A month or two ago, I saw a survey pop up on Chelsey’s blog and bookmarked it because it seemed like a lot of fun! (Speaking of Chelsey, she is currently pregnant with twins! Check out her blog for all the details and to wish her congratulations. What wonderful news!)
Anyway, this survey is appropriately called “currently” and takes you through some things I’m currently loving. Feel free to play along in the comments section!
Current Book(s):
On my recent vacation I read Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? by Mindy Kaling and loved it! It’s a quick, hilarious read.
I also read Summerland by Elin Hilderbrand. A previous passenger left it on the boat that we stayed on in the Galapagos Islands and I breezed through it. A bunch of side stories surrounded the main plot and kept me interested. It was an easy read. A great beach book!
Current Music:
Even though I ran in the ZOOMA half marathon back in January, I am still rockin’ my half marathon playlist.
It is probably my favorite workout playlist to date and never fails to pump me up.
Another song I am loving? Mission Bells by Fighting Gravity. A friend of mine burned it onto CD for me in high school and I recently rediscovered it. Such a great song!
Current Guilty Pleasure:
Malted milk balls. I never used to like these things, but lately I think they’re freaking amazing. I get them from the bulk bins at Earth Origins (10x better than Whoppers) and love them.
Current Nail Color:
Bright pink! I also tried sea foam green a week or so ago and liked it, but I always seem to go back to pink.
Current Drink:
Sparkling water. Always a favorite!
Current Food:
Kettle corn. I can’t get enough of it lately. Also, almond butter.
Current Favorite Show:
The Big Bang Theory! So, so great!
“Penny!” (knock, knock, knock) “Penny!” (knock, knock, knock) “Penny!” (knock, knock, knock)
Current Wish List:
I need to find a pair of strappy silver heels to wear to my friend Laurel’s wedding next weekend.
All of the bridesmaids are supposed to wear strappy or open-toe silver heels with our long, lilac dresses and I am on the lookout!
Current needs:
A haircut.
Current Indulgence:
Ice cream. Always, always ice cream.
Current Blessing:
The ability to travel. Traveling lights a fire within me and I am so grateful for the ability to explore some of the fabulous places on this planet.
Another blessing is our small group. I cannot express how much Ryan and I love our small group and the discussions we have with such a wonderful group of people.
Current Outfit:
Right now I’m typing up this post in my pajamas but my current favorite thing to wear is a maxi dress. So darn comfortable!
Current Excitement:
My friend Laurel’s bridal shower this Sunday! And her wedding next week!

The big bang theory is amazing! I’ve been quite obsessed for a while now….and ever since you mentioned that Leonard is Rusty Griswold, I love it even more!
I’m so obsessed with the Big Bang Theory. The entire cast is so amazing and really makes the show shine.
My current favorite shows are probably the Vampire Diaries and Nashville. I still need to catch up on the Vampire Diaries’ episode from last night, but Nashville is getting INTENSE! Love the cast on both of these, too! I’m a very cast-oriented person when it comes to TV. 🙂
◾Current Guilty Pleasure?
Tim Horton’s coffee. I’m having a cup right now and I don’t usually buy my coffee before work, so it’s a real treat when I do. 🙂
◾Current Blessing?
The fact that the company I work for is very generous with vacation time, and that has allowed me to visit my parents more often who just moved 5 states away.
◾Current Favorite Show?
The Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother, Game of Thrones, True Blood, Homeland, and Downton Abbey (in no particular order of greatness).
◾Current Excitement?
My parents are in town and I get to see them in 7.5 hours!!!! 🙂
How fun!
Current Guilty Pleasure: Goldish. I love flavored Goldfish. Cupcake flavors are my favorite. I also eat ice cream nearly every night. A guilty pleasure mixture is ice cream with goldfish in it 😉
Current Blessing: My boyfriend – he’s helped me through a difficult time at my job.
Current TV Show: Felicity! Every now and then, I go through a Felicity phase and watch all of the seasons at once.

Oh I’ve been dying to read that book, everyone is recommending it to me! I just have a pile of about 8 others in my apartment that I need to get through…
I might just take this for a post of my own! My current guilty pleasure is chocolate (has always been, will always be). I honestly can’t have chocolate chips in the house unless I’m going to bake with them immediately. I’ll just eat them all.
Current Guilty Pleasure? Cupcakes always
Current Blessing? My amazing fiance
Current Favorite Show? How I met your mother- bc after thinking it was the last season this entire year, I just found out there is one more!!!
Current Excitement? It’s getting warmer out so I don’t have to wear jackets anymore!!

Current Excitement: We have our first wedding shower this weekend! My bridesmaids from my hometown are throwing us a couples shower and I am so excited to kick this wedding season off!
Big Band Theory is one of those shows I always mean to watch but never have. I know so many people love it!
Also, David and I watched a documentary on the Galapagos last night and now I’m even more envious of your amazing trip 😉
I need to scan through that playlist. I have a half this weekend and need to purge some super old songs and replace them!
I loveee the Big Bang!!! I keep going to the library in hopes of renting the DVDs, but everytime I go, they don’t have the very 1st season & I want to start from the top. Guess I’ll have to look on Amazon & maybe buy the seasons. Ps. Maxi dresses are whereeee it’s at!!!
Oh man, I’m just listening to Mindy Kalings book as an audiobook right now and it is freaking hilarious!
So i LOVE kettlecorn, but it can wreak havoc on my healthy clean diet. Soooooo, I came up with a healthy version! I usually pop my popcorn on the stove or in my air popcorn popper microwavable bowl from Target (it was 9 bucks) so I put a little coconut oil with the seeds and sprinkle enough salt and Stevia powder or Truvia in there too. It comes out sweet but no extra sugar!
Current Guilty Pleasure? Lazy Saturday nights with Netflix movies.
Current Blessing? How amazing my life is, and my healthy family!
Current Favorite Show? Mad Men, as always!
Current Excitement? Its a long weekend!!
My guilty pleasure is Diet Coke (kudos to the other addict above!). I’ve tried to quit it or drink less, but I need my one or two cans a day. Just do, and I give up trying to stop.
LOVE Big Bang and have for years. I especially am enjoying the last few seasons the most.
And my current favourite show is Once Upon A Time. Love fairy tales and fairy tale retellings. And so in love with Robert Carlyle as Rumplestiltskin. Oh, he can teach me to spin straw into gold any time. (any fans will know The Miller’s Daughter episode this year with Rose McGowan and know what I mean!)
My current guilty pleasure(s) are hot yoga and fro yo!

I loved Summerland !Let’s be real, I love anything Elin Hilderbrand 🙂 I actually downloaded the audiobook and listened to it while I trained for a half marathon!
I’m not a fan of malt balls, but since tastes change, I better not try them. I might get addicted! 😉 I’ll have to look into that book. I’m currently working on another book, but I think Mindy is hilarious – or at least her new show is.

You would love the malt balls at my local Giant. They have a layer of peanut butter in between the malt and the chocolate. TO.DIE.FOR.
