Sausage Biscuit + Dreams & Aspirations!

 

Good Morning, friends!

I just got done with a nice 30 minute jog.  It was a little hot out, but I got up early enough to beat the intense Southern heat.  I love getting out before the sun’s coming up because sometimes you catch the most beautiful scenes.  Mine this morning wasn’t exactly the best I’ve ever seen, but I can’t help but love anytime I see sun peeking through trees!

BREAKFAST this morning consisted of a nice cup of coffee that my dad made before heading out on his morning walk {Sometimes I like to treat myself with whipped cream.} And then one of my favorite’s: A vegetarian sausage biscuit.  I use Morning Star Farms sausage and Pillsbury Grand Flaky Layer biscuits.

I got this adorable mug c/o Racoon Spoon last Christmas!  It’s one of my favorites.

This morning on my jog, I was thinking about my dreams… and how they have developed over the years, from a child to an adult.  Did you know that at one point I wanted to be an ER surgeon? {I can thank Grey’s Anatomy for that!} And now… even though I would love to wear comfortable scrubs & shoes to work everyday, I can’t imagine actually enjoying that.  I’m so glad there are people who do though!  As a child, I more than likely wanted to be a teacher because me and my sisters would play school and I had to be the one teaching.  I used a podium, white board, & all!  It’s no surprise that I had a little entrepreneurial spirit in my though – I always wanted to play store, making my sisters purchase items that already belonged to them!  When I got to college though, I settled on business & marketing.  I love the concept of networking (hello!  Obviously why I probably enjoy blogging.)  I love the job I have now, it’s perfectly suited for me, but I know that I have other dreams and aspirations too.  Not that I would ever want to leave where I am now, but I want to eventually do MORE!  I’d like to start my own business.  I’d like to travel with my blog.  I’d like to publish an e-book or two.  I’d like to start a blog conference/workshop in the Southern region.  I’m 25 years old, with a lot that I’d still like to accomplish.  It’s just funny how your dreams change over time – heck, these may all change next year!

  • Is that what you’re doing now?
  • What are some dreams you have now as an adult?

St. Louis Trip

I have a quick 10 minutes to put this blog post together.  I’ve been wanting to share about my trip to St. Louis last week.  It’ll be short and sweet because it was 99.9% business!  I was in a hotel learning millions of amazing things to take back to work.

I have no time to watermark my pictures, so also… don’t steal them!  Thanks!

Quick Reminder: Don’t forget to link-up tomorrow with me and Meg for Bliss!

I left first thing Monday morning and leave it to me – I left all of my professional hanging clothes up in my closet…. so I had a minor panic attack once we hit I-55, but the situation was salvaged thanks to my calm co-worker who didn’t mind turning around and my awesome dad who met us half-way with my clothes (and my straightener, because I forgot that too).

We arrived in St. Louis around 5pm and I went and did a real quick run, then met some girls for dinner.  They were super sweet and I’m so glad I have them as a connection now.

Tuesday was packed with sessions and I got lots of great material.  Before dinner, I rushed out of the hotel to find the arch.  I couldn’t take a ride up, but I did manage to get a few pictures.  The sun was in the perfect spot to blind me during said pictures, so none of these pictures are fabulous of me, but the arch looked beautiful in all it’s glory!  Tuesday night was an amazing dinner at Lucas Grille.  They didn’t have a vegetarian option on our special menu, but I asked and they managed to throw together a delicious mushroom risotto (It amazes me how OKAY I am with eating mushrooms now!)  We also had 2 free drink tickets, so I had a white wine spritzer and a margarita.  Both were heavenly concoctions.

Wednesday was packed with more sessions and then we headed out of there around 2pm.

Enjoy the pictures.  Later in the week, I’ll share about the food from the trip.  Believe me, for a vegetarian, it’s completely worth saving for a post on it’s own!

Sun… all in my eyes!

I really enjoyed St. Louis!  It was beautiful (minus all the ridiculous construction down town).  The food was great, the company at the conference was amazing, and overall I had a wonderful first work trip with my company.
