Three Questions Thursday

1. What was your first car?

My first car was a gray 1986 Honda Accord. It was the car I grew up in and therefore held many memories. I somehow didn’t keep this in mind when I failed to yield on a left hand turn and crashed it to pieces. *sigh* The picture below was found online. I promise mine was far prettier and DID not have a scented tree on the rear view mirror. 🙂

2. Favorite guilty pleasure show?

Glee. A show that can make musicals popular and cool again? Yes please! In addition I can enjoy these studs for an hour each week…

3. What are you wearing today?

Ann Taylor Loft black knit dress, JCrew peach Jackie cardigan, and my Lily Pulitzer wedges. This is definitely a go to outfit on a day when I’m rushed and in a hurry. It looks nice and is super comfortable!

Joining the Glee Clan…

I’m not sure where I’ve been for the last few years but until tonight, Bo nor I had ever watched even a minute of Glee.

After this week’s constant Twitter chatter regarding Glee and the episode I went on a hunt to find Season 1 Episode 1. I searched Hulu and other websites but couldn’t find the first episode. I didn’t look on Netflix as I assumed the wait time would be at least a few weeks. Luckily, before I headed over to iTunes to download the episode Bo told me he had received the wonderful email news:

Glee: Season 1: Vol. 1: Disc 2

Arriving on or around: Wednesday, Apr 21, 2010

Knowing that this little red envelope would be waiting for me in our mailbox kept me excited and smiling all day. Today was a grueling day of meetings straight from 9am to 5pm. After sitting quietly in meetings all I wanted to do was get home and sing out along to Glee! Even though I have no artistic abilities at all I am an appreciator. And hey, without appreciators there wouldn’t be a reason for the artists, would there?

Bo and I picked up quick and easy salads on our way home from our new apartment. We had to drop off a few things before the big move on Friday. We gave Organique 

a second try after Saturday’s epic fail. We loved the food Saturday but the service was absolutely horrible! Tonight I went with the safe and simple choice- salad. Organique features far more toppings than the average NYC salad place including sauteed onions, balsamic portabello mushrooms, and lentils! Tonight I went with an Asian theme and made a huge salad filled with:
-romaine
-lentils
-portabello mushrooms
-sauteed onions
-carrots
-edamame
-organic ginger soy dressing

The flavors were perfect and EXACTLY what I was craving. I love that by mixing a new dressing with everyday salad ingredients you can give the vegetables a whole new flavor. Okay, that was a bit obvious, but you know what I mean. Hopefully, after these few stressful weeks are done I can get back to cooking healthy meals on Sunday so we don’t have to pick up takeout on weeknights.

I’m cutting this one short to head over to the sofa and catch the first episode of Glee. Here’s to hoping Bo likes it too!
