Sometimes and Always #17

Sometimes: I am super duper emotional. I cried with Courtney when she cried last night. Eeks. 

Always: I chalk it up to being a woman. Right?

Sometimes: I think Sonic should pay me for all the free advertisement. 

Always: I would be up for a "free drinks forever" reward.


Sometimes: I get tired of Pinterest. Ahhhh, I said it. 

Always: I still think it's really useful for some things.

Sometimes: I cook dinner and it's actually tasty.

Always: When that happens, I expect balloons and streamers to fall from the ceiling.

Shrimp Alfredo. Recipe here. Super easy, super delicious.

Sometimes: I am embarrassed at the tv shows that come from Louisiana. 

Always: They make me laugh...and feel glad to be normal.

Sometimes: I say that I'm not going to make dessert.

Always: I end up caving...we love having a little late night snack!

Chocolate chip muffins.

Sometimes: I am super flattered when people ask me to guest post for them.

Always: I usually wait until the last minute to write them. Oops.

I love that you wear pearls to work...and Sonic I think that I should petition for one to open up near my house so I can stop on my way to work for Cherry Limeade!

Hope you have a great day!

Emily said...

Totally agree with the Sonic comment, ha. You are totally making me want a vanilla diet coke realy bad! :)

Rebekah said...

When I cook dinner I also expect my boyfriend to celebrate! He usually does most of the cooking, but when I do I'm looking for fireworks! lol

Jenna said...

Love your lipstick - it's a great color for you :)

And that shrimp pasta and those chocolate muffins look amazing! Streamers should fall from the ceiling - delicious food is hard work!

I laughed so hard when I read that you expect streamers to fall from the sky when you cook a good meal! I am exactly the same way! I'd really like a medal or something :) haha!

Nicole said...

yum, those muffins look yummy

Chelsea said...

I admit, I cried with Courtney last night too. Glad I'm not the only one. I loooove your lip color in that picture - just gorgeous!! :)

Erin said...

You're so adorable!! :) I'll see if I can talk to someone at Sonic for you ;)

Lauren said...

there's never anything wrong with a little extra dessert! I almost always need something small & sweet to end my night! ha!

Jenny said...

I go to Sonic twice a say! Yesterday the girl finally asked me if I was that thirsty! I told her I am so addicted to the drinks! I would love free drinks for life also! That would be awesome!

I am kinda over Pinterest! I have days that I love it and then days that I don't even want anything to do with it!

Beth Ann said...

That shrimp alfredo looks great...too bad my hubs is unofficially allergic to shrimp. Womp womp. :(

We are also late night snackers and sweet-cravers...but tell me, why does this habit show on MY thighs but not yours?!?!?! =:-p Womp womp...again.

;)

The Presutti's said...

Janna Renee said...

In case you can't see it on your end- the links continue to the right into your add space. I don't even know if that is fixable, but thought you might wanna know! Hope you have a good day pretty girl <3

Courtney B said...

I pretty much use pinterest for recipes. And I pick a new recipe once or twice a week... makes our dinners so much more enjoyable :) Otherwise... I'd be making pasta 3 times a week!

Leanne @ Simply Beautiful said...

I love late night snacks. They will be the death of me and my husband. We're trying to be more healthy right now, and believe me it is tough! Trying to save our sweets for the weekends! Fun post today, happy Tuesday! :)

Faith said...

oh yum! the shrimp alfredo looks delish!! :)

and yes, you should be Sonic's spokeswoman, hehe.

and i never logged into Pinterest ... i just think i won't be interested because i will just have to see all the amazing things that i just can't do ... so i'll rather not, hehe.

Megan said...

I love this post! Such a cute idea :)I am the same way with sweets after dinner- ALWAYS have to cook something up or find something in the pantry!

Janice said...

I'm joining for the first time. :D I'm so glad I discovered your blog. I followed you on GFC. Have a great day!

Just the Two of US said...

Ok, we so need a sonic here, because I used to love it, and they took it down! sad face!
cute post! I'll have to link up sometimes!

lil desiqua said...

Lol I'm from New Jersey-- I hate most of the shows that rep my state! We're not all like that! But I definitely feel your pain!

Shrimp alfredo looks delish- may have to try! Have a great week!

Nikki said...

What? Do you like Courtney?? I don't think Ben is a catch, I didn't want him to be with anyone. Although it was an interesting season because his #2 choice was my Husband's ex from high school ;)

Alyssa said...

I have to admit that I've lost my "Pinterest mojo." It's just not fun for me like it used to be! :(

The Heart Of A Woman said...

I always LOVE reading your blog!

P!nky said...

I cry at tv shows too.......

Shelley said...

So cute! I love the pearls with the scrubs. Haha!

Amanda said...

Hahaha I definitely understand about the whole cooking ordeal.. I can't cook worth anything! Everything I try I fail at.. the only thing I'm good at is tacos! haha :) And I definitely understand about being a rep for a place.. I drink Coke from McDonalds more than anyone I know..haha :) Anyways, great post! Can you explain a little of what the Sometimes, Always is about? THANKS!!
Have an awesome day :)

Whitney @ Everything Happens For a Reason said...

I know what you mean about pinterest. There's are some days where I pin a lot, and then I don't do anything for like a month.

poptartyogini said...

I sometimes think I'm going to understand how pinterest works. I'm always disappointed. It is just pictures of stuff everywhere. I know I'm doing something wrong! I just saw my first episode of trueblood and my husband and I had a discussion about Louisiana. We thought it looked very buggy and hot. They grow their vampires pretty cute though!

lori said...

i wanted to cry with courtney last night too... she was so awful, but i kind of felt bad for her last night.

you're advertising is working for me. i totally want sonic now.

and i almost always want something sweet after dinner. its terrible.

Traci said...

I'm with you on Pinterest. I feel the same about blogs, FB & Twitter sometimes too. I know what you mean about the LA shows but I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE Redneck Vacation! I swear it's the best show on TV. I hate that it's almost over.

Clara said...

I love your blog! I have seen your "sometime-always" link up on other blogs! I am your newest follower!

Lauren said...

Once again I'm pretty sure you're reading my mind. Late night desserts are our downfall! I wake up and tell myself that not a single sweet will pass my lips all day and then BAM 8pm hits and I'm scrounging in the pantry for a sweet treat to bake!

Emily w/Amazing Grapes said...

I thought you did pretty good on timing with sending me mine. :)

maybe we should petition Sonic for you...what do you say?? ;)

Heather said...

Amanda said...

I always chalk crying up to being a woman, what else is this? lol

Liz said...

Um.. You're adorable!!! And your dinner looks amazing Nice work Chef Meg!

Brianna said...

And that shrimp alfredo looks deeeeviiine! I'll have to try it out (:

Alynne Leigh said...

Mmmm! Those muffins look delicious!

Lisa @ MMT said...

Those muffins look delicious! I agree, you should get free drinks from sonic forever :)

Holly said...

Yum. The muffins look great, and LOL at being embarrassed about TV shows that come from your state. I don't think I've ever seen one...

Angie said...

Ha Ha- You totally should get some kind of benefit from Sonic! You talk about them alot LOL :)

I'm the world's worst to bake at night. Talk about packing on the pounds!!!

Ashley said...

Jeez you got me to buy 3 sonic drinks when I was in NM! You should work on commission, for sure.

As for the tv shows - are you referring to Swamp People!? Oh my gosh it's one of my guilty pleasures haha!!

The Little Flapper said...

I am super emotional too. I cry during The Voice auditions. How lame is that? haha
