WORLD SERIES BABY!!!

I just had to come on and do a little post on the afternoon of the first world series game.... GO SOX!!! I can't wait for tonight and the rest of the games!

And a special WOO HOO goes to Beckett - lets hope he's on fire tonight like always!!

Yay Fall

I love the summer. It's always been my favorite season and it will most likely forever hold that title. However, lately fall has been "growing on me" (in the words of my friend Kelly). It's not the cold weather or leaves either... as I HATE being cold and leaves get stuck everywhere. It's the apple picking, pies and halloween. Anthony and I recently went apple picking this Saturday and tonight I made the first pie of the season. So now that I have my yummy treat.... bring on the cold... my uggs are patiently waiting :)

Help Stef!

My friend Stefanie is going to a big Quince party on Friday night and needs a really fancy dress. We need to know which one you like!! Comment with your fav choice:

Walk off night...

Ok.. so I know this is supposed to be all about trying to become a good wife blah blah blah but let's face it - i can only show you what we made for dinner last night so many times before it gets stale

so today - I am dedicating my blog to the Boston Red Sox. I mean - the toll booth guy doesn't call me "miss red sox" every morning for nothing!


First off - Papi!



Did you watch last nights game? It was one of those games that makes you totally psyched that you're a sox fan. I LOVE the month of september just because every little pitch really matters and I can't wait for the Yankees to roll in this weekend. I would love nothing more than to see ass-rod blow out his knee on the field, or for Papelbon to drill him in his fugly face. Yes, I hate him almost as much as I hate Posada.


My New Fav - Jacoby Ellsbury




I know i'm probably jumping on some sort of bandwagon here - but I really like this kid. I mean he hits like a freak - he makes key catches and best of all - he's young and could be around for a while. If this is the future of the sox - i like. And I will refrain from buying his t-shirt because every time i buy a t-shirt with a players name on the back, they leave (ie. Millar, Pokey, Mirabelli).

Mirabelli




I couldn't write a sox post without Mirabelli - even though he is on the DL he will always be my pick for cutest red sox - and don't worry dougie, you will not be replaced in my heart by Jacoby.

Pedro gone mad?
Pedro Martinez gets my "you've gone insane" award. Apparently he has lucky midgets. Yes. Midgets.


Don't believe me? Check out this quote:


"To make it this far in this sport, it takes a whole lot of luck, and this has been provided to me by my lucky midget," Martinez said, referring to either two-foot-tall dwarf Nelson de la Rosa, who accompanied him during the Red Sox's historic World Series run in 2004, or one of the 12 other midgets whom Martinez has used as a mascot at various points during his 15-year career.
"Over the years, I've learned the secret to longevity in this game: Whenever your mechanics aren't working or your shoulder starts tightening up during starts, it's time to get a new lucky midget," said Martinez, whose midget friends have each "disappeared" following their dismissal, although Martinez's critics note that the drained corpses of midgets identified as his former good-luck charms have been found on ancient Egyptian holy sites at times coinciding with the start of spring training or immediately following prolonged slumps. "You can't rely on the same old midget for your whole career."

I'm kind of OK with the fact that we don't have him anymore - except when he told babe ruth to come back so he could drill him in the ass... that was funny.





Pedroia vs. Anthony
To end this blog I pose a question to my readers. Does my fiance resemble Dustin Pedroia? People keep telling him they look alike. I'm not sure I see it, do you?

Roses are Red

Tonight - my amazing fiance had a little surprise for me! Last night he worked midnight-8am to do inventory so I knew he was tired all day long, in fact, he napped all day. Then I came home from work and he said he was going to the grocery store to pick up some things. He had put a pizza in the oven for me :)

that's not the surprise

when he came back from the store he brought home my surprise!



isn't he so sweet! He even brought home a gift for my kitty - some wet food! (she only eats dry food)



as you can see she enjoyed it!!

New addition...

Today's blog is dedicated to the new addition to the family:

Warm, soft and absolutely adorable...




THEY ARE MY NEW UGGS!!!!

haha - you laugh but my feet will be roasty and warm this winter... very important to make sure that I do not get COLD FEET :)

I bought my black pair last year and after I realized that I wore them nearly every day for 4 months - it was time to get another pair...

Knotties and Save the Dates

I know I haven't blogged in a while - I've been super busy at work and also wedding planning. I go on theknot.com a lot for my planning and I'm on the message boards talking to other local brides and getting some good - thrifty - ideas :)

The day after the John Mayer concert a couple "knotties" and I met for dinner at California Pizza Kitchen in Natick. Here are some pictures:

Bling Shot:


and here's a group shot:


Also - I've been working on my Save the Date magnets - today when I go over my parents for dinner I'm planning on having my mom and sister (maid of honor) help me assemble them and come up with a list of people to definitely send them to. I think they really tie in the whole "tiffany box" theme. I know this blog isn't very funny but it's a step closer to the wedding!!
