MY FAIR LADY

yesterday i got to hang out with a dear friend i haven't seen in forever. megan (that is her name) used to work at sonic so her schedule was pretty similar to mine, aka all over the place, so it was easy to grab lunch here or there. but recently she started working a nine to fiver, so our days of sipping coffee in the afternoons are over...even though i sometimes long for a consistent 9-5 schedule, it seems like it can suck all the time out of your day, esp if you commute. having a flexible, albeit inconsistent, job schedule does have its perks. what do you think?

we decided to meet halfway between her work and my apt. in a little town called roanoke. i had heard of twisted root burgers and was stoked they happened to have one:)

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

twisted root lived up to its name:) i decided on a mushroom and swiss turkey burger with fried pickles, and it was delish! my only disappointment was that i was too full for a beer or shake. one thing that i thought was super-cute about this restaurant was that instead of giving you a number for your order, they gave you an "alias." I was 'my fair lady.'

i couldn't help but laugh every time a waitress would call out "niel patrick harriss and kim kardashian your orders are ready!"

i failed to mention earlier just how cute roanoke is. this town cannot be more than 10,000 people, but the little downtown area we were in was just adorable! and it's still super close to dallas, denton, etc. basically the town has one main street consisting of various restaurants, with tons of outdoor seating:) there is an outside music pavilion where they have live music in the summer, and just down the street are a slew of the cutest old houses.

this is the cute little downtown area:)

i am forever considering different towns and their move-in potential, and this one would be great to settle down in with some kiddos--one day:) i say that now but i don't really know if i could ever live in a town that small. i would love to consider myself a country girl, but i think i'm going to have to come to grips with the fact that i really am a city girl. what about you?

here's what i wore that night:)

everything F21 except for vintage mini featured on my etsy store!

some of these pics came out a little washed out, but i am proud of myself for taking these all by myself, my first try with the tripod:)

hope your week is going well!
