I saw this idea for the 12 dates of Christmas on Love Taza's blog back when I was a wee child and obviously fell in love with it because hello? It's Christmas and Love Taza. What's not to love? Anyways, now that I'm married to the bae of all baes and we're about to get hit in the face with finals, birthdays and holiday celebrations, I figured it would be a pretty good time to implement our own "12 dates of Christmas" so we can squeeze in some one-on-one time. (Introvert, ftw.)
Shout out to all girls who wear heels to school/public places on a daily basis. I'm making myself wear them more just so I remember how to walk in heels (there was a very real time 2 years ago where I 100% forgot and looked INCREDIBLY awkward).
I was super starving after getting out of my review, and decided to finally try the "beach babe" at Ivie Juice bar while I waited for Jake to get off work. Can I just take a small second and say how peaceful it was to eat at the bar while looking out the window at Christmas lights? PERFECT.
Interior on point. Atmosphere matters soooo much to me, and their atmosphere is perfect.
My camera battery awesomely died, so sorry these are all iPhone pictures (I know, I promised!) but OMG YOU GUYS THIS ACAI BOWL WAS LITERALLY SO GOOD I CAN'T EVEN COMPREHEND IT. Like, I don't know if I've ever had anything so good in the past 6 months. NOT KIDDING. If you haven't gone, do yourself a favor already!
Color Me Mine, because for some reason it reminds me of Christmas and also PERSONALIZED CERAMICS. Jake picked out this cute tree.
LOOK HOW CUTE JAKE IS. Also, I'm super excited to see our little plate when it's all done being fired. Throw some cookies on there… settle down with Elf... and a glass of milk… ah. Perfection.
We grabbed some Little Caesar's on the way home, because what else do college students eat for dinner? Please note how cute Trixie is as she patiently waits for some pizza.
All in all, I'd say the first date of Christmas was a success!!! Now, to squeeze in 11 more LOL.
XOXO
