I like orange

I recently have discovered a love of the color orange, so today I made that love a reality by digging out a sweater from the depths of my closet:

I solemnly promise to work on my photography skills & save you guys from my terrible pictures.

Sexy security badge - all mine

After digging through pictures, it appears that I've had a love affair with orange before. Oh, and also cake. Hellooooooo, cake. Yum. Two cake posts in a day - you can tell where my mind is at. :-) I made that cake for Michael's birthday six years ago, and now I'm craving it again. It is possibly a bit lopsided - please disregard that for a moment, if you would.



And, if I were going to restock my closet & make a fun spring purchase, I would consider this beauty:

Jcrew calls it "modern red", but I think it's really orange. I think it would be super cute with capris or a skirt in the summer. . .

On to the running - I had such a great run last night, that I'm planning on trying it again tonight after the boys are asleep. I've previously dreaded evening runs, but my schedule totally variable based on meetings, events for the boys, etc, so I need to be flexible. The only problem is that I have to eat early & keep dinner very light so that I don't hurl while on the treadmill.

Goal for tonight's run:
Run 3.25 at a pace of 11 (this is fast for me)

.75 walking
