Little Miss Southern

I picked up the new Southern Lady today, the Christmas version! I love it, the decorating ideas are a fresh take on traditional ideas without clashing with the yearly seasonal traditions. There are even gift ideas for everyone you would want to spend money on. Also the cutest candy cane and peppermint recipes I've ever come across. If you want to pick up Southern Lady I got it in Walmart at the check out.

Walk Though the Leaves

I'm kicking myself for not bring my camera to Skaneateles. The leaves were laying in the strreets like a fresh dusting of fiery snow. Even as his mom and I walked through the town dainty leaves swirled down from the trees all around us. We at lunch at Angel's Heavenly Burgers, might I just add it was delicious. I absolutely gorged myself. After a fantastic lunch, we hopped a crossed the street to Skaneateles Jewelry to "window shop" She looked around and tried a few things on as I trailed behind and complemented her wonderful taste. Then we got to the pearl section. I don't know about you girls but whenever I walk past a jewelry case of pearls my jaw just drops. I gaped at them like Nemo on denstists tools and mentioned that I had owned a set of pearls but my sister stole them and broke them when I was younger. Much to my dismay we drifted away from the case of pearls to look at some chains. On the way out we passed the pearls case and she asked to see the pearl earrings up close. She told me to try on the 4mm pair. I was not going to say no, so I put them in my ears. They looked alittle small to her so she said well why don't you try the 5mm. They were stunning. She asked if I liked them, what was I going to say no? they're pearls for crips sake I was already in love with them. Then she said Happy Birthday. I couldn't believe it. Even my own Mother didn't get me pearls for my birthday. I guess she really must like me.

A Hidden Gem

My mom came up to upstate NY for a visit and she wanted to meet my bf and I for lunch. She suggested this place called Zebbs which I had never heard of before. We pulled in and the parking lot was a dingy shade of gray and there was a run down old boarded up movie theater shoved in the corner. At first we were afraid to go inside but our fear subsided as soon as we stepped to the other side of the door. Zebbs is set up like a cute old burger joint with sacks of potatoes stacked up waist high near the door; apparently aging to make the perfect french fry. It smelled heartily of fresh cookies and burgers, and oldies played in the background. All the burgers are amazing and there is a huge buffet of toppings for them. Also the french onion soup is not to go untasted. The cookies however, are the whole reason I returned before the weekend was over, they are called chocolate chunk cookies, and they are incredible. The come to you in a box of six, warm. They are the kind of cookie you absolutely must eat with milk so don't forget to order some with your cookies! Here is their website because I know you want to check it out for yourself!
