so excited for october




is anyone else excited for october and the sox? right after i saw this commercial i was standing in the post office on 6th ave waiting to mail something (obviously). and what song comes on other than Sweet Caroline...what are the odds. and yes...i did break out in song....i was stared at :)

sneaky king



a simple commercial that shows the humor behind the secretive efforts of competitors. but how hard could it be...english muffin, egg, sausage, and cheese...right?

not sure what about this commercial i love but i think its because i love BK's commercials, hate McDs commercials, but hate BK's food and can tolerate McDs food.

Welcome to the dark side.......



Has anyone tried the Dark Cherry Mocha @ Starbucks? It came out a few weeks ago...basically chocolate, dark cheery syrup, milk, whip, and chocolate curly sprinkles in a cup for $4ish. Good cold day drink.

I had not tried one until I walked into the Starbucks on SW 6th and Jackson Street (Broadway Housing Bldg Starbucks) and saw the FREAKING AWESOME drawings the baristas had made to promote the drink.

I love when stores are allowed to express their own individuality and personalities. Plus...me being a big Starwars geek helps too..... :) This twist on the 'corporate infused' advertising definitely convinced me to try their tasty treat. If you get a chance run to this SB and see if the drawings are still up because it will put a "all-day smile" on your face!!!!!!!

And we begin....

Beginning thoughts: I have never wanted to keep a blog...I have never thought that the inner workings of my mind would be interesting to the world outside my brain. But, I do like the idea of have a place in cyberspace to keep ideas and interesting things. And so...here I go!
