    Dude, I love kale! :) I was so sad when it started tearing me up when I ate it. Aside from collards, it's my favorite green.

    I had a new outfit in for work today (made me feel smoking hot!) and found out I got a substantial raise!

    Made it through another scoring day with top marks and only a mild nervous breakdown.

    Hubby and I had a nice quick dinner out, We then did the weekly grocery shopping, went home & watched some "Marcella" on Netflix . Hubby made fruit smoothies for dessert.

    It tastes like heaven in your mouth! :D

    TBH, I’m not really sure how to describe the taste of something. But composed of is a little bit easier. Of course, there’s the pumpkin! And when I make pumpkin spice flavoured desserts, the spices usually used are cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves and allspice.

    I’ve been trying to find the deluxe version of Taylor Swift’s new album since it’s release and it’s just not available in NZ. Today I received it in the mail from my mom in Canada! :D

    A friend of mine who I used to be super close to but drifted over the past few years got in touch with me a few days ago. It feels like we never left off, and it's so good to have her back in my life again. It's also neat seeing how she has grown and changed in that time. She's good people.

    Don't have to work again until Saturday; I'm going to enjoy these few days off.

    I tried a new recipe and method for cooking chicken wings, and it worked a treat. Delicious.

    Ah! Thanks for the explanation! That'd be what we call Lebkuchengewürz (gingerbread spice). I usually mix it mself, adding a bit of cardamom, but it is also available as ready-to-use mixture.

    The only good thing today is that it's Friday.... But it's only 11 am - still a lot of time left for something really good to happen :)
    Hold on! I got a huge slice of homemade apple tart from our computer guy today =) Yummy breakfast. How could I forget that?! I really need this weekend..
