What’s better than carving and painting jack-o-lanterns?
Eating pumpkin … At least for yours truly!
I’ve already gone PSL-out and then some:
Pepperidge Farm Pumpkin Cheesecake dessert cookies & Pumpkin Spice Milano + Blue Diamond Pumpkin Spice Almonds from CVS | Quest Bar Pumpkin Pie energy bar (which we used to give away from Pretty Fit) from Market Street
In fact, I used to buy a full pie for the fam to celebrate Halloween/Thanksgiving/my sis‘ birthday since college
(the Fazoli’s Ghirardelli tops a close 2nd)
I’m flipping over this YOLO–yo!
TGIF *Friday Night* Addendum
Now I’m somewhat relieved that this weekend’s Halloween party has been canceled/postponed due to t-storms (Hurricane Patricia’s just further down south) ~ so in addition to preparing for my next round, I also can have some down time …
Bring on the cozy comforts of hot cocoa & mac ‘n’ cheese, please!

Happy National Dessert Day!
My peers who’ve preceded me in finishing their doctor of philosophy degrees can agree:
Cleaner and clearer are better.
That means: clean desks and clear minds …
Plus clean PowerPoints to clear our minds!
Two of my esteemed classmates who graduated a few years ago and whose guidance I sought for my paper and slideshow both explicitly pointed out that I most certainly must cut back
Down to 120-140 slides, no more than 150!
As the ☼summer☼ drew to a close ~ during my most recent hurdle (that lasted four months as we entered fall term), my statistics ~ I already reached 300+ slides and reached 300+ pages of my dissertation
Yet that’s way too many to fit into a two-hour presentation (including professors‘ Q&A) ~ so I’ve reduced down to almost ½ so far!
This slide: an indicator that I measured a TON of stats! I ended up taking out 50+ slides last night … Shooting to eliminate more. Next issue: making sure that the fewer slides that I look less cluttered!
Just as I’ve had to minimize my clutter-bug and shutter-bug ways, I’m also de-cluttering / cleaning and clearing up my PowerPoint
That way, I can advance into the next round!

Throwback from my first Myspace song …
… Which is the inspiration behind my most frequent ☼summer☼ dessert lately:
Banana Ice Cream!!!
Here are a few different from-fresh-to-frozen banana batches from this past week:
More music inspiration from Jack Johnson …

TGIF!
Red & Purple: Color-coordinating with the Paris-inspired wall!
Last Friday night, my Church💒 Bestie, Evie, and I were in for a treat …
Sweets du Jour🗼, my favorite 🍩bakery🍮 in town, offered dinner, so we’re were honored to be their first evening guests!
Appetizer: Tomato Basil Mozzarella Tart
We indulged in a five-course meal.
Soup: Italian Sausage Tortellini
All of the flavors were mighty tasty …
Salad: Pear Walnut with Dijon
From savory to sweet, it couldn’t be beat, as we needed the heat from the cold, even if it was bold!
Main Course: Asparagus Lasagna
Meanwhile, we enjoyed having it to ourselves!
Sweeten the Deal: Caramel Apple Cheesecake for Dessert
Hopefully, this eatery will open its doors again for more dinner parties!
Complete with Coffee!
Bon apetit! 👌

Happy Meatless Friday!
My Top Tasty Treats to satisfy my sensation for sweets since ringing in 2014 are {drumroll, please}
- Siviero Maria Tiramisu Gelato
What’s better than these two edibles?
Eat in moderation … Limit your portions!
How about both of them put together?
And to top it off …
Now this is berry healthy!
Strawberries sweeten the deal.
Enjoy your weekend! Happy Early April Fools’ Day ~ start planning your pranks!!!
