1. Buy yourself potted winter-season flowers - and watch them bloom!

Mine died too quickly... Time to buy another pot!

2. Make a new dish. I made this in college and haven't made it in +4 years...

Recently saw it on Cupcakes & Cashmere blog...

3. Start a new show. Nick and I are HOOKED onto Game of Thrones now!

We're halfway through Season 2 now. We're trying not to *binge* watch and keep it more measured... Several episodes on the weekends, and 1 episode a weeknight (almost every night but not every single night). Yes, ok, this is still somewhat binge-ing...
