So.......these are some of my nieces and nephews and my beautiful mommy. I miss them so very dearly. They are home makinggingerbread houses and I am in Miami studying for finals. Hardly seems fair. I can't wait to see them. 10 more days!!!!!

Victoria's Secret fashion show!

This balloon train was awesome!

So last night Cristina and I watched the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show! Last year we watched the fashion show and then went to the gym immediately after (for all of 10 minutes, but hey, motivation comes in increments for us). This year we decided we like food too much to ever be on the same level of amazingness as the models. Oh well......we'll try again next year.

When binging is acceptable....

WE LOVE THANKSGIVING!!

Actually we love food in general, so loving Thanksgiving is a given.

Gabi's Thanksgiving:

I cook most of Thanksgiving dinner by myself every year....I like to think of myself as a domestic goddess. My favorite recipe this year: Sweet Potato Gnocchi! Courtesy of Everyday Italian.

Things I'm thankful for:

1) cardigans- my favorite closet staple

2)food network- thank you for constituting 98% of my tivo

3) my 2 fabulous sisters, 7 nieces and nephews, supportive parents, and the greatest friends ever

4) pumpkin scones- you light up my life in the winter.

4) last but not least, I am thankful for not having lost my apartment keys yet this month.

Just a fraction of my silly family

Cristina's Thanksgiving:

2.5 meals down.

Weight gain count: 4 pounds!

When asked what I am thankful for I said “not failing school.” Here is a more in-depth list:

-My wonderful boyfriend Kevin and our 5 month anniversary. Love him!

-My family that welcomes me home quite often when I just need my own bed and encouraging words.

-The generous folks on my school’s admissions board for pretty much paying me to go here. I will never forget you, whoever you are.

-My sweet and caring far away friends who I miss all the time.

SALUTATIONS!!

Gabi & Cristina

We are writing to you from the middle of our sophomore year at the lovely (and extremely stressful) University of Miami. Looks can be deceiving (see below). Hoping to earn degrees in Advertising, Art, and Art History and continue on to prestigious graduate programs, we welcome any interruptions from rich doctors who would like to support us for life or magicians who could turn us into Penelope Cruz and Natalie Portman. Until then, stay tuned! Follow us as we make it through, or, you know…die along the way.
