favorite things...

I was lying in bed last night just thinking about a few of our standbys and favorite things... you know those things that you take for granted because you just use them all the time... and decided to share:

<em>Adidas Men's Supernova</em> Cushion 7 4E Running Shoe Black, <em>Yellow</em>, White  
AJ's fave shoe for marathon training: Adidas Supernova... we have quite a few pairs of these lying around our house... he gets a new pair all the time because of the amount of miles he logs on them.
AJ's fave tool for his millions of home projects: Saws All. This thing is amazing. It tackles deconstructing your house and with the same grace it saws down small trees (I surprised AJ one day by taking down some in our yard).

  Great White 3-Tier Stand`Boardroom dress in superfine cotton

One of Jen's fave dishes for entertaining: the Great White 3 tiered stand from Pottery Barn. Love love love bringing height to a table when doing a dessert bar and this piece does it perfectly.
Jen's fave style dress: J.Crew Boardroom dress (basically all my dresses are shift dresses like this, although I only have one J.Crew because they are soo out of our price range...). Love the professional-ness to the silhouette.


AJ's weakness: Dunkin Donuts iced-coffee
Jen's weakness: Trader Joe's Chocolate Covered PB pretzels (but who are we kidding... these aren't our only weaknesses)

 
AJ's fave marathon: Philadelphia... he says they are the friendliest and best organized
Our jogging stroller (it's coming in the mail in the next few days! I already know it'll be a fave...): BOB Ironman... it's SUPER lightweight, we would know, we ran all around REI with it... I found an amazing deal online that was $100 cheaper than REI at DMart stores. This was a fab gift from AJ's co-workers!

 
Website weaknesses:
AJ loves MLS, a real estate listing service... he's a real estate agent so he's looking at the new listings all over the state daily. Really. It's his addiction. Well... that and running. And destructing things.
I'm in love with Young House Love. And This Old House. And basically any website that gives me incredible before and after home pics... especially when it's a DIY project (do-it-yourself).

  
AJ totally loves the movie Shawshank Redemption. I loved the last scene and was cringing for the rest of the movie.
I am obsessed with the book At Home in Mitford (and the rest of the series). It is this hysterical, and completely relaxing story that you can lose yourself in, about an Episcopal priest.

I could think of a million more things but I'll try not to bore you... :)

  1. Ok Jen, we want the BOB dualie (double jogger) but you practically need a mortgage to buy one...so I think I'll check out that site! Also, Ryan and I LOVE This Old House too!

  2. Christine-
    Have you tried looking on Craigslist for the double joggers? I found a bunch but they go fast!
    Good luck!
