Color!

March 28, 2008

After years of dorm and apartment living, I really embraced color when I bought my house last year. I was so tired of white, lifeless walls! So now, my front hall is brick red, my kitchen is teal, my living room is a rich, creamy latte, and my dining room is soon to be leaf [...]

Visit me in Hell- I have a reservation at Table 8

March 21, 2008

Have you ever seen the show Father Ted? Its ok if you haven’t- I only know about 2 people that have. Basically, its an Irish show about some crazy priests living on a crazy island. Its HYSTERICAL. And oh so wrong.

To the men in my life

March 20, 2008

If I’m being crabby and you suspect that I have PMS, for the love of all that is good please don’t tell me that! Trying to be subtle by bringing me chocolate and saying that I seem like I need it is no good either. And it won’t help. Just leave me alone and I’ll [...]

If I had a million dollars, I would buy you some art

March 16, 2008

I’ve been looking for months for something to hang over my couch. My living room walls are blank (save for the creamy latte colored paint I treated them to) and calling for something fabulous. I’m having trouble finding something appropriate though- everything is either too loud, not colorful enough, too “done,” or way, way too [...]

I love pink

March 16, 2008

And I love everything about this dress. I’m thinking about getting it to wear to my cousin’s wedding this Spring, but I’m not sure if it would be too much with the shoes that I want to wear… Whatdo you think- too many bows or no?

This seriously give new meaning to “playing with your food.” Amazing! Although something about blowing into a carrot look kind of dirty to me (and whoa- look at the size of some of those veggies! Its like they’re on steroids!)

These sea salt almonds caught my eye when I was at the grocery store earler.  I think they reminded me of a bar snack that I had once.  Anyway, they’re super good. I’m not normally a huge fan of almonds either, but these have a nice saltiness (but not too salty either). And there’s a [...]

My wuvs you

March 7, 2008

Behold the beauty.

I’ve loved this bag for a while- a few years at least. And every time I think she can’t possibly improve on it, she goes and proves me wrong. Its green! And purdy! I’d buy it, but I’m sure the second I do, she’ll put out some even more fabulous version of it. [...]

Just do it right, dammit!

March 6, 2008

So I recently reached a point in my career where I can -and am expected to- make other people do my work and then take most of the credit for it. It’s great! Except that I also have to take responsibility for it. I’m starting to understand why my boss used to get so mad [...]

Things I Like Right Now

March 6, 2008

I don’t know about you, but I go through random phases of liking things. I mean REALLY liking things. Things that don’t usually even warrant a second thought- we’re not talking high heels or chocolate here. Out of nowhere, I’ll become obsessed. I can’t get enough. Then one morning (usually 2-3 months later), I’ll wake [...]
