Trying my best to capture Audry Hepburn’s style, I wore a striped boat neck top, navy cords, and black flats.
Better view of the floral design on the shirt.
My breakfast cereal didn’t keep me full for very long so I reached for some fruit snacks during the mid-morning hours.
I had leftover cheese tortellini for lunch. I wanted to add some vegetables to the meal but corn was the only frozen veggie left in the freezer. So I just added A LOT of the one vegetable.
I skipped my workout and spent my lunch hour wandering around the Chestnut Hill Mall. Lots of flowers!
Spring floral decorations! This skinny legged bird made me laugh, and so did the giant blue egg in the nest. So cute!
I was planning on hitting up my trail mix stash for an afternoon snack, but I found a plate of leftover turkey sandwiches in the office kitchen. Mmmm, thank you!
I’m always tempted by free food at work. So I try to pack afternoon snack foods that won’t go bad. If I eat something other than what I planned, I just leave my non-perishable snacks in my file cabinet so I can eat them another day.
Jared surprised me with flowers when he came in from work!
Roses and calla lilies are my favorites, and a great way to brighten things up after a less than stellar week.
I was really craving pretzels. And by some stroke of luck, I found a bag in the back of the cabinet! I never buy snack food so I wasn’t expecting to find these. They must’ve been hiding for a while.
I snacked on too many handfuls of pretzels sticks and wasn’t hungry for dinner.
When Jared ate his meal, I ate a green apple with the last of my Barney Butter. I scraped the jar so clean that it’s not even worth saving to make Oats in a Jar. Next time I buy BB, I’m buying the big jar. Barney Butter is amazing!

Sometimes, pretzels for dinner is just necessary after a long week! Hope you have a great weekend!

Thats a really cute outfit! And so sweet that he brought flowers. Sometimes free work food comes at just the right time, and you can’t pass it up!

I LOVE AUdrey Hepburn! I think you channeled her style nicely! I channel it via black skinny pants! The ladies I work with call me “Audrey” a lot because I like the classic look… but I am certainly not as classy as Audrey!
