Don’t really get “winters” here to speak of…just a little rain from time to time. Hopefully this year I won’t be so cold if I can adopt a different breakfast routine (oats rather than smoothies! gasp)

And I am such a coffee addict too that I love your cups of coffee.
My yay: pre writing lots of posts for the week or at least rough drafts b/c of all the recipes I post, I need to get it written down b4 I forget.

Awww, sorry your Monday didn’t start off so hot, but the flannel dress sounds super cute and comfy…at least that was a “yay!” :)
Mmm, I was just at the Cheesecake Factory but I TOTALLY indulged because it’s been ages since I’ve had any. So worth the indulgence too! The White Chocolate Raspberry is my all time favorite, but holy goodness, the Pumpkin Pecan is also to die for!
Hope today is full of “yays!”
Take care hun!
1.) Nay = tons of schoolwork; yay = new episode of ‘Gossip Girl’ and ‘Castle’ were on t.v.
2.) Dreading the snow!
yay-raking leaves
Nay-raking my WHOLE back yard and front yard. It’s much bigger than I realized :)
So jealous that you’re going to the foodbuzz festival. I thought about going, but it was back when I didn’t have so many friends that were going. You’re going to have such a blast!
Hopefully today if more yay-worthy for you, although I don’t think it snowed after all.
Yay–pup’s birthday, so I made his day with a new stuffed Gator (it’s the little things on a Monday…)
Nay–super rainy and cold out, which leads me to your winter question:
Boo for cold weather. I’m always cold to begin with, so I thrive in the summer. I like our snow for the holidays, but the over 100 inches we had last year was a bit extreme. Oy…
Nay – Having to return to work after a lovely weekend getaway.
Yay – Having more bday gifts waiting for me at my desk! :)
I am definitely NOT looking forward to winter. I hatehatehatehate snow!
Seriously, when I grow up, I want to be cool like you! : )
nay: a car accident haha
yay: it’s not monday anymore!
UGH I HATE PB cookie flavor. I wish you talked to me before you ate it I would have ran to Utah and set it on fire before you ate it.
Not a fan of the PB flavour either. It needed some extra PB slathered on top!
1. Yay: Applying for a Starbucks cafe manager position in a different city!!! (shh…it’s still a secret)
Nay: My boss scheduling me to cover a protest during what should have been my lunch break. Not only did I have to chase environmentalists through the woods, but I worked 10 hours straight with barely any time to eat.
2. I’m kinda dreading the snow this year because for the first time, I’m in a place where I’m responsible for shoveling my own driveway. I do however hope it gets cold enough for outdoor ice skating!
1) Yay: getting some positive sounding news about a job I interviewed for last week.
Nay: being dead tired alllll day
2) I’m absolutely dreading winter. I don’t do anything in the snow. And I hate driving in it!
yay : finallllly figuring out a fabulous yet inexpensive birthday idea for my best friend!
nay: monday, nuff said! lol
Monday yay: sweet tater fries. Nay: no workout. I feel like a sloth.
1) Yay: Actually woke up and worked out on a Monday morning. Nay: Had to sacrifice an hour of sleep to workout on a Monday morning…
2) I’m ready for it to cool down in Florida already. It’s been in the upper 80’s all week!
I have a feeling it is only going to get harder to turn down sweets with the holidays coming up. I haven’t been doing the best job lately either, but time to tighten the reigns!
LOVE it!
totally yay day when shopping is in store, but nay when you are having one of those ‘nothing fitting days” i seem to always get those
thanks for the review on the luna bar i was wonderinf about that flavor and just got a case in the mail, so i will hold off on that 1!
Yay: for getting out of work at 1 today.
Nay: I am extremely itchy dont know what its from and have a dr. appt after work :(
I’m so jealous of your possible snow! Now that I’m in LA, I won’t get any :(
My Monday yay/nay
yay- My fiance worked out with me AGAIN this week!
nay- Co-workers not showing up for work when I’m running the shift :(
I’m totally looking forward to winter, even though I’m freezing all the time! I just love bundling up during the cold months and enjoying hot beverages by the fire :)
I like the yay/nay format. Easy, quick and fun to read too. Sorry about the blah bar – I’ve never been a fan of Lunas.
Yay – I finally baked something!
Nay – Arriving at work where the heat was shut down and it was 43 degrees. Inside.
I’m not a fan of winter. I never used to mind it until January 6, 2007 when I rolled my car after hitting a snow drift and black ice. I’m a total chicken on the road now and always pray for no snow.
Yay – wearing a comfortable sweater dress.
Nay – several people in the office telling me that it’s way too big and I look like I’m wearing a potato sack.
Im not a fan of luna bars ’cause they never taste how they say they do! Same with Cliff.. grr!!

Nay- being super bloaty all day!
yay – Had tasty pumpkin almond pancakes for dinner. MMMMM!
nay – I felt tired and lethargic all day. Didn’t get enough sleep the night before.
DREADING IT… I freak out when I have to drive in snow. I partially blame my insanity. However, I believe my piece of crap car has a lot to do with it. I do love Christmas though, which makes up for it! ;)
My yay for Monday — leaving work on time!
I’m dreading winter! I had to scrape ice off my windows this morning and was not too happy about it!
I’m excited for winter but to be fair, I live in southern california so I don’t get “real” winter. Just slighty chilly days mixed in with some HOT days to make everyone else jealous.
Yay: Monday is over. One day closer to Friday.
Nay: I had to wake up really early for work, got a bad night sleep Sunday night, and when that happens I am Miss Munchy…it’s like I have to snack to keep myself awake!
nay: not sleeping a whole lot because I kept hearing noises and of course I became paranoid someone was trying to break in. ha
yay: fab dinner that I made out of the blue with what I had in the kitch (a la janetha)!
I am MOST excited for winter! But like Hallie said in her comment, I am from Cali, so winter is not so much winter–but I associate it with Christmas!!!
yay: eating amy’s curried lentil soup for lunch.
nay: everything else.
yeah, its that kind of day :)
I TOTES thought I commented on this last night! Whoops!
YAY for yesterday: bossy sweaty workout and delicioso food!
NAY for yesterday: getting 5.5 hours of sleep. Still not too bad… I try to forget the nays.
I’m excited for the holiday season, but not necessarily winter. Like, November thru Dec is my fave:
-Bday
-T-day
-Christmas month
-Christmas eve
-Christmas day
-New Year’s Eve
Doesn’t that sound like so much fun? K i’m hopped up on sinus meds right now, so sorry. Anyway, hope today is going swimmingly! Love you!!
Sorry about the lack of sleep and not so fab day. I too hate Subway, and def would have had two + bites of cheesecake. Hell, I would have ordered cheesecake.
1. Yay: intense yoga class Nay: having to wait until 8:30 p.m. for dinner. I like to eat EARLY!
2. Pretty much dreading winter, I’m not a cold-weather lover. That’s why I schedule tropical vacays after the holidays :)
Mmmmm it’s been way to long since I have indulged in some cheesecake!!
I adore snow…that is, IF school gets canceled because of it.
nay: I overslept and missed all my classes
