When we were in the mountains about a month ago with some of our friends, my gal pal Lisa made this recipe for Blueberry French Toast Casserole for breakfast one morning.  It was so amazing, and I've been looking forward to making it again.  Let's be honest though, when you put cream cheese, and bread, and blueberries all together....what's not to love?! One thing that I … [Read more...]

I got this in an email from my mom.  Yes...it's pretty awful....but it's also really, really funny... It's that awkward moment..... Seriously....how awful....who's the streaker?!  No wonder the guy in the background is smiling so big....there's a naked girl standing in front of him at the office Christmas party.... No.... Wait.... Is that?.... Oh my words.... Yes it … [Read more...]

It's 4:25 in the morning and I'm sorry to say that I've been wide awake for the past 2 hours.  It's the kind of awake where I know I'm so tired now that I have that sick feeling in the back of my throat...the headache starting somewhere behind my eyelids....but nothing.  Sleep will not come. First I woke up to pee at 2:20am.  That's how it usually starts you know...these … [Read more...]

You're totally all going to be singing Cher the rest of the day! HA!  You can thank me later! :-) I am absolutely giddy right now.  A great place to be...giddy!  Here's why I'm giddy.... Yes friends...they're here!  The Yesterville pictures that my unbelievably talented friend and photographer, Kim Deloach, took of my family to give you a taste of what you can expect for … [Read more...]

I had a weird dream on Saturday night.  And I woke up in the middle of the night thinking for some reason that I needed to remember it.  So I sat up, went back over the dream in my head and then went back to sleep. This was the dream: I was sitting in a group of people in someone's living room.  A community group of sorts.  And it seemed that the topics at hand were about … [Read more...]

I want to cuss right now.  I just wrote this entire post to share the reveal of the surprise nursery with you and somehow deleted it...in perfect time for auto-save to save my deleted mess.  I'm not computer savvy enough to know how to fix that.  Drat! I've been busting my tail to get a million things done today and just flat have not had a chance to get this posted.  I led … [Read more...]

Today is the day ya'll!  Or rather, tonight is the night I guess.  The night where I go to my sweet friend's house and install a nursery for a baby she's having whose gender has remained unknown...to everyone except myself and the ultrasound tech.  Seriously...what a privilege is that?! I've decorated lots of nurseries before.  Remember where I showed you a few HERE?  And I … [Read more...]

WOW am I tired. Seriously, like the kind of tired where I almost wore my sunglasses INSIDE of Wal-mart today.  And... I think wearing sunglasses inside is almost like wearing sunglasses at night.  Maybe even worse! See, I spent from Thursday through yesterday evening surrounded by a group of some of the most amazing women I'd ever met at The Relevant Conference in Harrisburg, … [Read more...]

Oh friends, do I have a treat for you today!  This girl...seriously, YOU WILL LOVE!  I'm a natural networker, so when I realized my old boarding school (yes...I went to boarding school) buddy, Darden, was married to a for real professional make-up artist who once upon a million years ago I actually met...I totally set out to meet her again.  First I looked up her shop, Luxe … [Read more...]

I LOVE the movie "How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days."  Love it!  And sometimes when I'm accessorizing, I think that perhaps I'm "frosting myself."  You know...adding the icing on the cake.  Because honestly...what is cake without icing?!  Personally, I could eat a vat of just the icing most of the time with a tiny bit of cake.  In fact, my friend KB's hubs does eat his cake that … [Read more...]

I must interrupt this regularly scheduled Fashion Week to tell you all that on Thursday...yes, 2 days from now...I leave for a long weekend away with a ton of girlfriends I've never met in real life before. I'm heading to the Relevant '11 Blogging Conference and I am so incredibly excited!  My sister told me it's weird...she thinks blogging is weird though.  I guess I did too … [Read more...]
