Top 2 Tuesday!

Today's Top 2 picks are: Top 2 things you want to do before you die

[1] I want to open up my own Bakery. Or little cafe. I love to bake! I've been cooking a lot more lately too, but there's too much variety to actually narrow it down as to the type of restaurant I'd open. But to experiment - I could do that everyday. It beats being cooped up in an office, bored out of my mind ... daydreaming about what ingredients could be altered to make something completely new!

[2] I want to buy a fixer upper and completely re-do it.

Completely gut it out and re-do it! Does that sound crazy?? Although, I don't think I'd sell it once it was complete. I would find some way to keep it in the family or just live in it myself .

So those are my Top 2.

Another story: this morning while carpooling to work with the Hubby, he started talking about this guy at work that had just gotten engaged. And lately, Danny's been working in the appliances department at Best Buy so that guy was there looking for a rice cooker! This is the way Danny told it to me:

Danny: A rice cooker? That's what your woman is for!

Coworker: My woman can barely make cereal :(

Danny: Oh man - you don't have a woman, you have a little girl. [lol. jk] Me? I got me a woman! :)

Oh my Danny. lol.

Top 2 Things You Splurge On

1. As funny as this may sound . . . anything pertaining to the kitchen! Whether its flatware, kitchen electrics - I don't go cheap. Only because I know I'm going to use it often.

2. My haircuts! I have to admit, this is a little pricy. I was just telling my sister the other day, that sometimes I feel spoiled going into a high-end salon and getting my hair done. Cut. Colored. Styled. Whatever. I really enjoy it!

Top 2 Tuesday!

Today's Top 2 Tuesday is Beauty Secrets. Unfortunately I can't be much help here. I rarely wear make-up. When I need to get done up for a big event I just head over to the salon!

1. Clinique Facial/Acne Treatment

I'm one of those people that had to deal with acne. And occasionally I still do. [which sucks!] But anyhow,  I use the 3 step system and follow with the mosturizer.

I love how it smells. Not mediciny at all. And always leaves my face feeling clean.

2. My Straightener.

It's not the Chi but it works really well. At least it used to work great pre-Bonnie/being dropped so many times ... lol. But it's still alive and I will replace it when it doesn't turn on anymore!

In other news, [wedding related] Danny and I went to the courthouse today and got our marriage license

 :-) It was so surreal! So officially, once I go in and file everything and so on, I will no longer be Ms. Jessica R. Cedillo - I will be Mrs. Jessica R. Hilton!

Crazy!  lol.

Top 2 Tuesday!

I've seen a lot of the blogs I read participate in this, so I thought I'd give it a try.

Top 2 Random Facts About Yourself

1. I hate to wear my hair down. And although I know I complain about not being able to wear it down enough - when I actually fix it to wear down, I just end up pinning it back up somehow again. I love the way it looks but down here in South Texas where I live, the humidity is just too unbearable. So really, with my being finicky and all about my hair, I'm still limited as to when and how often I can.

2. I hate my major. I was always too scared to change it. The thoughts I conceived in my head were something like "You're too far in now, it's too late. You're almost done just stick with it. You're gonna need a good back up just incase whatever you really want to do doesn't pan out." And in all honesty, when I was starting out my college career I loved it! It started out with math. All math. Problems, scenarios - numbers. I love math. But then you get into the upper division classes and it all turned to theory. Where'd the numbers go? I know you need to learn the theory to understand how the numbers work and why they belong where they do. But it got so boring and tedious, I got to the point where I'd do enough to get by each class as they came. And I know recently I haven't tried to hide that I'm unhappy with where I am in the "real world", but I'm always thinking of ways I can get out of where I am, do something I love or at least like, and apply what I have gained from my degree so all that time wasn't for nothing.
