iphoto & the buck.

um, i love iphoto.
i don't know why people have it other than to make funny photos?
it's kind of silly, but so fun when you are bored and want to send people funny emails.


i wish i wasn't addicted to starbucks.
next time you go get a:
grande iced non fat carmel macchiato upside down.
it will change your life.
you are very welcome.


it was 91 degrees yesterday.
i love summer dresses.
speaking of summer dresses, i just got one from guilt
i got it for $12 and it was originally $82.
what a deal!
(i told you i was obsessed)

oh and in case you were wondering my new favorite Mexican place is called panchos.
it's in manhattan beach.
you should definitely try it.
i did last night.
it's just delicious.

dream a little dream.

one of my favorite kiddie blogs - modern kiddo posted this.
this is seriously just so stinkin cute. and creative.
major props to mommy Adele.

while baby Mila is sleeping Adele sets a "scene" around her child.

aren't these just the cutest?
when i have children (someday) i will be doing this.
you may even get this in your mail for valentines day and my baby will be playing the part of cupid?
just an idea.
(too soon? hey, a girl can dream)

I'M GUILTY.

Lately I have been browsing “guilt group” more than normal.

i just love finding treasures that are 75% off the normal price!!

I’ve decided I totally deserve something cute.

I mean, why not?

So I purchased the above (simple, yet cute) items.

if you aren't a member and would like to be (you need to be invited) please let me know and i will send you an invite!

so worth it.

***Update on my funny grandmother: My mom told me last night that Maw Maw called her to chat and she told my mom that I had called to say hi. The following night she called my mom and asked my mom the same question "did i tell you Jen called me"

I cannot make this up. Ask my mom, it’s just too funny.
