Like Pam

I recently started a new job with the FSU Career Center. It just so happens that my assigned desk is at the front of the office. I feel like this when I am there...

Life couldn't be any better! :)

Bangs,Bangs, Bangs!

Whenever I get a haircut, it always takes a little while for me to like it. I will like it in the salon when the hair stylist is around, then as the day carries on  I incessantly play with it in front of the mirror and the thought, "Why did I do this?" always pops into my head. I got bangs again this Friday and thankfully that unsure stage only lasted about a day or two. It's official now, I enjoy them a lot. 

Have you ever felt this way or have had a terrible hair cut? Share your story.

Birthday and Spring Break

This past week was my Spring Break, so Stephen and I went down to Naples (my home) to stay with my parents. We did so many lovely things and went to so many little fun places.

I found a cupcake shop in Naples called Gracie's Cupcakes and Ice Cream. Each cupcake was 50 cents more than a cake at Lucy and Leo's, but I must admit it was more tasty. My mom very much enjoyed this venture.

This week was also my 21st birthday. On the day of my birthday, Stephen and I went to Downtown Naples. The downtown area is full of fine dining, cafes, art galleries, and shopping. We didn't buy anything, but we enjoyed the beautiful weather and stopped at Adelhedidi's Organic Sweets. We only stopped in for coffee because we were planning on having lunch somewhere else after, but they had so many delicious looking sweets! Gelato, crepes, scones, muffins, and other pastries!

We also found an ADORABLE little tea room/lunch cafe called Brambles tucked away from the commotion of the main street. Again, we did not eat there because we were planning on lunch somewhere else, but we will definitely be coming back for lunch and tea the next time we are in Naples. 

All week my mother had been telling us about this chocolatier called Norman Love Confections. The Naples location isn't open yet, so we hiked a few exits down to Ft. Myers. I was amazed at how perfectly crafted these chocolates were. They didn't look like chocolate at all... they looked like colorful marbles.

We got raspberry (me), mint chocolate chip (mom), peanut butter (Sam), key lime (Stephen), and NY cheesecake (dad).

On the last day of break I met my roommate Sonja and her mother at Teavana! They had beautifully crafted tea sets and a variety of samples to try.

I left with a few ounces of Black Dragon Pearls tea. It's delicious stuff :) It will surely help me get through this week of school. Next weekend we are packing out bags and headed off to New Orleans. More adventures, crafts, and food to come! 

Ready, Set, Blog!

Here I go.  January 12, 2011.  2:15 am. 

My Blog.

[me at this very moment]

After spending some time trying to customize my page as I like, I am finally ready to let it leave the nest. My purpose for this blog? To be as dorky as possible. No...well not just that. With this blog I wish to document my crafty and life adventures as well as see what other people in the art community are accomplishing and sharing. 

What is to come? [All things blog worthy]

• recipes [of all kinds]
• knitting/crochet projects
• other craft projects
• adorable clothes
• lots and lots of images
• life's journeys ^_^

Enjoy, I know I shall.
