Dear Santa

There are only 4 days left until Christmas and I have a short list for Santa that I wanted to share with you all.  I don’t really need much these days.  I’m pretty settled in the clothes department…Anthropologie has made sure of that for sure.  Also, ever since I got my Mac Book Pro last month, I’m pretty content.   The only thing that I really want is a new camera.  I’ve wanted one for over a year now and it’s about time for an upgrade.  The camera that I have now is a digital camera with 5.0 megapixels.  I would love to upgrade my photos on my blog and my personal pictures of my family and friends.  I think that I’ve been a good girl this year, so hopefully Santa will read my list and grant my wish.  Anyways, here are a few things on my wish list (in no specific order):  1) Banana Republic - Gemma Wrap Dress; 2) Incase - Neoprene Sleeve; 3) Banana Republic – Patent Skinny Belt; 4) Canon - EOS Digital Rebel T3; and 5) Coach - Pave Stud Earrings.  Did you create a list for Santa this year?  What’s the number one item on your list?

Moody Style: Sangria

Hi everyone…I hope that you all had a wonderful weekend.  I had a fabulous full weekend, but I didn’t have too much time to rest.  Saturday morning I went to a graduation and a reception for my beautiful cousin, followed by an impromptu get together with really good friends and a bottle of sangria.  Then on Sunday, I went to church, then baked a batch of peanut butter cookies for a cookie swap and then went to a work holiday party later in the evening.  There was some good eats and lots more sangria drinking.   In between all of these events, I wrote up holiday cards and continued some of my Christmas shopping.  I’m still amazed how slow this process is going for me this year.  I’m usually all finished and everything would be wrapped and ready to go by now.  I still have 3 more presents to buy and I haven’t wrapped a single present yet.  I’m feeling the stress right about now, but the several glasses of sangria this weekend really helped me cope.  What about all of you?  Have you finished all of your shopping?  Are you feeling stressed this holiday season?
