Happy Wednesday friends!
We all have our wishes that we hope and pray for, wishing on a lucky star, and making a wish at 11:11! I wish for things every day, doesn’t mean they are going to come true, but wishing means you have hope and wishing is something I have always done since I was little. I used to wish on stars, throw a penny in the fountain and make a wish, and make a wish to my good luck charm.
Oh wishing! Here are some wishes for today, now these are just random wishes and just for fun. Some though I really do wish and that wish involves my son! Hurricane victim wishing too!
What I Wish Wednesday
1. I wish I could say I continued my breakfast change up this week but nope. I had toast with almond butter and turkey bacon today and I had it Saturday and Sunday too.
2. I wish that my son would stop growing! Seriously, he the same height as me and maybe even an inch taller. I miss the days when he was little but I am so proud of the young man he is turning into.
3. I wish that starbucks wasn’t so good that is sucks me in every time I am near it. Yesterday I had to get dry cleaning and told myself no starbucks since it’s right near there. You can see how well that worked out.
4. I wish I never left pork out of my life, I forgot how much I loved it! I started eating pork again this past summer, I usually buy it here and there but the past 2 weeks I bought it and can’t get enough. Sorry to my vegan friends, don’t mean to offend you! We all like what we like!
5. I wish there was a cold stone ice cream closer to us! Mike and I wanted cold stone so bad this past weekend, but we didn’t feel like driving 40 minutes to get there. We might just do it this weekend, pumpkin pie in the sky is what we want!
6. I wish I could open a bag of these chips and they would last more than a week, no chance! I like the tortilla chips even plain, I am weird. I put some of those tortilla chips in leftover cheesy chicken chili, so good!
7. I wish I could have my whole wedding cake just like this every year for our anniversary. I would have a cake party too and invite friends to enjoy it with us. Oh wedding cake, I love you.
8. I wish I could write in the sky every day how much I love this man and how grateful and lucky I am to have him! I do tell him every single day or write him love notes, but I do wish I could write it in the sky just once!
9. I wish that my hair would stay in these curls every day without using my curler wand. I would save time and save burns from happening, lol.
10 . I wish I could do more than donate to help the people affected by hurricane sandy, I wish I could go out to NJ and the other hard hit places to help. I really would love to do so much more than just donate money, but I guess the money will at least help in some way. <3

Starbuck’s always gets me too. And don’t feel bad about posting meat if it’s what you eat! Even though I’m a vegetarian, I make meat for the Husband all the time. People have given me crap about it before, but whatever, it works for us!
I wish … life stays like it has been for a while – pretty damn good!
What a lovely post! Please send extra prayers to those in NY. My good friend lives on Staten Island and while her house had very minimal damage, her neighborhood was basically destroyed. I sent her a care package of batteries, flashlights and hand warmers yesterday because I felt like I needed to do MORE. She sent me a text message late last night that they’re being evacuated again. It just breaks my heart.
I wish everyone in my family stays in great health. I wish you were here for chats and laughs. I wish to finally meet a great man and I wish for everyone to be happy in life xx
Love the pretty curls! I might need to get a curler wand! I have no luck with curling irons! I can’t believe how big Anthony is!! He looks so old!
This summer I had to pass 2 Starbucks on my way to work every day, and we have 3 on our campus! I think it has a magnetic pull.
And I would come to your wedding cake party for sure! Honestly all the best pieces of cake I’ve ever had were at someone’s wedding. I too really wish I could do something for Sandy victims. For now, I just have to send prayers and connect with the projects in my community that are sending aid etc.
I wish that I could spend more time with my brother! We’ve only just started to get close, but now he lives far away! Talking to him on the phone last night made me so happy and sad all at the same time.
Have a wonderful Wednesday! I’m about to fire up the Keurig for some coffee too!
xoxo
I love your hair curly! It’s so pretty. I’ve never tried a curling wand. I want to though.
I wish that one day soon my stomach will feel completely better. I’m sick of going to doctor after doctor and going for tests.
Never feel guilty about what you eat! Most vegetarians I know are absolutely understanding about the fact that I eat meat (and I enjoy it) and would never dream of making me feel bad about that. I’m a big fan of pork too!
i agree with your wishes 10x, especially the pork. LOL! and anthony is getting so big!!
I wish there was more time in the day. I wish I could have more time at the gym and more time in the kitchen and more time just hanging out with the hubby!!
great wishes, beautiful!!! love ya so much!! today i wish that your day will be amazing and filled with so much love and happiness because you deserve it!!!! <3 xo
Your son is adorable! I wish I could buy those tortilla chips here! And I wish the sun came out today.
Thanks Lucy! I wish you could get them there too!
Okay Katie, you must.. I repeat MUST make this simple egg recipe. You whisk 2 eggs, cook them in a pan for 50 seconds, take off pan and top with Salsa & some shredded cheese.. and THEN dip those blue tortilla chips in the mix! So good
Sounds amazing!! Got to try! I just love those damn chips!
Girl, me too!! If you have the beanfields nacho bean & rice chips, they are pretty tasty with it too
I would wish you three more wishes!!
Honestly, I would wish myself to stop sacrificing sleep for whatever activity I’m doing that prevents it. I know that this is completely my decision/fault/choice and totally preventable, but I really need to focus on getting to bed at a decent time and letting myself sleep in a bit more. The world will continue to go on without me. I just hate missing out on life!!
hahah I love that you wish your son would stop growing! I feel the same about my little brother and sister. They’re a lot younger than me (everyone thinks we are half siblings, but nope) and they BOTH got way taller than me this past year. Too funny because I’m the oldest in the family and now I’m also the smallest (and this includes my little cousins too… everyone is passing me up!)
I love all of these! Starbucks just has that affect on people! We have a starbucks right next to my work and it is so dangerous! Sometimes it makes me even forget that there is a cheaper option right up the street{DD} even though I know its not the same! Sometimes starbucks 5 days a week just isn’t feasible!
I wish that I could jump through the screen and give you the biggest hug ever – because I miss your smiling face!
Awwww! LOVE YA girl!!! <3
Oh starbucks, I wish I knew how to quit you!
Haha! It’s like a bad romance!
Anthony is such a little cutie
And Starbucks totally sucks me in too! It’s a habit I have got to work on 
Beautiful way to start the day is always with the healthydiva! Great post this morning!
Thanks Gayle! Beautiful start to my day is reading comments from readers like you!
awww you’re so awesome Katie
I sure could wish some good luck lol been applying to jobs lately and am waiting to hear back.. I really need a full time job, no more part time lol
I am sending you LOTS of good luck and good karma girl! I hope you get one soon! <3
I am the same way when it comes to meals. Once I am on a new food kick, I eat it everyday until I am burned out.
Have an amazing day
I know, sometimes it takes a LONG time for me to get burnt out too, lol.
Hope you had a wonderful day!
Why do I always forget to make a wish at 11:11? Need to remind myself! Do you do so every day at 11:11 or just once a week? Might be such a stupid question, sorry …
I like how your wishes are a mix of contemplative, funny and loving ones. Number 8 is my favourite.
I wish I could see my mum more often. Two more weeks until I’ll finally be able to visit my parents again!
Not stupid at ALL! Every time I happen to see it is 11:11 I do make a wish! Some days I don’t happen to look at the clock when it is!
Oh I bet that is hard, but cherish the time you do get to see your family!
Oh, I just made mexican pulled pork (adobo seasoning, adobos in chipolte sauce, garlic and broth-add to crock for 8hrs on low) and have soo much pork to eat (this is what happens when you buy at Costco!)
I wish I enjoyed the colder months more! Although we started snowshoeing about 5 years ago (love it and that is what I look forward to) I am just always cold and cannot warm up!
My boys would love that! Sounds so good!
I can never warm up either! I need heat insulated clothes!
Great post! Love it! I wish I could meet and spend time with some of my favourite bloggers such as yourself!
I agree! I wish too!
Ha ha. I always wish my hair was naturally perfectly curled, but sadly I think I will have to suffer from the burns for now;) I wish I could help out more in the suffering places as well, it’s such a tragedy and so sad. I heard another storm is on it’s way as well. And just pray it doesn’t hit as hard as Sandy did. Yep, Starbucks suck me in everyday. As if you didn’t know that;)
I wish the world wasn’t so full of hate.
they grow up so fast don’t they!!
and yes i am a sucker for starbucks as well. their passionfruit tea just calls me name a little too often!
have a great week doll <3
I wish i could spend more time with my mum. we live in the same house but with my work, study & trying to keep up my gym time i seem to hardly see her. I wish i could let go of the gym a little in some ways.
The curly hair looks very pretty
xx
I’ll tell you what I wish after today…for the election to go away! I mean, wow. Today was worse than after the debates. I’m politically savvy, moderately conservative which doesn’t help, but geez! People seemed to lose it today. I just wish we’d all get along, or at least, agree that we disagree. I feel like tomorrow will be better, but wow. Anyway, Anthony is adorable! He reminds of my younger brother, in that, I feel like I blinked and he was taller than me. I never bullied him, but it was weird when I suddenly had to look up to him, even though my moves dictated his. I was 6 inches shorter, but he still followed my lead and went to the same college (Clemson, go Tigers!). And I go through cereal like you go through chips…I’m done with a box of TJ’s Os in like 4 days. I flat iron my hair like you curl yours. I would give the world for permanent straight hair…the grass is always greener…I don’t need any extra prayers myself, but I’m sending them to the northeast. Those poor folks can’t get a break. Hopefully, this new storm comes and goes quickly and they can recover fast. That’s where the prayers go! Have a great week! =)
I wish I wasn’t so TIRED today LOL! I think it’s all this cold weather makes me sleepy and just want to curl in bed
. I also wish I could do more help for the people affected by Sandy. I donated to the Red Cross & will continue to do that. I wish I wasn’t so sore today from a workout Tuesday but am thankful I am able to work out and enjoy it
