I'm a little sleepy today...it was a loooong night last night! My sister, Lauren, and I drove 2 hours to meet The Pioneer Woman (Ree Drummond) and have her sign our new cookbooks. Lauren is a HUGE PW fan and I have also really loved her blog, cookbooks, and Food Network show. She just seems so real--personally and in her recipes.
So we waited about 2 1/2 hours before it was our turn to meet Ree (and there were a TON of people still in line behind us!) and she was absolutely lovely! I had worn my "Pioneer Woman" peasant top in her honor (she tends to favor peasant tops in her photos and show episodes)...I mean, c'mon, if I'm going to have a blog called "Stylish in the Stacks," I have to represent when I meet someone! Here's what my outfit looked like:
And when I met her, the first thing she said was "Oh your outfit is so cute!" Yeah, I was super excited to say the least! She was completely genuine and humble and I might have told her that she was adorable--yep. I said that.
We met her daughters, Alex, and Paige, too--here's a photo of Lauren with them. Lauren is 5'7" and look how short she looks! Those girls could be models--tall, thin, and super sweet.

And here I am with Ree:
A fun way to start my Thanksgiving week! See you tomorrow for some makeup inspiration!
