How do I love thee?

Ah Valentine's day is around the corner again. I am an avid fan of holidays in general, and this will be my first Vday as a married gal so the pressure to come up with a fab gift is on. In  previous years I would usually opt for the obligatory truffles and sappy card, along with a meticulously cooked 3 course dinner. This year however, we will be in Washington DC, so I will have to prepare our annual dinner and gift exchange the night prior. Right now I am considering a few options, but I think my top choice might be a DIY beer kit.

This is right up my honey's alley -- he is a fan of beer in general, plus we both love interactive hobbies we can share together. I think my favorite part of purchasing this kit is we can opt to buy different flavors to create additional beers after brewing our first batch. I'm thinking the Irish Oatmeal Stout for St. Patty's Day, the Chesnut Ale for Christmas, a summer pilsner for the Fourth of July....it's essentially a starter kit for a gift that will keep on giving!!

Lately I've been coveting a cook book, Wine Bar Foods, and think it would be a complimentary gift to go along with the beer making kit. I think there are few ways to better spend an evening than home preparing an awesome meal together. I love tappas style dinners where we are able to sample of bunch of different dishes. Here is the link to check out Wine Bar Foods;

Becoming Yankees

Oh how I love the USMC...and how it keeps us on our toes!! We just found out we will be relocating this summer to none other than our nation's fine capitol -- Washington DC. In anticipation I am currently watching the Bravo's Real Housewives of Washington DC (just KIDDING!). In preperation I am actually looking for inexpensive flights to start my townhouse hunt -- and just struck gold with Orbitz. RT flights for $350 directly in Reagan, winning! Here is the link in event you need to hit the road as well.

Travel is one of my favorite things in the world, and next week I head to Austin, TX. It has been since 2008 since I was last there, and I look forward to going back to some of my husband's favorite haunts (he lived in TX back in the 90's during flight school.) Not to mention, it will be even more enjoyable seeing as we saved a bundle through Orbitz on our flights, and Travelocity for our hotel -- We scored a room at the W for a song!! I generally tend to compare prices through each of our affiliate travel companies, and these were the best bang for the buck on this particular trip.

Our new move has me all a twitter; I am getting so excited to begin shopping for cold weather clothes and boots. My timing should be great, considering all the winter items will be going on sale as the spring lines are on their way in. Right now I am lusting over this Miss Sixty coat -- at $75 off retails I really can't afford to not purchase it!  I'm thinking it would look great with dark skinny jeans and my tall black riding boots would be warm and DC chic...

I'm going to have to continue browsing some of Amazon.com's awesome coats on sale, until next time! :)

Sadly my beloved 49ers will not be in the game, but I know good times shall be had by all.
