenever I would go, I would get the exact same thing, Chicken Parmigiana, with Fettuccine Alfredo instead of spaghetti! No exaggeration, for 5 years straight, I would ALWAYS order this when I ate there. Well, I finally convinced my family to go there, and mother had a co-worker who brought Chicken Scampi to work for lunch one day, so she ordered it. I, of course, had to taste it, I was in LOVE. The chicken is always tender, the veggies are delicious, and the sauce is flavor-ful but light. My only complaint, is that when you get it for takeout, it's not the same. I think it's because the steam makes the noodles too tender.
Netflix:
I had netflix about 3 years ago, and eventually stopped watching the movies in a timely fashion, so I canceled my account. Well, I only have basic cable, and as most know, there's rarely anything worth watching on. So, I decided to do a free trial with netflix again, and I am glad I did. They have a huge database of movies that you watch instantly, on your PC, or internet enabled gaming systems. So, I watch many hours of netflix on the Wii. I still get one DVD at a time, which is good for new movies, or movies that aren't available for streaming.
Well, this is a small list of some of my favorite things...right now anyway!
