Sigh, Americanism.

This weekend, my brother-in-law and I were talking about our jobs.

He asked me, skeptically, slightly demeaningly
"So... you only work when there's work to be done?"

And as I answered,
"Well... yeah,"
I felt ashamed and legitimately bad.

And that, guys, that's what's wrong with America.

Sunshine Obsessions

Lately I've been obsessed with some particular products, activities, and scents that seem to go just perfectly with the light, airy, warm weather :)

1. Yes to Carrots products: Shown is the shampoo and conditioner... but really obsessed with this whole line - the lip balm is terribly fantastic and they're all made with natural ingredients
2. Upland Wheat: Always been one of my favorite beers... especially in the warm weather. Brewed in Btown and first drank in Btown :)
3. Yankee Candle: "Soft Blanket" SUCH a good spring time/warm scent. Light and airy and just smells like clean
4. Camel and Gold watch: Last week I treated myself on a lovely Michael Kors WRAP watch (similar to the one pictured)... I've been searching for a leather camel and gold faced watch for a while now so when I found the MK wrap one, I couldn't pass it up.
5. Cruiser Bike: OF COURSE with the beautiful weather and the Indy Cultural Trail that winds all around downtown (and right by my apartment) I've been itching to ride a bike... My friend let me borrow his extra bike, a wonderfully vintage "cruiser" (again, not exact but similar to the one pictured) that I plan to purchase this week for anytime bike riding adventures.
