Another week, another Monday. I’ve seen lots of blogs post lists of the things they love on other days of the week (Thursday is a popular choice), but Monday seems like the day you need it most! Here are some things that are making my Monday bearable, if not almost-sort-of-not-quite awesome.
- Peppermint mochas! And (shhh!), I have to admit I’m actually quite fond of A Certain Coffeeshop’s holiday cups.
- Super bright interior decoration
- Dancing in the elevator — great way to compose yourself before fully facing the workday
- Thanksgiving! Three days! Mashed potatoes! Stuffing!
- Crazy Bjork music videos
What about you?!

FIRST!!
I’m not a Bjork fan per se but her videos are a kick (“It’s Oh So Quiet” is my favorite).
I enjoy Gingerbread Lattes. <3 I like their holiday cups too!
Oh no, the decorating link led me to paper websites led me to a place where I can buy a letterpress machine!!! Goodbye, contents of bank account!!! ^_^
Mmmm I love the peppermint mochas, too!
A letterpress machine??!! I don’t even know what it is and I want one!
Oooooo, I love this woman’s photography that I found following a link on that decorating page: http://www.etsy.com/shop/urbandesign
Best. Bjork. Video. Ever.
I’m a fan of their fall line up. I’m a downer for Christmas.
*thumbs up on these bullet points*
Currently loving the spiced hot chocolate from my local coffee shop. Catching up on all the blog posts I’ve missed over the weekend helps me get through Monday morning at work <3
Oooh!! My home, should I ever have the privilege of owning one, is going to be painted brightly! Full of drama, life, joy!
I’m a sucker for the Pumpkin Spice latte.
I have the purple wall in my house. Combined with a dark wooden floor… Lovely!
Mondays. Posts like yours on a Monday = Monday less yecchy. And then chocolate! Add a peppermint mocha from a certain coffeeshop: Ah, bliss. Thank you for eye candy, literally ^_^
hmm, nyummy cupcake pic! absolute love your blog. i gave you an award on my blog – go read about it: http://theskinnyonmyjeans.wordpress.com/2009/11/24/thank-you-for-blogging-awards-time/
I adore peppermint mochas! They’re wonderful.
here’s what got me through my [retail] monday this week:
*Coke and Asprin for the migraine from Sunday’s negativity
*a pretzel from PretzelTime
*trying on new shoes in the stockroom
*ogling the Godiva display
*hot rice pudding, minus the rasins
*watching Up with my fiance
if only that could have gotten me through today…
And now I want a peppermint mocha. Darn it! Why doesn’t the red cup crack house deliver? Don’t they know that there are moms sitting home gagging for lattes who can’t just up and nip to the store when they have a little guy asleep upstairs?
“Red cup crack house” is so perfect. I don’t need delivery, though. I need one of those sushi-style conveyor belts that brings me little mocha/latte sample cups every 15 minutes.
