Cheating

Friends, I have to fess up - these are not the shoes I wore today with my outfit. That's right, I'm a shoe faker today. The shoes in today's photo are the same ones I wore yesterday. And while I love love love them (yes, 3 love's worth!) they are a half size too small and I just couldn't bare (bear?) another day of sore feetsies. So I wore pointed flats at work (which I thought looked very Audrey Hepburn with my cropped cigarette pants!) and switched to the heels for my photos.

This sweater is one of my purchases from last week's trip to Montreal. I got lots of compliments on it which was nice...and I'm really excited to wear it this spring. I have all kinds of outfit ideas for it, like pairing it with my cropped white skinny jeans, or with a big brown leather belt and a pair of denim cut off shorts and a long necklace. Holy crap summer get here soon! I can't wait for you any longer!


With D home from school these past 2 weeks, we haven't really been eating very healthy, so tonight I decided I was 1- going to actually cook something, and 2- going to make it meatless and (somewhat) healthy. So tostadas was the result:

Doesn't look like much, but they were delicious (if I do say so myself!) There's a crunchy corn tostada as a base layer, a layer of canned refried beans (I usually try and avoid canned foods like this and make them myself for a healthier option, but sadly I've never been able to master the refried bean, so canned it is), homemade guacamole (with tomatoes, a whole whack of cilantro, lime juice, chopped and seeded tomatoes and a few splashes of hot sauce), chopped lettuce, chipotle salsa and a bit of cheddar on top (I usually eat these without cheese, but D is a bad food influence and I couldn't resist once I covered his with cheese!). Yummy!
