Fashion Show!
Feb 21st, 2010 by Melinda
I’m sitting here right now listening to an online sermon & having a cup of organic hot cocoa while the hubby is working on the bath remodel. It is so pretty and sunny here today!
Sooo good
So backing up to Friday, my boss mentioned going golfing, but he was worried about leaving me alone at the office since I was new. I reassured him that I would be fine and could handle it on my own- he apparentally trusted me, because around 1:20 he left to go golfing. But before he left he gave me my paycheck and a $25 bonus just for doing a good job- he told me that he really appreciated how hard that I worked this week
He was going to buy me a restaurant gift certificate but he knew I wasn’t big on eating out- I may have my nails done instead. Anyway, I handled the office just fine on my own- I had a few payments over the phone and walk-ins. Once 4:00 rolled around, my Mom in law came to pick me up to go shopping!!
At TJ’s Mom bought me this Raw bar- it was pretty good!
I found lots of work outfits!! Thanks to my praying beforehand- I pray about everything!
We made a quick stop at Publix to pick up a few necessities.
We also stopped by Tuesday Morning and I found some gardening gloves- perfect timing since I am planting my garden this weekend! I also found lots of baby items for the shower, but I can’t post them on here since my sister reads my blog.
Okay, so I wanted to model the work outfits that I bought- I want your opinion, so here goes:
Here is the first outfit- I added leggings because the dress was too short.
Outfit #2
Oufit #3 (sorry for my dirty floors- I am cleaning them this weekend
)
Outfit #4- this would be for Fridays.
Oufit #5
Outfit #6.
Okay, so I want to know what you guys think about my new work outfits- cute or no?
We also stopped by Redbox to pick up a couple of movies, since we had a free code- we rented Inglorious B. and Julie & Julia (for me). I have to tell you Inglorious B. was not my kind of movie, it was gory, too much blood and violence- it was definitely a guy movie and for most of the movie I had my face and even ears covered. Julie & Julia- I LOVED!!!! What a fabulous movie- it was definitely my type of movie
So now onto Saturday…
I planted all of my garden seeds!! Plus some parsley, basil and cilantro.
I made myself some jicama fries for lunch- sooo good
I decided to marinate some mushrooms since we were going to grill out- Saturday was so beautiful and sunny! I marinated them with olive oil, sea salt, pepper and some Georgia Muscadine wine from when we went to a festival and stomped the grapes- so fun
Of course, hubby wanted some more of the hot wings as well
I did have several organic mushrooms then I had a grapefruit yogurt mess for dessert.

I love the blue dress (#2) !! And the black top with the front pockets (#5). The jean skirt outfit looks great too! I love jean skits because you can dress them up or down
I’m a huge TJ Maxx fan - they get some many great clothes, shoes, and food (I get my raw honey there. lol!)
That’s so awesome you’re planting a garden! And I LOVED Julie and Julia too!
