Sooo cool!




I have always wanted pendant lights hanging over my kitchen island, but I didn't want to pay an electrician to come over and make the switch. Now I don't have to! I had no idea this product was sold at my local Lowe's and Costco! Its called an Instant Pendant and all you have to do is screw it into your existing recessed lighting like a light bulb!




How fun is this?


I wonder if it really works! My kids would love this little faucet gadget that turns the water colors with light! You can find it here along with a bunch of other really fun stuff!

Showering in the Dark


Let's face it,

I am a creature of HABIT!

I park in relatively the same spot at Target

and at the grocery store

and ANYWHERE I go more than 2 times a year!

OCD? No...it just makes life easier...one less thing

I have to think about....

since my brain has had some sort of a slow leak....

ever since I had children.

Tonight I went walking

In the 107 degree weather (yes, at night)

and as I walked into the shower I realized

I FORGOT TO TURN ON THE LIGHTS!

But I tamed the Creature of Habit inside that went for the light switch.

Instead....I showered in the dark.

There was a faint glow of light coming from the bedroom,

so it wasn't pitch black.

But it got me thinking to how much richer my life would be if I showered in the dark more often.

The ALMOST $12 plastic surgery




So I am dejunking today. And I have no idea if anyone looks at this blog anymore since I took a break from photography...but I thought I would post this for my mom, if no one else is out there. A week ago I bought this.
It was going to be what I THOUGHT would add up to my $12 plastic surgery. I thought I could actually go from barely an A to a size C with these fakies. I thought it would be fun to add a bit of a boost to my chest...and for $12 I couldn't go wrong. Well, Unfortunately the packaging and discription was misleading. Either that or I was so excited about the price of my new upgraded chest that I misread. Turns out you actually need to be a size C to use this. Silly me! Its actually a bra that you just stick on....no straps involved. Silly me, I thought they were some kind of fakies! Next time you go to Goodwill and see these for sale...you will know who donated them!
I HAVE NO IDEA WHY THERE IS THIS BIG SPACE BELOW THIS ENTRY!

Easy Birthday Cake Solution







Here is an easy birthday cake solution. My son turned 4, and is at the age where everything needs to be fair and the same. I can never seem to cut cake pieces exactly the same. Quick and easy solution. I made 2 batches of cupcakes, placed them next to one another in a pan, frosted them as one, decorated...and voila! Each child got their own cupcake and dinosaur on top and they were all EXACTLY the same size!



new oreo delish!




Okay, soooooo I haven't been posting photos...I know. So I thought I would change it up a bit and just post stuff that I find that I like or that is inspiring or funny or very cool.


If you haven't tried these...run....not walk...run to the OREO isle and buy some. They are DELISH!
