Music Tuesday


Have tickets, will rock.
Not too much happening here. It's freezing, so I am going to bed to read Harry potter.
Rock 'n' roll.

Friday dinner date


Woohoo! It's Friday! I for one, am very excited that today starts with F-R-I.
Just a short post today because I am just off to work and tonight I have a dinner date with these two charming boys. How could I resist? Just so you know, these are the beautiful twin boys who belong to a close friend of mine. And today just happens to be their 7 month birthday. So happy 7 months Ravie and Fenn! You've come a long way babies!
So happy Friday to you all. And happy weekend. And to any Harry Potter fans out there, it's just one more sleep!

Definitely smokin'!

{image from Skull Candy}

Let's face it, as much as we love our iPods, the ear buds really aren't all that. And so I stayed loyal to the apple ear buds until they finally went kaput. Since I discovered Skull Candy though, the loyalty is over and I am a groupie to a brand spanking new set of smokin buds. Noise reduction! I didn't know I could be this happy. Can't wait to test them out on an air plane when I usually have to turn my iPod up full volume just so I can hear over the engine. Oh yeah I will probably go prematurely deaf but ah well.
So do they live up to their smokin' name? Definitely!

Music Tuesday

Right now I adore this song. Not only the sickly sweet tune and lyrics that are so easy to sing along to but Gwen looks absolutely stunning in this video. Hey, but when does she look anything but stunning? It's very Marilyn Monroe-esque but somehow I think Gwen does a better job. Oh yeah I am going out on a limb here by being this vocal!
It's the hair do! I would kill to have a hair do like that rather than my 'in a rush so no time to wash the hair, scraped back in a pony tail do a la today' look.
And the eye make up. All this and she gets to be married to Mr Gavin Rossdale. I'm not usually this gushy. But sigh!

Something special!


The good mail Gods have definitely been smiling down on me because when I arrived home today my first Etsy purchase was waiting for me.
I'm so glad I made the decision to purchase these cards from Alyson because:
1. She is very talented
2. I love stationery and was not disappointed by these cards
3. The packaging was delightful
4. Alyson is a lovely blogging friend
I even got a little notepad and Alyson's favourite recipe. I adore these recipe cards Alyson, you should definitely sell these too. Thank you so much!
Now I just have to decide when to use them. I just want to keep them for myself! Check out this fab Etsy store here.
