Reading: Bossypants by Tina Fey & The Great Gatsby. I am loving Bossypants so far. It's hilarious and definitely keeps my attention. It's hard to put down. The Great Gatsby is one of my all time favorites. I'm rereading it since the movie came out. I absolutely adore the movie. If you haven't seen it you need to! 

Doing: Making lots and lots of lattes. It's gotten to the point where I make myself a latte every morning. I'm kind of addicted. Fletcher and I are trying to expand our coffee horizons as well and have been using our french press a lot more instead of just using the aeropress all the time. I kind of love being able to make delicious coffee drinks at home. We have a pretty legit mini coffee shop set up. We just need to invest in an espresso machine next.

Working on: Possibly renaming my blog. I can't decide but I want it to make more sense for me. Honey & Thread just sounded really good at the time and I still like it but I don't even really like honey and I don't sew or anything so I just wanted to come up with something that better describes me and the things I post on here. My blog started as a recipe/lifestyle blog I suppose and now it's more of an everyday photography type blog.

Watching: Dexter. We finally started watching it and it's amazing! Fletcher and I are total movie/tv show junkies. We can binge watch the crap out of some Netflix. I've been wanting to watch Dexter forever and then they took it off of Netflix instant and they finally put it back on so we started it. We are almost to seaon 4 and it just keeps getting better if you ask me. Also, I'm super sad that How I Met Your Mother is ending soon! It's one of our favorites and we are going to miss it so much! Mad Men and True Blood are ending too! Geez! All our tv shows are going off! :(

Loving: My husband, my biff, my parents and my puppy. They have all been amazing lately and I don't know what I'd do without them.

Mother's Day weekend

Mother's Day weekend was wonderful. We got to spend some great quality time with our Momma's and we got to go see The Great Gatsby!

Saturday I spend the day with my parents. I took my Mom out for lunch because it was her birthday. We went to one of our favorite steak houses in Arkansas then we did a little grocery shopping so we could make her birthday cake. This year she requested this cake but with rum. So, we experimented and added a little rum to the batter and made a rum glaze to go under the icing. It was absolutely delicious! I do prefer the original recipe but it wasn't my day. My Mom absolutely loved it. 

On Sunday we had lunch with Fletcher's Mom, his aunt and his Grandpa. Then we took his Mom to see The Great Gatsby. We have been dying to see it and it was amazing! I absolutely adored it. I would love to go see it again and I will most definitely be buying it when it comes out on Blu-Ray. I had to read The Great Gatsby in high school and I loved it. It's my favorite book. I loved the way they incorporated new music into the movie. Gah! I cannot say enough about the film! Loved it! Everyone needs to go see it!

I hope your Mother's Day was wonderful too!
