oh, how pinteresting!

This weeks pins are all about meal prepping. I've become a firm believer in planning meals and so far it's been working to help me in my goal for a healthy 2013. Click on any of the pins to read about the prepped meal.

Best & Worst-Grammy Edition

 Oh, Rhianna. I might not agree on your relationship but I can't deny you were the fiercest thing last night. Her makeup, hair, and look was flawless. This girl has got it going on. She looks like Rhianna when she first came out and that is a good thing. Girl even looked thinner, toned, and dare I say it, happy! I can't say a single negative thing about this look.

  I'm sorry but it looks very S&M like a lease or dog harness. Lose the bangs, too. She needed something short in my opinion. Also, did anyone else notice how she was singing and dancing to every performance like it was all for her? Calm your t!ts, Taylor.

 The greatest part of the night for me was Justin Timberlake. My college roommate had a major crush on this man, and last night for the first time, I realized why. He is fabulous and I told Blake "Marriage looks good on him!" to which he replied, "Call Jessica and tell her that!". Blake makes fun of my pretend friendships with celebrities, but I can't help it. I've included Justin's or JT's performance below.

Saw it, Pinned it, Did it

This is the original pin.

Blake was a great sport about the project. He did all of it while I watched and took pictures of course.

The only thing left to do is take the tape off of the windows, and scrape off any remaining paint. I love how they turned out and am thinking I want to change the hardware now.

Oh, how Pinteresting- Valentine's Edition

Valentine's bark

Superbowl Weekend Recap

Oops, it was actually SATURDAY night!

   Saturday night was spent watching and playing with little Miss. Anna. She is so full of joy and currently loves to dance to the tune of a song that goes "Yea, yea, yea, yea, yeah!" repeat x3. It's fabulous and you can't help but feel giddy watching and cheering her on. I was surprised at how well she goes to bed, it was just too easy. Blake put together the wooden baby stroller pictured above and Anna thought "Screw the doll, I want a ride!", I tried explaining it was meant for the doll which she quickly dismissed and decided it was on to bigger and better toys. Blake then spent the rest of the weekend explaining to anyone that would listen what a good Uncle he was and that Anna had finally warmed up to him. Adorable. We love Anna!
   On Sunday out of nowhere we decided to redecorate the house. It was a lot of work and on Thursday one project became my saw it, pinned it, did it of the week. After decorating I prepped my meals for the beginning of the week, Blake was impressed and proud of me which in turn made me feel good. I napped through the first half of the Beyonce concert Superbowl but woke up in time for Beyonce. It was a really nice weekend, but like all of them it went by to fast.



Cupid's Wishlist

These are just a few things to get my heart racing this Valentine's day. Clearly I am all about getting into shape and these little gems won't help me do it but they will help me look and feel good while doing it! I know my Cupid is out there, take note sweet Cupid!

   I told the Mister that the only thing I want for Valentine's day is to cuddle on the couch, and I am serious about that, but I wouldn't mind finding one other thing ready for me to open. Just saying. Can you believe Valentine's day is next week? I am happy to have said zeta goodbye, we hate to leave you but we really must say, goodbye from Z-T-A, to January. It's my opinion that no one really even likes the month of January and I understand why, it just does, ok!

Take a Picture, It'll last Longer

Really I was and have been in serious meal prep mode.

Just your typical Tuesday night at the Dryden's.

Tuesday's pinterest win: spaghetti squash.

Oh, hey there natural hair, for the first time in my life I like you!

I have been wearing these glittery Toms for close to three years and they have holes in the toe now. On Wednesday I thought they looked disgusting... thoughts?

All of these are pretty much on instagram, if you don't follow me you should @hohodryden.

Fun fact/Favorite of the week:
Monica and Chandler's twins would be 9 this year, Pheobe's triplets 14, Ben 18, and Emma 11. Let's just take a moment to let that sink in.


This is how I feel about Today:
