I have been enjoying a nice vacations from work the last eleven days. With the holidays, our office was closed so I got to take some time off. It was great timing after all of the craziness from the holidays and countless photo shoots. I got a chance to re-charge as well as get some things done around the house.

This morning, my vacation came to a sad, sad end. My alarm clock went off at 6:30am and I begrudgingly rolled out of bed and got ready for the day. Instead of comfy yoga pants and sweats like the last week and a half, it was time to find my dress pants at the bottom of the dresser drawer.

So, I made my way to work in my grown-up clothes…and FROZE my butt off! Holy heck, why did my first day back at work after vacation have to be the COLDEST day this winter. It was -10°F and that didn’t account for the strong winds. It didn’t help that I forgot a scarf and gloves because I was apparently out of practice for leaving the house. Man oh man, what I wouldn’t have given to stay cuddled up in my warm bed this morning!

If weather like this continues, I can promise that there will be lots of slow cooker and comfort food coming your way, because a girl needs to find some way to warm up with temps like these. But on the bright side, at least I know that I have some of this amazing salad to enjoy for lunch at work this week!
