Back to School Red, White, and Blues

Hat: Abercrombie, Cardigan: F21, Flannel: American Eagle, Jeggings: Wal-Mart, Shoes: F21

Today was the first jolly old day back on the Florida State campus (go Noles by the way...Chick-fil-A bowl champs!), so naturally, I decided it would be fitting to take pictures at an old school building. I'm sure most people do that. Or maybe it's just me. I scored this flannel from my sister's give away pile...ching! I knew I wanted to wear this sweater and these shoes because they just look schoolish, at least to me. It worked out pretty sweet!

Since it was the first day back and all, Dusty and I decided to have breakfast at our favorite little waffle joint (Waffle House!!!). In case you have missed me proclaiming my undying love for this place, I'm mildly obsessed with our (yes our) homey little Casa de Waffles. There is nothing like a blueberry waffle to brighten your morning. Ok, well I take that back. Hitting the snooze button at 5:30 AM would have brightened my morning more. Or maybe not having my puppy dog stick his nose in my face at 4:30. But the waffle kind of made it all better. Kind of. And for what it didn't heal, Dusty offered a hug.

Just so you know, 6:00 is cold. No one should ever have to face the outdoors at such an awful hour. Ever. Ok, miss doom and gloom is going to take her pouty little butt and do a quickie reading for class. Oh the joys of college! But to be honest the first day wasn't that bad. And I do ping pong between two buildings all day which are flanked with Starbucks, so that kinda makes things a little better. Now if I could only do something about the parking.

Until tomorrow my lovelies!

Love,

Ramsey

Making Banana Pancakes

Blazer: Gap, Blouse: New York and Co., Ring and Necklace: F21, Pants: F21, Shoes: Steve Madden

Location: awesome historic bed and breakfast...with people inside...probably wondering what the freak was doing posing in their driveway. I have a reputation to uphold.

So I'll be honest, I wasn't completely satisfied with this outfit, but I had to throw something on to go into the office for a bit. They look down on you showing up in your PJ's. Apparently. So it was what it was.

Today was my last day of freedom before my final semester of undergrad. It kinda feels like the first day of school. I feel like I'm five again. I packed my lunch (even though I didn't have a cute little lunchbox, which, like a brat, I wanted), I've picked out my clothes and have my new school supplies ready to go. Only I don't get to ride the bus and my classes last from 8-5. Poops.

We feasted on banana pancakes for dinner. I am convinced that nothing is more comforting than breakfast for dinner...and warm banana pancakes and sausage were just perfect for a back-to-school meal. The oven is now preheating for some warm chocolate melting cake and I am in my long underwear with a scarf around my neck all warm and cozy. Yup, it's a good night.

On a plus note, I didn't run into the co-worker today (see yesterday's post). Maybe he'll forget about the parking lot incident. Maybe.

K, well I just heard the oven beep. Be jealous! I kid. Not. Maybe a little.

P.S. Dusty gave me some awesome cookies today when I went in to work. It made my day just a little sunshiney...sweetness!

Love,

Ramsey
