like glue, baby

so it is emily's bday week....kinda a big deal...and being as i spend every current day with this hot thing i decided to make her a birthday cake...i had no idea ....after several hours in the kitchen two runs to the grocery store to replace ingredients i had offended (which by the way nothing is more exciting then getting hit on late at night with no makeup, reckless hair and flour and suger covering my whole self)...and two attempts at the ganache frosting...ta-da (but read that how gob says it when he get out of prison by getting shanked)

i actually really enjoyed it...and it was yummy...and probably not that hard so go ahead and try it...recipe here...just dont tell me how easy it was

sometimes, alot of the time...

dating me can look like this (hair subject to change)

maybe something i should keep to myself till someones stuck but when do i ever make that choice...must be well fed and hydrated for a successful relationship...mostly fed

.
i was cleaning out my memory cards and found this and starting laughing...i remember this day and remember having this picture taken and laughing when we saw it and hearing what a familiar face this was...cute earring though huh.

.
i have a ton of catching up to do in here...i have been having adventures and fun things happening but am never updating on here...mostly just beach pools sun and exersize, babies, babysitting, preparing nurseries and hiking and cooking...yup,i said cooking. with a small side of job hunting...this weekend i am head limo bound (first limo ever and such a dream) with a fun group of girls to l.a. to see the play dream girls for emily's girl portion of her birthday extravaganza...which is many a post of its own... i cant wait and promise to start updating on here...pinky swear

.

and in my own defense that face is usually followed by this one to make up for it....

so lets call it even

i will eat your babies

anouncement*:
i hiked six miles to top of the world yesterday(and it is not an easy one...even the girl at the running shoe store was impressed...ya i go to running shoe stores)
and ran 5 miles...and did not make emily slow down one time...or stop...and did it my best pace ever...it always helps to have st patrick day celebraters riding their bikes next to you telling you how hot it is that your running and how dedicated you are...and new shoes help especially when i'd been using shoes not even intended to walk long distances...and nothing like a rock of love wannabe to light a fire and get me a-runnin...fast

if you feel like you dont even know me anymore when you read this...it's ok...i don't either ...(but if i get toned and hot and tan who cares about myself awareness...get real)

*i have been forming a habit of "anouncing" things that may or may not be necassary to deem anouncements...but this is a real one

dirty pop

real busy weekend...among which we went to galcos...over 500 different kinds of saoda...cool and worth the trip...the owners parents started it....

i left with juices and water...sorry carbonation...that's a no-go..ouch
(also meet emily...she may look nice....but she will kick your butt working out....and then drag it to hot yoga where you will die a very sweaty death)

then i passed my last test and am now an official esthetician...woop! so brynn and i met up and hit the antique mall and farmers market....and dreamt of other countries....

i claim temporary

i have all sorts of uppers to post
but right now im overtired


and i only just figured out i am grumpy cuz i have been googling and blog stalking and looking at visual lovelies hoping to get inspired...however they are just hurting

and now i am real grossed out, and severely self underwhelmed and covetous...as soon as i go to bed i will be fine but im like a two year old who is overtired and refuses to believe sleep will fix it ...and that instead i should blog it? of all the things i have been doing this is what i blog?
don't worry i get the same way when i am hungry...but wayyy more kamikaze
but lots of good things to post....if i was a morning person i would do it all before you got up..
add it to the list


in order to fix this (don't you dare say go to bed) i need a: 1.good book...2. shopping****...
3. nicole time..preferably all combined...oh and probably a job
.
don't comment on this...you will only encourage it
.
****if i don't buy this ring i will die...like set myself on fire and jump off a cliff...i need it or i will literally stop breathing and my organs will fall out of my body and my skin turn into ash and my lungs fill with molten lava(just before they fall out)....and this reaction has nothing to do with needing sleep and i will not go to bed and no i did not exersize today
.
in other news a boy recently told me he couldn't picture me getting mad...
oh boy oh boy...

he said it not me

a question that sometimes drives me hazy: am i or the others crazy

i dare you

my valentines weekend was spent mostly poolside...my presidents day was spent alongside niccole soaking up rays at the beach...sorry, snow storms? never heard of 'em....

*hint* all my friends should come visit me...if for no other reason than you can get a tan

come on pretty mama

as i swim and swim...i picture that i am here

(but not with my eyes closed...i hit my head and learned that lesson ...hard)...and that my body will look like just like that, if i just keep going....sorry i know i get obsessed with things and talk about them way to much, but kirby and i are gonna start training for a mini triathalon so it is probably not going to stop...

can u tell i miss the beach...it's in my blood...this rain is no good

favorite terrarium picture find of the day....
can't stop thinking-dreaming tiedye....always love finding a new way to do something and love it....i still love julies handmade upside down peace tiedye tank tops she made us...and the fact she thought that was how the sign went cuz thats the way your fingers go up when you make the peace sign...i am on a craft frenzy...can't stop. won't stop...
