We're Talking TV Ovah Here

The new fall tv season has begun. That means my DVR is my bff right now while all my books sit on the console tables neglected. We have even talked about getting a second DVR unit so that we can record more than two programs at once.* Sad but true.

The thing is that I don't know if I like a show until I've seen it. Obviously. And with so many debuting in the last couple weeks it's been a tough job to narrow it down. While we are still working on it here are a few new favorites:

Blue Bloods-Drama about a family of cops starring my favorite NKOTB fellow & (still sexy) Tom Selleck



Lone Star-A con artist trying to juggle a wife, a girlfriend and his loser Dad



Chase-About a Marshall with dysfunctional upbringing that relates to the criminals she's chasing



Hellcats-College girl joins cheer squad for scholarship money (Why yes I do have 14 year old tastes)



Not to mention my returning shows: Gossip Girl, Sons of Anarchy, The Mentalist, The Good Wife, Survivor, The Real Housewives of Atlanta** and many, many, many more. It's a wonder I get anything done at home.***

What are your new favorites? I'd hate to think I was missing out on some quality tv.

*Ain't happening. Our cable bill is already ridiculous.

**Really looking forward to the Atlanta women after a very lack-luster DC season. Blah.

***Thankfully we have 6 televisions including one in the kitchen.

Autumn, the year's last, loveliest smile.*

Autumn officially starts today at 11:09 PM EST. I guess Mother Nature didn't get the memo though since it's supposed to be 89 degrees today and 94 tomorrow. I put my door thinga-ma-jig up over the weekend but she didn't get that hint either.



No surprise that part of my enthusiam for this season is directly related to food; I already have several soup & stew recipes ready for when the temperatures drop. I've been dreaming for weeks of baking. And apples. And pumpkins. And Starbucks salted caramel hot chocolate. And...well you get the point.

Are you looking forward to Fall? What's your favorite part of this season?

No one can "Keurig" this addiction

This affair started about 10 days ago and already I feel a little Tiger Wood-ish with all the varities I've tried. (ba-dum-bum-CHING!) Caribou, Coffee People, Tulley's, Timothy's and even Gloria Jean have touched these lips.

I love every minute of it.

Even if it only takes a minute. A minute to brew that is, cause I got this little baby from QVC and have fell madly, deeply in love.



Every morning I tweet about what flavor I'm drinking and then say Amen. Cause it's THAT good. And easy.

Before the Keurig, S always made the coffee because while I'm gifted in many, many areas I just never felt like I made a good cup of coffee. That meant on mornings when he wasn't working or out of town, yours truly was coffee-less.

Not a good situation. At. All.

Now we both have steaming hot cups o'joe in whatever flavor we want. This morning he had extra bold and I'm enjoying Gloria Jean's hazelnut. I even ordered some K-Cups called Santa's Brew yesterday so that we celebrate Christmas the proper way.

The Keurig way.

**While yes I am pimping this machine, it's not because I received a dang thing for free. I bought this from QVC because it was a Today's Special Value and on easy pay. (Holla! I love easy pay.) Having said that I'm not above accepting free stuff so... Keurig hook a girl up k?
