Say What?
i had a really clever theme for this post yesterday but alas, i have forgotten it.
last night i made more oreo truffles *sigh*
i was completely and utterly overJOYED when i found PINK CANDY MELTS! at Michael's.
pretty little babies, they are. they actually don't look as stellar as i was expecting, but thats okay. still pretty cute.
they look kind of baby pink here in the picture (which i love) but look a little more...not-so-baby pink in real life. they do, however, taste the same: wonderful. the sprinkles are too much color on the pink and the oreo crumbles on top just look whack, but dats okay.
i think they look aDORable on this cute little pink plate that lauren gave us. loves it. i will return her some treats (these) but will have to keep the baby plate...
good thing tomorrow is miriam's birthday - a wonderful excuse to eat these.
they took a little longer than i remember and i planned on making TWO batches...one with mint oreos!! but i got a little lazy. i still had some pink chocolate melted and didnt want to waste it, though...
ohemgee. so good. and so easy! haha. not that this is a novelty treat or anything.
ok see how here the pink looks more like a piggy-pink? not my fav. maybe its just the dark underneath it that is throwing it off. probably on a cake pop it would be preciosa.
anyhow, i filled a little jar with these and tied it with a ribbon for miriam. then i ran into her when i was going into the office (after my badge wouldn't unlock the door and i followed her in. doh) and i think she saw them but didnt say anything, so...she will be surprised later. maybe.
hmm. what else is happening?
i really like my job. i feel so thankful and lucky/blessed (yes, blessed) that i have a job at all, moreover one that i enjoy, is a great environment, has smart and nice people, and takes care of you (me). i also really love how professional the people on my team are. so what if im 23 and just graduated from college? they still treat me like one of them, even if they are 40 years older than me. it is heart warming. i told rafael this and he was like" adina...its because they are professionals. that's how they should act." haha...right. i knew that.
anyhow, things are good on the work front. sometimes i feel bad, like i don't really "deserve" this job, to be this lucky, i feel guilty, etc. i think that must be the Guilty Jew inside of me. it's that crazy Voice Inside My Head - the one that i know isn't real.
i have actually been doing much better about silencing that crazy little Voice. what a nice feeling!
also, i have been going to yoga more regularly. love it. jocelyn is a new teacher at the studio (tuesdays @ 7:30) and i love her class. so...that is good. and the vista yoga tshirts are adorable. see:facbook
on another jewish note, here is one of the many hilarious jewish haikus that i have in an email (request and i can send to you):
on that note...i need to buy some new work clothes.
florida outlets on friday! yipeee
