Morning Linkage: Cup 20

Good morning stylish sweets!!

Yeeeea ummm about the lack of posts this week……things have been hectic!  I’ve had meetings and appointments almost everyday!  The most important one took place on Thursday, lunch and shopping with my Mom aka MomO!  I’m her only child and she’s my only mom so we just have to take advantage of these days. Speaking of days, it’s November HELLO!  Where is 2012?!  Can I get a couple months back just relive a few moments?  Loving the fall temps but definitely not looking forward to the winter and its’ single digits.

While I’m thinking of weather…hope all my east coast readers and followers are doing ok. I checked on a few that are on twitter…Sandy really did a number to the coast!  I’m in Michigan and we even got a piece of what she had to offer: 30mph, 50mph and 75mph winds!  YES!  Living on the top floor of a building didn’t make it any more fun.  But my thoughts and warm heart definitely goes out you guys that were in the direct line of the hurricane.

Wasn’t too sure about what to post after typing all of that…you guys know I ramble lol so I’ll just give you your morning links for your coffee! 😉

Morning Linkage: Cup 19

Welcome to Friday, stylish sweets!!

This week felt like it went by fast!  Like super fast!  I’m gauging this on the fact that I have entirely too much to do next week and it all begins in just a couple days.  Not looking forward to that at all!  This may be sort of a heads up (next week posts could be few and far between…sorry in advance) Don’t fret…trust me, I love doing this so nothing will really keep me away.

Think I’m starting to ramble…yea, definitely rambling!  Here’s your morning scoops of linkage!

Morning Linkage: Cup 12 (Breast Cancer Awareness)

 

 

I’ve been torn with whether or not I want to share a story.  It’s a personal story and it relates to this month.  An emotional time for as long as I can remember…October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  Trust me, I’d love to do nothing more than share with you guys/gals but I’m not sure I can handle it emotionally…even now typing this small and short paragraph is proving to be difficult.

Here goes…

My best friend, my grandmother passed away at the age of 72 (three years ago) was first diagnosed with breast cancer when I was only 8.

I did manage to get that sentence without the tears so thank you for bearing with me.

With my other blogs in the past, during October, I devoted making links and posts everyday that had at least ONE thing mentioning Breast Cancer Awareness.  As the month continues on, I will try my best to keep up the positive vibes.

With that said, um, written, wait, typed….ready for your morning linkage?

That’s it for today!

Enjoy your Monday stylish sweets and WELCOME TO OCTOBER!

 

Morning Linkage: Cup 11 (National Coffee Day)

Captains Log:  Today is Saturday, the 29th day of September in year 2012.  It is also known as National Coffee Day.

A sci-fi reference on a beauty/fashion/lifestyle blog about curvy things…that’s gotta NOT be a first!  Maybe a first for Curves and Coffee but it also might be the last.  If I didn’t lose you and you’re still here reading after only four sentences or so…thank you LOL!

Back to the topic of warm roasted coffee beans…

National Coffee Day?  What? I’m obligated to fill my belly with medium and dark roast all the live long day!  This also means I’m tempted to drive around to every coffee place and get whatever free cup they’re offering!  Well, not really seeing as though the price of gasoline is still very close to $4.00 around these northern parts and well, mama likes to shop!

This should also be constituted as Morning Linkage since I’m going to fill you in on a lil Saturday java goodness!

Can you believe Starbucks isn’t having anything?! Craziness!

You might wanna head on over to Twitter and follow Dunkin…

In case you’re wondering, yes, yes I did get hungry and thirsty while typing up this post!  I also want more caffeine so I fought with my better judgement and drank a soda (pop as we say) Believe me, coffee will be had by all in just a few hours!

Google for all things coffee!

    

Enjoy your Saturday sweets!
