My Obsession of the Week

Tory Burch has long been a favorite of mine, her classic feminine, yet preppy designs cause myself and many others to swoon over her clothing line, shoes and accessories. Her trademark 'double T' is noticeable without being too in your face. 

Reva Flats

Tory Burch

Such a fun mix of prints and colors. This is certainly
a refreshing updated preppy, yet sophisticated look.

Reva Clutch

I am seriously lusting for these sandals! The tan color would elongate the legs and go with pretty much anything. The possibilities are endless, ah must have!

Nearly Sinless Cornbread

I'm always trying to simplify recipes and make them at least somewhat healthy so I don't feel completely guilty after devouring three servings. My recipe would make Paula Dean shutter, but this is a great alternative  So I found this recipe for lowfat cornbread, one of my favorite indulgences.

1 cup whole wheat flour

1 cup cornmeal

1/4 cup white sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda

3/4 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cup nonfat or plain yogurt 

2 eggs beaten

  Preheat Oven to 400 degrees

Lightly spray 8 x 8 inch baking pan with Pam

In a large bowl, mix flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking soda and salt. 

Stir in the yogurt and eggs until well blended

Pour batter into prepared pan

Bake in oven for 20 to 22 minutes until center is slighty firm

 

Mmm Enjoy!

Hello, 2012!

Happy New Year all! 
Hope you all had a fabulous holiday season and are looking forward to all the wonderful possibilities the new year holds! This year I have decided not to make a new year's resolution, but instead to be the best person I can be one hundred percent of the time and maybe manage my time a little better.


Things that I am looking forward to in 2012:

•     The Bachelor, ABC, Tuesdays 8pm

Last season  on The Bachelorette, when Ashley Herbert declined one of the best and most down to earth guys that have appeared on The Bachelor, we all felt terrible for him as he got off his knee post proposal but secretly sighed in relief that 'This guy is still single!!' My Tuesday night just got a lot more interesting! Can't wait to see Ben weed out the girls as the drama unfolds in the house. Not to mention the fashion! And judging by some of these first impression dresses, could be interesting....or terrible.

• Revenge, ABC, Wednesdays 9pm 

Seriously my favorite new show. Watch a couple episodes and you will be hooked, no lie. Besides the gorgeous cast the Hamptons feel and style has me yearning for summer. Nautical prints and plenty of white for the day and stunning cocktail dresses for evening events. Tune in for the clothes if not for the twisted spiteful story line!

• John Carter of Mars and Battleship  

I will go on and on about Taylor Kitsch and about how Friday Night Lights has to be one of the most under rated and unappreciated TV shows ever. But after a good break, Taylor is finally working and I am dying to see these movies.
