Off to Hawaii!!!

So David and I are off to Hawaii tomorrow morning - YAY! It will definitely be a work/play trip....a nice mix of relaxing, "professional developing", vacationing, and networking. I could NEVER complain about attending a work conference in Hawaii at the Hilton Hawaiian Village, that's for sure! I give the American Counseling Association mad props for choosing Waikiki Beach as the site for their annual convention...yay for tropical destinations!

This is where I'll be today..

Oooh La La!

Thanks Cute Overload for always making me smile! ;)

Enjoy this "Peep Show", just in time for Easter! ;)

Happy Friday......TGIF Y'ALL!
HIIIIGH FIVE!

Adventures in cooking!

With a new season of "Top Chef" starting this Wednesday (yay!), I thought it would be quite timely to post about my own culinary adventures. Last night I made a YUMMY Tofu stir fry with a host of fresh veggies including shitake mushrooms, zucchini, carrots, pea pods and green onions all mixed in a tasty garlic flavored soy sauce mix served over brown rice. ;) Not only did the dish get rave-reviews from the hubby (and from me if I do say so myself....), but excitingly this was also my first time cooking Tofu! Now understand that I LOVE tofu, and honestly I don't know why it took me this long to experiment with cooking it myself. But after last night I now plan to incorporate tofu as a regular ingredient on my shopping list!
Yummy.....and I even have leftovers for lunch today. ;)

Happy 29th Birthday David!

I love you babe.....Happy Special Day to YOU!

Dilemmas....

Sometimes life presents us with such TOUGH decisions....... ;)

Dogs on a cat lover's blog??? ;)

So even though David and I are "cat people", someday we would love to become "dog people" too! Someday (when we have a house and a yard), David and I would like to get two dogs - a BIG dog and a little dog. ;)

David would love to get an Alaskan Malamute. During my days as a dog walker back in 2006 we had such a positive experience with one of my client's dogs - Toppy the beautiful grey, blue-eyed Malamute. He was so distinguished, powerful, and loving.


But I am also a fan of cute little dogs! If I had to pick one breed, it would be between a Pomeranian, a Border Terrier (like Benji), and a Jack Russell Terrier.

Have you had any experience with any of these breeds? Just curious....
We would definitely get two puppies at the same time so they could grow up together. The bigger question is - what would our kitties think!? ;)
Woof! ;)
