november wrap up: lemon raspberry cheesecake and the national dog show.

life · December 1, 2019

Here is my monthly wrap up of some of the things I’ve watched, eaten or drank, or just loved for the month of November. If you are in the U.S,, I hope everyone had a very happy and food-filled Thanksgiving!

What I’m watching:
I don’t know if you know this about me, but I am not into sports. Unfortunately, on Thanksgiving, that is about the only thing on television. But there is something else I’ve found to watch while everyone else is watching football – The National Dog Show.

I adore the National Dog Show. I adore any dog show really. I love watching the dogs prancing around the ring with their handlers. I love seeing them all prepped and primped, ready for their close-ups. I love seeing dog breeds that you never see on the streets, or breed names I’ve heard of, like the Entlebucher Mountain Dog or the Portuguese Podengo Pequeno. This year the winner was a bulldog – such a good doggo! I can’t wait until next year!

What I’m eating:
Another thing to know about me is that I love chain restaurants. I’m not big on surprises so I like knowing that the food I get at one restaurant is going to be the same at every restaurant.

This month, I went to the Cheesecake Factory and had the best cheesecake. It was a Lemon Raspberry Cream Cheesecake and it was amazing. I would show you a picture but I ate it all before I remembered to take a photo. The cheesecake was sweet but the lemon added some tartness and the flavors just went together so well. I can’t say enough good things other than I may have found my new favorite cheesecake.

What I’m loving:
Lately, I have been loving my fleece-lined leggings. They are so comfy and stretchy and perfect for those chilly Seattle evenings. Just about every day when I come home from work, I change my clothes and throw on my fleece-lined leggings so that I can then lounge around in the evening. I am a huge proponent of always wearing your comfy clothes when you are home and these are just what is needed.

See you next month!
