A Week In Photos: Week 3


peace sign

Started biking to work, and as a result ended up at work pretty early a few times which resulted in waiting in the lobby for someone else to open up the office. I have yet to figure out why I sometimes get to work in 10 minutes one day and 20 minutes the other. I guess I don’t realize when I’m speeding down the road, but I’m sure getting there in 10 minutes is because I’m pedaling a lot faster.

valentine's day roses

Roses! Josh knows that if he doesn’t get me roses on special days, I’m not a happy person. Red roses are my favorite flower. I love the smell and look… They’re just amazing. He forgot a vase, but luckily I was finally able to use my white pitcher vase for something. Seeing as how we barely get any natural light in this apartment, I’m betting these will die by Valentine’s Day. But that’s okay, because we celebrated this weekend.

valentine's day makeup

The color on this is not exactly what my makeup looked like in person, but I still like the vintage effect. I don’t wear lipstick often, but going out for lunch to celebrate Valentine’s Day was a good excuse as any to wear red, don’t you agree?

Cafe

We went to Market City Cafe in Burbank. The bread is always tasty fresh and that alone is enough to get me in the door. I’m a carb addict. The last time we ate here, a violin group was playing. No entertainment last weekend, unfortunately. We still had a nice view and I watched the little birds play in the fountain behind us.

couch cushions ikea

The day after that, I turned into a rampaging cleaning lady, which included assigning cleaning tasks and taking on the couch myself. I washed the cover for the first time, and boy am I glad that cover was washable… Apparently our dogs have very dirty feet. Who knew?

    Very pretty flowers. The little restaurant looks very cute. Also, cleaning? You can clean my house any day of the week. I feel like I have a two year old living in my house with all of his toys everywhere every day after I pick them up. :)

    I love red roses too, but no flowers for me this year because I’m scared the cats would eat them o__o

      I’ve heard that it’s okay if pets eat flower petals, as long as you properly rinse them of pesticides. But hey, my dogs have eaten everything from buttons to toilet paper rolls and they’re just fine. hahaha Hope your cute kitties are doing well!
