Are my favorite. I love receiving them and I love sending them. I am sending my Mom this card from Papyrus for Halloween and naturally I decorated the envelope with my own Halloween sketches (ghosts and jacko-lanterns. Papyrus has the best cards that will brighten up anyone's day.

Kiehls...
Is perhaps why I adore Equinox and always find myself taking a shower at the gym. The Creme de Corps and the coconut shampoo and conditioner are amazing! And so is their pear lip balm.

The New Yorkers...
Is the new book I cannot get my head out of. Yesterday, I ran home from work and read two chapters before going to the gym. It is fiction, which I usually detest (I am a biography junkie), but for some reason this book is extremely intriguing. Maybe because it takes place in New York (my home) or maybe because the characters are all intertwined and there is so much that could happen. This book also makes me want to get a dog. (If I were to get a dog it would be a bischon and I would name him "Peeve", simply so I could introduce him as "My Pet Peeve").

I Don't Know How She Does It...
Saw this movie by myself this weekend with a big bag of candy from Dylan's Candy Bar and a bag of popcorn. Review: I love anything with SJP obviously. But movie was only okay. Entertaining on a Sunday afternoon that you would be otherwise doing nothing, but not a movie to write home about. PS-Don't take your boyfriend. Guys will hate it.

Pumpkin...
anything makes my mouth water....Including this recipe a la Hungry Girl that is not even half bad for you...
PS-Up until college, I called a grilled cheese sandwich, a "girl cheese sandwich"...compliments of my mother. Hey what is the difference?

Cece's new favorite activity...
Emailing. Before this...it was YouTube-ing. You would say a word, any word and she would run upstairs to her computer and type that word into YouTube and then proceed to watch every video under the sun about that topic. Some of her most notable obsessions: skunks, spiders (only because they are my archnemisis and she gets joy out of me twitching) and Michael Jackson...
Here is her latest email:

Godiva Truffle of the Month Club...
Can turn a terrible day right back around...Though I loathe getting constant emails from retailers, I do not mind the emails from Godiva. Today, I got my free truffle for the month of September (got the pumpkin spice, obviously) and was coaxed into buying three truffles just to get another free. Did I mention that I adore sweets?

Churrascaria....
Is a "Brazilian Steakhouse"...where you consume abnormal amounts of meat. Last night, (on my bosses credit card) my roommate and I went to Churrascaria Plataforma. I think I consumed every type of meat there is...chicken, lamb, pork, steak, shrimp, bacon, and the list goes on and on. All of this after the intense salad bar and followed by the dessert cart with capipirinhas in between. I think I may have gained a solid ten pounds just at last night's dinner. Our waiter's name was Dino and he looked like someone out of the Sopranos. And by accident, we may have racked up a bill of $300 on the bosses CC...oops...
My plate full of meat...

Birthday Madness...
Too many adult bevs. Enough said. (hey my friends did not allow me to go thirsty on the day of my birth) Hello 26.
Ultimate Hangover Cure: 1 VitaCoco Coconut water, 1 tall Smart Water, plain bagel toasted with butter and a long, cold shower.
This guy will join the 26 club on Sunday. I call him Gilby. He calls me Bo-Peep.

A Little Bit Older and A Little Bit Wiser (I Hope)...
A birthday is an excuse to eat cake all day without feeling guilty, drink too much champagne with friends (or in my case Pinot Grigio) and to splurge on a new outfit (picked up the turquoise silk top and highlighter yellow skirt that I have been lusting after from Ann Taylor already).
Some birthday advice to live by: "Act like a child on your birthday, demand expensive gifts, big cake, a bigger party, and lots of friends. Celebrate it like your rebirth day and start new life again."

A Birthday, A Blog...
My first ever blog post....
Since tomorrow is my 26th birthday, I thought it fitting to start a blog to begin and document my new year. I also had a little inspiration from a fashion blogging event I attended on Friday and from my friend and fellow blogger, Alex. So here it goes...
This bag is on the very top of my birthday wish list....
