Is it really Monday? I feel like this weekend flew by. I got a lot done. A little bit of work, a little bit of fun, and a lit bit of housework. So let’s get to it…
Friday: I had 2 days to hurry up and read the Husband’s Secret in order to finish before it was due back at the library but instead I re-designed my blog, duh?! What do you think? I am loving it. It really helped fix some of the issues that I was having with my previous design. I did read a little bit before and after it was done.
Saturday: After a few chores in the morning. I got ready for a lunch date with my friend Debi who I used to work with at a past company. A little selfie was necessary. It also started to snow while I was driving to the restaurant. We went to P.F. Chang’s at Legacy Place. It had been way too long since we saw each other and it was so good to catch up. I was such a bad blogger and didn’t really take many pictures. We split the Chicken lettuce wraps and Crispy Green beans. For our entree we split the Sweet and Sour Chicken with brown rice and for dessert we had the Banana Spring Rolls.
After talking for like 3 hours it was time to go. Since I was at the shopping plaza I just had to stop in to the Victoria’s Secret store. I mean I really need some new bras and underwear to go with my new clothes and I had a $20 off coupon and they were having a sale. The bra I got was only $14.00 which is unheard of for VS. It really is an addiction and I am putting myself on a freeze with them for at least 6 months. Pinky promise.
After that I headed home and took Seamus for a walk, then spent the night reading a bit more and then taking a break to watch the movie Prisoners. The ending was not what I thought it would be but it was still a really good movie.
Sunday: I started the morning with some coffee and finished the book around 10 am. After some lunch and some cleaning I headed out to the library to return some books, then I completed my second Random Act of Kindness. It was so amazing and they were really appreciative. I was almost in tears when I got back to my car. I was so nervous too but it was amazing!
After I left there I went grocery shopping which was a zoo. I even let a guy go ahead of me in line since he only had 1 item so really I did 2 RAC’s in one day! 😉
I got home, put my groceries away and then took Seamus for a walk. I worked on a recipe that I will be sharing tomorrow and watched the Patriots suck wind. I spent the rest of the night vegging out on the couch, watching TV and wasting time on the internet, you know the usual.
What did you do this weekend?
Anyone else a Victoria’s Secret addict like me?

kathy@vodka and soda says
VS stuff is so expensive it’s ridonculous!!! and whenever they have sales, my size is NEVER there so i’ve resigned myself to regular boring looking underpants 🙁
Kerry says
It is but it was 5 for $20 so it wasn’t bad and I had a coupon. Normally everything is picked over and there are no sizes available but this store was in an outlet not a mall, so it was surprising really well stocked. I lucked out. Though I totally know what you mean.
Sharon says
Mmm all the PF Chang’s food looks so yummy! $14 for a bra is a really good deal at VS. All the stores were having major sales this weekend!
-Sharon
Kerry says
It was so good. It is almost unheard of to get a bra that cheap there so I had to snag it, right?! Or at least that is what I am telling myself! Haha! Hope you scored some good deals too!
Pinky says
That food looks amazing, and I’ve been interested in that book too.
Kerry says
Thank you it was so delicious and fairly healthy. It was good but it was not a hearts and flowers book either. Very interesting ending, worth the read!
Helene says
who isn’t a VS addict?! i need to go shopping! love your hair, you look gorgeous! and so awesome about your random act of kindness!
Kerry says
I know right?! Ok now I don’t feel so bad. 🙂 Thank you so much, it is getting really long! It was so fun, I can’t wait to be reveal it on Thursday.
Kelly Louise says
i love changs! almosttttt went there yesterday. i’m not a huge fan of VS, i don’t have the best luck there and it’s too expensive for things i don’t feel fit me right. my body is weird i guess haha. i do like their sweatshirts at vspink though!!
that pats game was…. eek!
Kerry says
The food was so good at Chang’s! It had been awhile since I’ve been there. I usually get a lot of the same things but they are hit or miss on some of their tops. I only buy their sale or clearance stuff or it gets really expensive. It was so depressing watching that game.
Morgan says
Love the new blog design!
Kerry says
Thank you! It wasn’t too hard to install either.
SMD @ Life According to Steph says
I’m not a Vicky’s fan. I refuse to spend so much on a bra when I hate wearing bras. They don’t fit me well either.
Those banana spring rolls look fabulous!
Your side bar looks great.
Kerry says
I know normally my bras come from Target but $14 was a steal. They were so good and had a little caramel mixed in. The design was perfect since I could still keep some elements and color scheme and it was pretty easy to install too.
Stephanie says
Bahahaha I knew as soon as you said that on instagram that you’d be back in VS in no time!! Seriously though, it’s addicting. I can’t stop. I’m on their highest level with their credit card – they send me a Christmas gift. I should be embarrassed by that, but I’m totally not.
Seamus in the snow is so cute! Hawkeye won’t walk in it, she’s got that ‘the shit is this?!’ face and tries to climb my legs so I’ll carry her.
Kerry says
It is so addicting! Me too!! I joke because I have the VIP black card, like P. Diddy! The amount of coupons and emails with discounts is outrageous so it’s hard to say no.
Haha! That is too funny, poor Hawkeye! Seamus tolerates it until it is taller than him then he gets all pissy and makes me shovel a path for him. I hate it since his hair gets all out of control puffy and curly and he hates to be brushed. Little dog problems!!
Carrie @LittleBirdBlogs says
Lucky me I don’t have to be a VS addict, my husband holds that title! 😀 And because it was our anniversary Friday he gifted me with lots of goodies from VS. I’m wearing my super comfy VS Sleepover pi’s right now. 😀
Stopping by from the linky <3
Kerry says
Wait, no fair!! Haha! Sounds like a good hubby! Aren’t their PJ’s so comfy! I live in their boyfriend pants too on the weekends! Happy Belated Anniversary!
Leeann @ Join the Gossip says
Haha I saw your IG – so you ended up going in to VS? I love it 🙂
And good for you with the random act of kindness. That’s really awesome! I hope that karma returns the favor and you have a great week!
Thanks for linking up!
Kerry says
It was really hard to resist, I mean I was right there!! Haha! Thanks, girl! It was just so fun doing it and to see their reactions!
Danae says
I swear my body turns green with envy when you post Victoria Secret stuff.
Kerry says
Then you must be the Grinch colored because girl it is a sickness!! I am shutting myself off though. Especially after buying oil heat! Now I’m poor! Not really, but I feel it.
Melissa @ Loving Life Moore says
Ooooof I’ve put myself on a spending freeze for the time being, but I’m obsessed with VS! I’m going to miss having no tax in NH because it makes justifying my addiction worthwhile haha
Kerry says
I am supposed to be on a spending freeze but I totally failed! Haha! Tax free NH makes it so much easier to justify. I love shopping in Nashua when I visit my best friend because of the tax savings.
Bella @ Dateless in Dallas says
I love VS! I am addicted! Especially after I got a VS credit card, now they have all my money!
Sounds like you had a good weekend. I need to finish reading this book I started this year.
Thanks for linkin’ up with us!
Kerry says
They have all mine too. So many cute things to buy! Thanks for hosting!
elleseesyou says
have to say i didnt do anything nearly as awesome as you!!
Kerry says
Haha!! It is probably just because I have to shove everything into the weekends, it seems cooler that it really is, promise! 😉
Jessica says
I’m a VS addict. I have to force myself to stay out of there!! I entered a giveaway earlier for a $50 VS gift card!
Kerry says
It really is a struggle to not buy anything from there, but I have to cut myself off. It usually goes in stages with me though. I buy a lot then nothing for awhile. Me too!! As if I need anything else, right?! Haha!
Jessica Gardner says
I am addicted to Victoria Secret as well!! So much so, I opened a credit card with them to just get some discounts… BAD BAD SHOPPER!!! lol Sounds like a great weekend though & I agree.. Is it monday really???
Kerry says
They have the best discounts and rewards. I have the black VIP credit card (I have had a VS card for like 15 years) so like everyday I get some new sale or reward code, it is SO.HARD.TO.RESIST!!! Haha! Monday really needs to go away! Three day weekends for all!!
Lauren says
But what was the random act? Are you going to fill us in later? Kerry you should know I’m not good with suspense! Also, how is that book? I saw someone tweeting about it so I may have to add it to my to read list!
Kerry says
I will be filling you in later! It was delivering coffee but that is all I am saying until Thursday! 🙂 It was good. It was a little weird in that it wasn’t a happy go lucky book and the ending was kinda interesting. I am still trying to figure out how I feel about it so I can write a review but I do think it is worth a read.
Alyssa says
Sounds like a productive fun weekend! I love the pictures of the food!!
I just started up a new link up called a condensed version of my weekend and would LOVE if you wanted to link up! Happy Monday!
Kerry says
Thank you! It was so yummy and it’s been awhile since I had been to PF Changs. I will be sure to check it out. Thanks! Hope you have a great week!
Amanda says
I love the new look, you did a GREAT job!!!! Doesn’t it feel so amazing to spruce things up?
PF Changs crispy green beans are SO GOOD. I could seriously order 2 plates and make a meal out of those bad boys alone.
I think you need a Victoria’s Secret intervention… ;P
Kerry says
Thank you. I actually got it through a designer on Etsy. I just did the install and a few tweaks. I had been looking forever for a design I liked, so glad I found it. The crispy green beans were so good, and the sauce it came with, heaven! I really do, I am going to try and not buy anything at least until the summer. It is an obsession.
Mandy says
I think you are doing enough shopping at VS for the rest of us! I always have trouble finding my size there & since we are trying to save right now I haven’t even stepped foot in the store.
Kerry says
I know right?! It’s a problem! I am supposed to be on a spending freeze. Though with everything including the coupon and the sale, I only spent 23 dollars and change. Score!
Mandy says
At $23 you basically HAVE to buy everything!
Erin says
umm that VS bag is making me jealous!! I want to go so bad but am trying not to spend haha
Kerry says
I really was trying not to spend too, but it didn’t work!! Haha!! I had a coupon and it was a sale but I still fail at life! Womp womp! Though I still put money into savings this month so I still call it a win!
Liz @ Fitness Blondie says
holy mother that dessert looks absolutely delicious! also, that sounds like an interesting book…?!?!!??!
Kerry says
It was so good and they were small so the calorie count had to be small, right?! No?! Yeah I didn’t think so either! Haha! It was really interesting it was a little bit of a downer, which you know me, but it was realistic and believable. A lot of intersecting plot lines. Worth a read for sure!
Heather (@mylittlehea) says
I’m definitely an addict when it comes to VS! Look at all that snow. Sometimes I get jealous that we don’t get any but then I remember we have the beach and don’t have to drive in it! I love the new look of the blog your sidebar is totally rocking it!
Kerry says
It really is an addiction. I won’t be jealous it is really cold and messy. i would much prefer the beach!! Thank you, I was so happy to find a design I really liked and it was so easy to install.
Kate @ Another Clean Slate says
Well, how much did you love the book? It is a new fave of mine. And your blog design looks great!
Kerry says
I can’t really tell how I feel about it. It was really a grey area kinda book and I felt bad for everyone. It is not my normal type of book since it was a little bit of a downer, but I totally think it was worth the read. Thank you, the design was exactly what I was looking for while still keeping some of my own elements.
Maddie says
I rarely buy anything at VS but they send me a coupon for a free panty every month, no purchase necessary. haha I take them up on their offer;)
Kerry says
Trust me it is a good thing you don’t, my wallet is rebelling! Never turn down free underwear! Haha!
Stacia says
I would be a VS addict if our pocketbooks could handle it. My bridesmaids spoiled me with my wedding, so I’ve just been taking the worlds best care of those for now. 🙂
I also adore PF Chang’s!! They have a great GF menu and a GF kitchen so there is NO cross-contamination! YAY for being able to eat out on special occasions without any worry of getting sick!!!! haha. P.S. I’ve worked your “going GF” blog post suggestion in to a 6 part (haha) series around March. You planted a seed that just kept growing!
Kerry says
I really only shop there when they have a sale or like 60-70% off clearance. They can get a little pricey! They had some many healthy options, I was surprised but pleased. That is so cool! I am really excited to read it since I have been trying to go more Gluten Free lately.
Kimberlee VDW (@KimberleeVDW) says
Sounds like you got a lot done! The snow has been making me lazy lol need to get a lot done before school starts up again Monday. Love me some PF Changs!
Thanks for linking up 🙂
Kerry says
The food was delicious. I am so over the cold so hopefully it warms up!
