1. It’s been raining here in Austin. I know we need the rain. Be grateful for it. But my apartment complex decided to dump a bunch of sand in the parking lot right before the rain. To help soak up the oil spotches from cars, I guess?? Cut to this sand + rain + oil creating a slippery mess in the parking lot! Cut to Julie eating it in the parking lot & falling…hands full of grocery bags. UGH! At least no one saw me. Someone witnessing your fall is way worse than actually falling.
2. My new favorite smoothie….Banana Biscoff Smoothie.
3. My new favorite breakfast…Runny eggs over asparagus.
4. My new favorite ready-to-drink cocktail….Skinnygirl’s White Cranberry Cosmo. SO GOOD!!
5. Are you watching Girls on HBO?
This show seems to rile people up. People hate it….or love it….or love to dissect it. It’s a hot button issue for some reason. I happen to LOVE the show. I relate to it….or rather my earlier 20 year old self related to it. It’s awkward and real. I went through some of those experiences, self-deprecating thoughts and emotions. The show literally makes me cringe as I’m transported back in time. I love the show though because I know that I come out on the other side stronger and wiser!
Okay, I’m done.
Oil + Sand + Rain = Bad combo! Your new fav breakfast looks yummy! Haven’t seen Girls, but thinking about my 20′s does make me cringe as well:)
I do like Girls…and Biscoff! Sorry you fell…I hate it when that happens!! Regarding Girls: I think most women go through that transition stage in their early 20s as they leave college and enter adult life. It’s awkward and messy…and fun…all at the same time. But those experiences are how we learn and grow.

Totally agree, Wendy!!
Sorry about your fall! But, yes, much better than no none even saw it. And, I love runny eggs with asparagus. Delicious.
Uhhh, YES I am watching GIRLS! I love it!!
I knew you had good taste! I wish you were still in Austin. I think we could spend hours talking about that show, our pasts, and drinking lots-o-wine.
Hi Julie,
I had a gut feeling my husband wouldn’t like it, so I started secretly watching it at home while folding laundry. I love it. It’s nothing like my young adult experience in New York and the kids are kind of spoiled, but I kind of like the characters anyway. Awkward, messy and fun sums it up perfectly.
Hi doll–so sorry about that spill. Road rash on the palms of your hands? Ouch.
Love those dippy eggs! (that’s what my British friend calls them.) I usually soft boil mine, cut off the top, then dip the asparagus spears into the yolk. When I see you next, I’ll bring fresh eggs….that just makes those runny yolks even bettah!
Hope to see you soon!
