Picture, Recipe, and Outfit Posts all rolled into one-Five Day Recap?

It's always something... and lately my internet has been "On the fritz", as they say. So that would explain my five day absence. That and the fact that most of this weekend was spent out or in bed, and today was spent on too much homework and group meeting time than a no class day should call for. I did however go to the gym on Lauryn's guest pass with her and Kelly, and I know I'm going to hurt like hell tomorrow (In EVERY muscle, including those I didn't know existed, thanks to the awesome variety of machines at the Y) but I know it will feel SO awesome at the same time. I can't wait until I can start going regularly.

So for the pictures from the last five days, we'll just so a "Picture Post" sort of deal, followed by pictures of MY NEW GREEN (turquoise) SWEATER! I'll also warn you that there are a few pictures of some pretty good (I guess I'm biased but everyone else said it was good too!) food I've made the last week, so if you're hungry, you might want to come back later!

(This picture is actually from LAST LAST friday when I mentioned we went out for Sushi. Finally broke out the Target dress with my ribbed leggings, black booties, and purple bomber)

Made some delish lasagna and hosted a mini dinner party with Betsy, John, Todd, and the lovely Kelly roommate.

Went out, and took good pictures, with some of my favorite ladies :-)

Woke up to shoes spread ALL over my room after an indecisive dressing before going out.

(I've been trying to follow a minimalistic route with the makeup lately)

Hung out with the girls (AND GUYS!)

Put shoes on our heads?

Played Quarters. Should be noted that this game requires skills I certainly don't have.

Made Sausage Spinach and Sun-dried Tomato Pepperoni Pizza

Made one of MY best Chicken stir frys so far- still perfecting that recipe!

So finally, the green sweater! I've actually worn it one or two other times, but this was the first time I took any pictures. No big surprise, but I love it just as much as the orange sweater! I really like how it looked with the black v-neck pocket T (Old Navy) because the two different colors in the knit stand out really well against it. It also makes my eyes look really green, which I guess I figured out this weekend that they are. Strange thing after growing up knowing your eyes change color but thinking they are predominantly blue. My hair was also very haphazardly thrown together and back in a headband after a wake-up call a bit early for my tastes, so disregard.

Sweater and Headband from American Eagle. V-Neck from Old Navy. My best guess is that the necklace is from For Love 21, but who knows!!
