Oh Panera, you give me such joy in visiting you. With your selection of pastries, bagels, breads, and not to mention your delicious soups, salads, and sandwiches I feel that the possibilities are endless. And my most favorite thing…free wifi. I have so many fond memories of spending time sitting in your comfy booths catching up with my girl friends. Before I moved, you were less than 5 minutes away from me and were walking/biking distance. Now, you’re about 20 minutes away and my heart is NOT happy. When Jimmy and I move, one of the first things I shall do is find my nearest Panera Bread for my weekly fix. Thank you for always being there for me.
Always,
Jen





Anyway, things are going great! A few weeks ago Jimmy got his date to leave for basic training…November 29th! We were awaiting a call to let us know he’d be leaving any day now, but it’s nice for us to have a date and make the most of the time we have left together before we are away from each other for 8 weeks. We’re thinking of taking a mini-vacation somewhere, but not sure where yet. It’ll be nice that he will get to be here on Thanksgiving, but the thought of spending Christmas and New Years without him makes me cry a little inside, and I’ll definitely be crying on the outside when he’s gone. All I gotta say is that we better have one heck of an amazing Valentine’s Day when he comes back!!
Coming up: Disneyland pics, Palm Springs, outfits, and so forth

ode to panera. 



there is a panera near me but I only went there once. I want to go again someday.
I love Panera! I don’t know if mine has whatever drink featured in the first photo, but it looks so inviting… Whatever’s in there, I wouldn’t mind swimming in it.
Their soups are awesome, as is the bread, and the iced green tea? To die for. <3 Plus, it's fast, relatively cheap food without the McDonald's feel.
panera is my FAVORITE. i go there at least once a week for coffee & soup
it’s so cozy and delicious!!
