3 a.m. trickery and a treat

Hello! And congratulations to everyone on surviving another Thanksgiving. Personally, I have just now awoken from my turkey coma.

Black Friday was quite an event. My mother and I left at 3 a.m., had some Denny's and hit the shops. The crowds were insane, but there's something about Black Friday I like...

It's kind of like this: As a little kid, when you went to bed and people were still over at your house, it just felt wrong, didn't it? Like there was a party going on and you were missing it? That's why I enjoy Black Friday. I like have something to do at the entirely taboo hour of 4 a.m., especially if it involves deals.

Favorite Black Friday purchase:



















Arden B., 25% off. New Year's dress!
I'm going to a 1920's-themed party for New Years, so I figured the feathers work well. Now I just have to find some killer shoes and accessories and I'm good to go. Now, I expected a better sale on the Holy Grail of shopping days, but it was still worth it. We found other wonderful things, but they included flashlights and pillows, and I'm fairly certain you have seen a flashlight before.

Well, since Thanksgiving is dying down, I am heading straight into finals' territory. So here is a snack I rely on heavily for a quick, protein-packed, delicious study break. In fact, it's going to fuel my night of paper writing.

Peanut butter & banana power smoothie


-1/2 banana
-1/2 cup milk
-5 ice cubes

Toss in blender. Blend. Enjoy!

Happy Saturday, everyone!
