So, if you read my other blog, 365 Days of Happiness, you will know that I joined Meghan at The Perfect Compilation Tape for her Plenty to Be Thankful For Challenge!
Yay!
Today’s topic – the first one – is Guilty Pleasures!! I’m not sure I have a lot of guilty pleasures though, so this might be difficult for me. But here’s my attempt:
** A glass of wine after a long day of work.
In this particular attempt to open a wine bottle the wine opener broke. In the cork. It was a nightmare. Ivan tried to get the cork out but to no avail. I was so desperate for a glass of wine that I drove to the grocery store and bought a (better) wine opener.
Ivan somehow managed to get the cork out of there in one piece.
I was impressed. And happy to finally have a glass of wine. Surprisingly enough I hardly ever have a glass of wine. It’s one of those things I like but I always feel I need to get up to early the next day or stay up late and since wine makes me sleepy I decide against it.
** Coffee!!!
I love coffee! I am actually trying to decrease my caffeine consumption so I have switched to de-caf for the most part, but I still love coffee. I try my best to get Honduran coffee when I can. When I visit Honduras I definitely stock up as much as possible. I don’t currently have any Honduran coffee in the house but every once in a while I see it at the store and pick up a bag. I think that switching to de-caf has increased my coffee consumption because I’m not worried about becoming hyped up on caffeine. Yesterday I had 5 cups of de-caf!! Whoops! I can’t help it – a nice mug of coffee with some half and half and a splash of sugar makes me feel cozy inside!
** New running clothes
I have nicer running clothes than work clothes. It’s a fact. I spend $50 on a new pair of running capris but won’t spend half that on a new pair of work pants. What can I say – I LOVE running gear. It’s definitely a guilty pleasure!
** Reading
I love a good book. I can’t help it. My husband does NOT understand my affinity for reading. He always asks if I get bored reading book after book after book. How could I get bored???? Never gonna happen. I should post on the last few books I’ve read – they’ve been winners. I love cozying up with a good book and cup of coffee on a rainy day. Pure bliss.
** NCIS
I don’t get to watch much TV but when I do I pretty much only watch NCIS. Good thing it’s on almost every night, at least four times. LOVE IT.
What are some of your guilty pleasures???
I totally should have added new running clothes myself !!! Great list !
