a coffee date.

If you and I were to go on a coffee date, I would probably talk your ear off.

See, when I have cup of coffee in my hand, and a friend in front of me, my mind gets going so fast and, well, I ramble.

I would probably tell you about the fun time I had last weekend at the Shine Project Event in Dallas. I spent a lot of time chatting with Sarah, who I thoroughly enjoyed meeting. I'd also tell you that I sort of have a problem. You see, when I get around people I don't know, I clam up. David went with me to event (which in hindsight probably wasn't great for me....) and he helped "break the ice"... if you will. I'm just shy around folks I don't know. And I really want to work on this. Especially since I'll be at the Snap conference in just a little over a month!

I would also tell you that eating a salad (and only a salad) for lunch is a great idea... in theory. However, it just isn't enough for me. No matter how big it is. I was starving by 4!! Gimme a cheeseburger, please!

If we were drinking coffee we would probably sit and chat about how much we both love Target (I mean, who doesn't love Target?) And I would confess to you that I snuck away one evening this week and had some me time trying on clothes and scrounging through the kitchen stuff. It was amazing!

Also, I like iced coffee. And could drink it 12 months out of the year. Yes. I. Could. (and do)

I would happily report to you that Nothing Bunt Cakes surprised us at work this week with... what do you know? Mini bunt cakes. Holy Moly these things are good.

If you & I were on a coffee date, I would probably tell you about the "paper bag" shorts pattern that I drafted this week. Oh, man are they cute. I promise, this picture doesn't do them justice. Working on tweaking a few things & writing up a DIY for all of you guys!

And lastly, I would tell you how excited I am that in exactly one week from tomorrow, David and I will be heading to Disney World with my family!!!!!!!!

What would you have to chat about if we were on a coffee date? (don't let me talk your ear off toooo much!)

I'm linking up here, here, & here today!

  1. It was so fun meeting you too!!! And I agree - salad isn't enough to fill me up either :) Have fun at Disney World!

  2. I'm the same way with people I don't know. It gets so hard to make small talk literally out of nothing. I just won a gift card to Target and have so many different ideas what to spend it on! Cannot wait to see the tutorial for the paper bag shorts! I'm in a very slow process of doing the skirt!

  3. Cute! I would LOVE to have a coffee date with you someday :-) I would probably talk about the weather. I'm kind of a weather nerd like that!

  4. You are so adorable...I would love to have coffee with you someday! :) But yes, I'm definitely shy around people I don't know, sometimes even around people I do know!

    Hope your weekend is wonderful, dear. :)

  6. Bunt cake sounds so yum! Always makes me think of my big fat greek wedding.
    Wish I was headed to SNAP, just couldn't decide.

  8. I would tell you about my life here in England and France, and ask you about life in America. Then we would go to Target as I've never been!

  9. I would have never guessed that you were shy! Don't worry Carrie and I have your back at SNAP girlfriend. We're going to have so much fun! I would also tell you that salad is not a filler and that I would be craving a cheeseburger by 4pm too. Hope you have an amazing time at Disneyworld.

  14. Hopped over from Alissa's coffee date:

    Those shorts are cute! I can't wait for the tutorial...
    Maybe a new pair of shorts will keep me away from the Target Clearance rack for a while. :)

  16. I would tell you that I want to be in your sewing class and that you inspire me as a sewer to try new things. Also that I love your fashion sense and cute crafty projects you share on your blog.

  17. Hello Caroline! :) I've just find you blog (few days ago), but I really like it, it's amazing :) I'm coffee-addict too (especially iced-coffee) and I'm a jewelry maker in Hungary. Love your instafriday and outfit posts, you look nice and the pics at the post "trifting adventure" are sooo beautiful!!! Have a great weekend with lots of coffee ;))

  18. You are just to cute to be shy, but I am also shy around people that I haven't met before. I drink one cup of coffee a week on Sunday morning in Sunday School. There is no way a salad would fill me up unless I had a steak and baked potato with it.

  19. Haha I talk people's ears off when I go for coffee too. And yes, who doesn't love Target!? Although I'm learning to stay away on the weekends...
