I was going to write something wonderful

and then I got distracted... by an invite...which I accepted..and ended up in this...



So instead of talking about my trip to Maine I'll talk about pointless things:


Like the friendly residents in my yard:










AND THIS AWESOME WOWCH SHIRT FROM THE SPRING 09 COLLECTION. A MUST HAVE:




It's past my bedtime maybe next post will have something worth reading, but it probably won't!

:)

TUT TUT

This rain sucks, killing my hair, and spirit. Life is hard. Going to Maine this week, I'm swimming rain or shine, try and stop me.
I will be staying at Ocean Point right outside Boothbay Harbor.


Hopefully we make a stop in Freeport so I can hit up LL Bean. Maybe I will climb the rock wall.


Happy Fathers day Dennis! I made him this piece of art (Sunglasses added by me):



I bought this game today:

Super Mario Bros for NES was my favorite as a kid...okay well Super Mario 3 is number 1, but I'm into anything featuring Mario cause I think every game with him has a pretty neat vibe to it. With the exception of Warioland. I played that game all the time on my gold gameboy pocket, but it was too dark for my liking. So back to this game, I'm currently only in World 3. The parallels between this DS game and the original SMB's game for nes are quite obvious, but there are also some fun new things, like Mario turning into a giant destroying everything- sounds awesome, but use wisely at times this will work against you. I suggest it for the battle in the castle for a quick and easy defeat. One thing that I find really cool is that as some may or may not know is that the DS has two screens and most of the game play is on the top screen, while the bottom touch screen initiates powers and control over navigating from world to world. However when Mario goes down a tube bringing him down to the underworld the game switches to the bottom screen. I find this to be a cute little detail that makes this game that much cooler.

More details to come as I figure things out. I am a little late to this DS party, plz forgive me.

AJ and I went to a wedding last night (it was a blast! We are A+ dancers), I'm listening to ALK 3, had to do this.



Hang in there with this weather this weekend looks clear as of now. Saturday will be 87 and sunny, it's my pick of the week- start planning your day.

If anyone has time watch this Sigur Ros video, if not for the song for the video itself

One week till I'm 21

Well life has been exciting lately.

I tried to make Chocolate-Swirl Gingerbread with a recipe I found on Martha Stewart's website.




I must say it was edible, and okay, but super dense. Way too much molasses I think. My mom said it seemed more like a "hermit cake" My boyfriend and his roommate said anything beats vegan baked goods. Was that a backhanded compliment!? HMM.

SO maybe next time I will try a different recipe, thanks for failing me Martha.



I saw UP, it ruled. Everything about it was so cool. Nothing annoyed me, I wasn't counting down the minutes left till the end, and I think it might be the best movie I will see in 2009.

This is Doug He is a talking dog in the movie. He is so lovable much like all the other characters, except the evil explorer! OPPS hope i didn't ruin it for anyone.

Anyways, I was lazy tonight and decided to bake cupcakes from a mix. Yellow cake with chocolate frosting, my personal favorite.


Yes, those are Carebear themed cups!


Cool colored sprinkles!




Let's see, this week I can't stop listening to (As if anyone cares):

Bon Iver
Lemuria- The First Collection
Counting Crows
Letters to Cleo- GO!
and Sigur Ros
