This post is going to be all over the place, you have been warned.
First Things First:
Facebook! The Babbling Brunette now has a Fan Page on Facebook! Feel free to head on over there and "like" it whenever you decide.
My New Favorite Find:
This fruit spread is wonderful. I stumbled upon it while I was at Henry's getting Almond Butter for the best half. I like to have some sort of fruit spread on whole wheat toast for breakfast sometimes and I was worried that this would be tart, you know without any added sugars and the like. Well guess what, it's not! It is the perfect amount of sweet (in my opinion) and even better because it's not full of chemicals and junk! I will certainly be buying this again.

My Latest Revelation:
I am no longer 18 years old. Pretty far from it actually. My supervisors at work always joke that I am an old soul. It's actually an assessment I completely agree with. I love watching reruns of old TV shows, listening to music on 105.7 The Walrus, and critiquing the attitudes and behaviors of today's teenagers.
That being said, when I was shopping this weekend I finally accepted that I'm nearing my mid-twenties. I started out at stores like Forever21 and Charlotte Russe. The clothing fit just fine but every time I looked in the mirror I saw a woman who was trying to dress like a teen. It was bad friends. Top that off with the fact that the music was way too loud in those stores and I was certainly out of place.
I headed over to Gap and The Limited where I not only found and purchased items, but I felt like I was back in my comfort zone. This isn't to say I may never find something I like and can wear from the other stores, it just means they probably are no longer my go to places. The best thing about this revelation is that I'm absolutely okay with it. The last few years of my twenties have been wonderful. I've had positive career changes, made incredible new friends, become an Aunt, a pet parent, and will be marrying my best friend. Yes, the twenties have treated me well and I shall embrace the remainder of my twenties with open arms.
