I have ever told you some of my favorites. No,,,,well here ya go (slow news night)

Favorite movies
1. Big Lebowski (no more needs to be said-best.movie.ever.)
2. Any Beach Blanket Bingo movie. How can you not love Frankie and Annette?
3. Creature from the Black Lagoon. Universal monsters are the best.

1. The office (both versions)
2. The Simpsons
3. Flight of the Conchords

Guilty pleasures
1. America's funniest videos. I love the ones with cute puppies and kittens
2. Bad 80's hairbands. Since I lived through it I can actually enjoy them for the camp value
3. Suntanning. Yes, I know it's bad for you, I know it will make me look old but there is something so "Coco Chanel" about laying out by the pool, sipping a drink, listening to music.

Favorite foods
1. Sushi
2. cupcakes
3. potato chips (I'm so healthy)

Favorite people in the world
1. Mark
2. my dogs

Relaxing on a summer night

It was such a wonderful summer night. The weather is perfect (nice 75-80) and we sat outside on the back porch playing with the puppers. Lola and Jujube were playing ball and Kato sat by Mark and just chilled. Mark made us some yummy drinks and we sat and watched the birds and Koi. I love my husband, my backyard,my puppies. My life is really great.


Tomorrow I get to see Angie and Amy for Angie's shower. I can't wait to hang with my friends.

Dinner date

Mark had a party to play at tonight so I made dinner. I can't believe I actually cooked. I made stuff salmon, aspargus, bread with mango sorbet for dessert. I decided to make it a romantic dinner and
 have it outside in our back yard. I had wonderful french music going, candles and a nice breeze. Wonderful wine and conversation.


Proof that I can cook (yes, the apron proves it) and the dinner table before we ate.

Featured Project on Craftster!

I'm a featured project on Craftster! YES! That was one of my goals! The pillowcases I made for AlwaysInspired got picked. I am SOOOOOO happy and proud! Yippee!

Let's see, what else is going on. I got more work done on my tattoo but I am still waiting for the redness to go down before posting another picture.

I had Mark take this picture today of a flowering plant we have in our front yard. I am 5 feet 4 inches and this plant is a good foot taller than me. It's crazy!



Mark and I went out to lunch today. I don't think he wanted his picture taken. My OMP!

Mod Squad meetup 2008

In June a bunch of us mods from Craftster got together for our annual get together. This year we met up in Boston and Leah and her husband David were the best hosts ever! They wore us out. As a surprise we gave sweets4ever and Mr. Sweets4ever a babyshower. It was so much fun. My wonderful friends also surprised me with a wonderful birthday party. Here are just a few pictures from the trip. I can't wait till next year to see my friends again. I miss them so much. (Missing from the group shot is Rackycoo and Emilyflew. They met up with us later that day. I need another group shot with them.



We saw so many amazing things. The Kowloon is a Tiki bar in the middle of nowhere. It was so random.


This is a liquor store we saw in Salem. It cracked me up.


Last but not least, OMP and me in the airport with Little Amy having some sushi.
