Wow….the WordPress app is reason enough to buy the iphone itself! So good for situations when I’m not around my laptop and the photo quality is pretty darn good. Check out this photo I took with my phone on the plane!

That, my friends, would be heaven on earth in the form of a jambon gruyere croissant from Tartine (aka ham and cheese croissant). Seriously, the last ham and cheese croissant that I had was in Paris, three years ago, and this might have even rivaled that. I felt a bit gluttonous enjoying my HUGE flaky, buttery, cheesy pastry on the plane while others hoarded their pretzels but hey…a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do. I actually left a wee bit of this…I just couldn’t finish it….it was so rich. But so good. I probably won’t have another for a few years now but I’m glad I got it out of my system 😉
My flight to Texas was pretty uneventful other than the spontaneous Photo Booth shoot (no one was sitting next to me to observe my goofiness. darn). I wrote, I read, I ate buttery croissants.

How cool! I’m actually going on a ski trip with some friends to Tahoe in a few weeks and I can’t wait to see BIG mountains!
Onward home!

    Your picture of snow from above reminds me of a funny story. I had to fly to Boston one winter, and flew over some frozen bodies of water. As a Floridian, I could not figure out why the water looked so cloudy and determined that they must be polluted! Silly me 🙂

    Okay I have an iphone too but how on earth did you take a picture of yourself holding that book? Did you have someone take it for you?
    Tahoe is awesome and absolutely breathtaking. I assume based on your driving distance you’re hitting North Shore perhaps NorthStar? Gorgeous. If you end up at Sierra at Tahoe be sure to order a Margarita in the West Bowl. Outstanding.

    Tahoe is wonderful and there is a lot of snow and it keeps on snowing. It rarely gets too cold, We came back just a couple of days ago and can’t wait to go back, even if only for half a day of skiing.
    Now I want an iPhone!

    Was SO impressed w/photos/blog in air posted on FB page. Skiing in Tahoe on TOP of the Tartine sandwich pix—you really know how to hurt a girl huddled over a hot laptop getting out a grant proposal. lol. Tahoe=Serious beauty and fun.

    BTW I wanted to ck out why Reese Witherspoon was trending on Google so, went to Google news. Check the first blog listed and a photo, except for the longer hair, looks like you, Jenna! Hmm. Maybe I need to do a switched at birth post on my blog. Anything for traffic. Bad, blogger, bad, bad, bad.

    Definitely a cool post – I’m sure the other passengers were quite curious since you were photographing your sandwich (not something you see everyday! haha.) Such cute pictures…Okay, but I have to ask – How in the world do you stay so skinny with the amazing food you eat? (must be all those hours of power yoga!!) Have fun and enjoy yourself!!

    Hi Jenna! I love the Lululemon hoodie! I actually went to a lululemon store for the first time last week and LOVED everything in there! So expensive, but quality and super comfy. I ended up leaving with a pair of cropped running spandex pants…but tried on multiple hoodies that I wanted! I’m sure it kept you super comfy on your trip.

    P.s. I’m a vegetarian but that ham & cheese on a croissant looks AMAZING. I may consider having a nibble if it were starring me straight in the eye 😉

    Have fun visiting your parents and enjoy Florida!
