La Vida Luker

I want my blog to be awesome. Too bad I feel like I’m not awesome enough to post fun, interesting and creative posts, filled with funny words or pretty pictures. Hubs & I live with his parents, with practically a whole house stuffed into a tiny bedroom fit for a super skinny teenager. Trust me, nobody wants to see that. I don’t travel much. I really don’t have a fashionable style.. I’m mostly a jeans and t-shirt kind of gal. Headbands, big flowers, and vests are my loves. I only like iced coffee. I’ve just discovered how delicious frozen yogurt is. I wish my other ride was the Tardis. Living la vida Luker is definitely NOT Living la vida loca… in sum, I’m pretty lame, but I guess I could be the most awesome boring person ever! ;)

Big Glasses.

Pink Hair.

Green Apple Caramel Smoothie ♥

Soo I stopped the 30 days of me challenge. Most of the things I didn’t care to post about. I want to try to build this blog using my own posts, to start off with. I just want to BLOG. I had some photos I wanted to share, but of course I can’t find my memory card. Story of my life!

I’m so glad it’s Wednesday. I’m that much closer to the weekend! And I’m excited for this weekend, because it’s Fall for Greenville! Its an exciting little event that showcases some of the yummiest foods you can get at local restaurants, as well as display awesome stuff from local shops. We went last year, but didn’t stay long because it was crowded (we went too late). This year we’re going first thing Saturday morning, well-rested and with empty bellies — the best way to enjoy Fall for Greenville!

I’m off to go enjoy a hot cup of tea before bedtime. I can’t think of a better way to end the evening by sipping some Sleepytime Vanilla tea and watching Doctor Who with the hubs!

… I’m too lazy to do this post. ;P

If you know me, you know that I don’t cook often. That’s mostly because I don’t have my own kitchen. And that’s because we don’t have our own place. I don’t like dirtying up a kitchen that isn’t mine. If I have to cook, it has to be simple. The answer to my kitchen woes: Pinterest. Without it, I would not have found so many simple and delicious crockpot recipes. I love using a slow cooker. I’ve used one alot over the past couple of weeks, and I’m proud of how yummy the meals turned out! Fix it and forget it for sure!

I’m ashamed to say it, but I’m a quitter when it comes to setting goals, particularly new year’s resolutions… haha. Since I’ve got married, I’ve wanted to lose some weight. All I’ve done is gained, which supposedly is “normal” for newly weds. So, my goal is to at least lose 5 pounds by the end of next month. I’m wanting to kick start my weightloss, because my long term goal is to lose 40lbs before our Disney Cruise in May. That’s motivation for sure!

Another short term goal I have is to blog more, which is why I’m doing the #30daysofme challenge. I’m trying to get in the habit of blogging regularly, not necessarily every day. I think I’m doing an okay job so far. The next thing I need to do is find some blog friends and sign up to be a sponsor somewhere :)
