This series of images crack me up. Elliott and his friend Jethro decided to be rock stars for a short time.

extra large for extra special ... this I love.



Death. Its name is death.




My brother thought it would be a good idea to make a coffee oreo shake. It was... in theory.
Two weeks ago he made a coffee shake and it was scrumptious. This time he added oreos and WAY more coffee. I was up with my sister in law till four in the morning. Good talk though.

Bridal Shower


I'm throwing a Bridal shower for my soon to be sister in law in about a week and a half. In my mind the planning couldn't be going any better. Everything is organized and in its place. I have everything right where I want it and no one can put things out of their place. It's wonderful!
In the tangible world you ask? yeah, I pretty much have nothing done. In my defense, and in my opinion, preparation of the mind is half the battle.

The second half of the battle is about to commence, and it will be bloody. Having a tiny budget is daunting but it can definitely be done. let me prove it to you...

During my stroll down to the flying goat for some coffee, I stopped at a thrift store and found some fabric that couldn't have matched better than it does to the theme of the shower. It is a sight to behold. Perfectly perfect, and only 2 Northern California dollars!

Oh and Question for all of you Shower throwing extraordinars: Does anyone have any good idea for shower games that are actually fun? I don't know how many showers I have been to when I thought to myself, "there is no way they're getting me to do that" , and yet somehow I find myself still sitting there with this uncomfortable smile on my face counting the minutes till I can leave..
