Happy Monday Friends....

And aim for my heart

If you feel like

And take me away and make it OK

I swear I'll behave"

LongLazySunday: Week 4

4 Go Team Pancakes!

I can't believe it's already week 4 of the LongLazySunday link up!

This LonglazySunday was definitely looong but i am determined to spend the rest of it in a lazy way.

We woke up too early to exercise before church...yes we are that dedicated.
I was proud of myself considering i was ushering this morning at church.
But as a reward...we had french toast this morning. 
Last week i saw some yummy french toast on the Rolex Release blog and i haven't been able to get it out of my head.  It wasn't the same but it made due. 


After church, the sun was bright but a little nippy.
I do not foresee SNOW in our future at all this winter.


We stopped off at Granny's, had lunch, chatted a bit and watched ice-skating on her television....retro huh.
She says she has had that television since the 1980s.   But when you are 95 years old, you've had everything for a long time.  That lady is too cool.



We then went to Marshall's to do some shopping for the house. 
We realized since we've been married, we haven't really purchased much together
as a married couple so we are changing that on a weekly basis.


The rest of the evening will be spent being lazy including cuddling on the couch, catching up on some magazine reads. And browsing the television. Since NFL is not on,
we will probably try to catch a movie or something.
I have challenged Mr. Pancakes to a camp of Monopoly but we will see if he will play with me.





Hope your sunday was longlazy.
If it is and you have time...grab the button and link up.

Baby...Tag Me One More Time...

13 Go Team Pancakes!
Happy Saturday Friends!!

Carolyn from Life Love & Puppy 
 The lovely Carolyn of Life, Love and Puppy Prints 
has tagged me one more time...
and i couldn't be happier to share my answers with you.
Ladies, you are finding out so much 
about me the last couple of weeks.
Awesome-ness!!!

Carolyn's QUESTIONS

1. Do you have a nickname? Explain what it is and why.
No sadly i do not.  My African name is Naana, because i was named after my grandmother, but it's not a nickname.  It's my name.


2. You're stranded on a desert island. What 3 things do you bring with you?
Mhmm...this is a hard one! How long am i stranded on the island?
 Probably I would bring food (including sweets) because i am assuming there will be lots of water on the island.  Directions to get off the island.  And Mr. Pancakes of course because he would keep me calm and figure out how to survive on an island if the directions were not helpful in getting us off the island.


3. Would you rather eat sweet or salty food?
 What's your favorite food in that category?
Oh another great question.  This is tough because i love both sweet 
and salty foods so it depends on what it is. 
 Fav sweet food item: chocolate. 
 Fav. salty food item: pretzels


4. Are you a heels or a flats type of girl? 
I LOVE wearing heels for short periods of time and LOVE the way it makes me tall.  However i am a flats type of girl at heart for sure!

5. Describe your perfect day. What does it entail?
This is definitely an easy on because it involves longlazy!  Sleeping in with the Mister. Pancakes for breakfast. Lots of cuddling, reading our fav. books or magazines.  Movie and dinner at home.  Time spent with family.  Scrabble. Talking.  
Laughing and JUST spending and sharing time with one another.  

6. What's your worst habit you'd like to break?
It was definitely biting my nails but i have been getting so much better at it.  But lately it's been the P-word...wait for it...wait for it....PROCRASTINATION. BUT i am working on it and many of my blogging friends have been keeping me so accountable.


7. What's your favorite animal?
I am not much of an animal lover which apparently speaks to my lack of empathy towards human-kind so i am probably NOT in the right profession (aka: social worker).  
But i LOVE looking at horses. 


8. What's your favorite type of accessory? Earrings? Shoes? Scarves? And why.
It would definitely be earrings because i NEVER leave home without them.  
I just believe i look like a boy without earrings because my hair is currently naturally short and sassy.  But with natural hair, one needs some funky earrings.

9. If you were famous, would you rather be a movie star, 
a singer or a reality TV star? Why?
Another awesome question, i would be a movie star because it's hard work only for a short period of time during the production and promotion of the movie.  Plus you get to travel and go on exotic locations and get paid millions.  Where do i sign up?? 

10. What made you start your blog? 
Planning my wedding and then it has turned into a wonderful creative outlet where i dream, share and congregate with some amazing ladies.


11. What's one thing that we should know about you? 
I LOVE to laugh about everything.  Sometimes it's nerves but most of the time....laughter is just God's best medicine. If you checked out my post from yesterday, Yellow definitely makes me happy and when i am happy...i laugh of course!!
