Rain, rain, go away.. PLEASE!

Once again, it's raining! Can someone please explain to me why the weather just wants to torture us? Thank goodness I don't have work today, not that I work outside or anything but this weather just makes me not want to leave home, period. I slept in and then decided to get up and make some pasta. I actually made the same exact pasta last night because Wednesdays are officially "Pasta Night" but I ended up packing 1/2 of it up for T* and the other 1/2 for my boyfriend. Sooo, since it was really good pasta, I decided to make it again for myself ;p

Penne ala Vodka w/ chicken (yum!)

And because I felt like I was totally wasting my gas by just baking pasta, I decided to bake some cupcakes too, lol (this is what rainy weather does to you).

Pillsbury vs. Betty Crocker
Personally, I prefer Pillsbury for cupcakes?
Betty Crocker banana cake is really good though!

Pink cupcake! Isn't it cute?

Chocolate cupcake. This was from a while back.

"Vanilla" cupcake, lol. Also from a while back.

I enjoy cooking :] I'm not great at it, but I enjoy trying new things and learning. My boyfriend is my chef, hehe. He cooks for me all the time, but recently I've been cooking so he's taking a little break and enjoying my amazing cooking skills :D

So, the 90% of the time that I don't cook, I eat out lol. As of right now I work every Mon, Weds, and Fri and usually my co-workers and I order out for lunch at some place near by. When the weather's nice, I'll usually volunteer to drive down the street to the Dunkin Donuts near by to pick up a quick brunch for everyone.

Dunkin Donuts Turkey Cheddar & Bacon Flatbread
This is what I always get. It's so good!

Dunkin Donuts Hash Browns
(They're only 99 cents when you add them onto your flatbread combo!)

Dunkin Donuts Iced Tea

That's usually my pick for a quick and easy brunch when I'm at work, but since the weather has been nasty, no one wants to go out to pick anything up so we resort to any place that delivers, lol. My office manager and my boss seem to love Quiznos. Quiznos is alright. It's nothing special to me. I'm usually a chicken person, but for some reason I wanted to try this:

Quiznos Black Angus Steak Sub w/ lettuce
I'm sticking with chicken next time ;x
And personally I hate Pepsi, but I had no choice.
Coca Cola FTW!

Ok! Enough about food, lol. I was at my boyfriend's house this past weekend and I asked him if I could take a picture of all his hats and he managed to dig up a "few".

These are all the hats that just sit in his closet everyday.
It's funny how he owns more hats than I do shoes, but he
rarely wears any of them, (sigh).

Kidrobot Death From Above
This is one of my favorite hats that he has because
it's a big smile with lots of teeth :D

My boyfriend bought himself this Supreme Duffle Bag in Royal.
I like it! I've always wanted to get myself a duffle bag, but I
never found a nice one that I really wanted.

A while back, I was at Flushing with my boyfriend and he took me to Toy Qube. He pointed at this little box on the counter and told me to buy one for him. It was only like 4-5$ so why not? It was the Kidrobot Super Mini Keychains Series 4. He opened it immediately when we got outside to find out what he got because it's a blindbox. When he opened it, he revealed to me that he had gotten the plain gray one called "Slate". Unsatisfied with what my boyfriend just got, I went back in the store determined to get another one and so I did. I came back out and I opened it and I got.. THE NINJA! :o I gave it to my boyfriend and told him he had to love them all equally, LOL. A week or so afterwards, I was at the local mall with T* and I went into the store Metropark to check out a couple of things and I saw the same little box of toys on the counter so I just HAD to buy 2. I paid and I opened my first box immediately and I got.. THE MUMMY. It must've been beginners luck, hahaha. I just got the 2 rarest ones. I opened up the second one I bought and I got the robot in a bear suit. They're so cute. And for a while, I was addicted to buying them, but I stopped :[ I really wanted the astro one too.. because it's holding a little ice cream cone.

That's all for now. I'm hoping that we'll see better weather in August so that I can go to Six Flags at least once and hit up the beach maybe one more time.
