This Little Thing Called Pinterest.

Pinterest has to be one of the
greatest inventions, ever!
I often find myself thinking,
"man, today has been stressful,
I've got to go Pinterest some of it off"
Ha! Crazy girl.

Anywho, I decided to
bring a few of my favorite finds so far
this week, or 'must tries', for your viewing pleasure.


[1] this print sums up my mood perfectly right now.


[2] this hair tutorial is a must try for when summer nights + straightening
do not mix.


[3] honey-lime tilapia. 'nuff said.


[4] i may or may not gaze longingly into this picture.
have they not invented teleportation yet?




Follow me on Pinterest here!






Good Food, Good Pottery.

So I'm on the last leg of my
spring break trip (that was over a month ago)
-whew!
We stayed local, in Statesboro, where
there is my favorite sub shop, Larry's,
and then we decided to hit up a pottery shop
and it was a blasty-blast!




This may look like 'just a sammich' to y'all, but
no. I dream about Larry's, it's that ridiculous.








And that would be my plate :)

A wonderful day, followed by a (not so 3D)
showing of The Lorax.

And that would be spring break 2012!
I'll try to tone it down with the pictures next time......

Fuel for the Week.

I'll admit, since Thursday was my birthday, I
skipped class on Thursday (and requested off work for the week).
So this Monday I'm a little bitter!
Can we make this day a little better?


The Head and the Heart - Lost in my Mind





Handbags happen to be one of my weeknesses.
And FYI there is a handbags.com
So.....problem solved! Like this satchel,
that also comes in a variety of colors.


Large bags like the one first listed are nice, but
 I do find myself moving towards smaller options
these days. And this colorful wristlet from 
Ann Taylor seems perfect!


Los Poblanos is an organic farm/inn a few miles
from Albuquerque that has a multitude of goodies
such as soaps, lotions, and solves. Plus, the adorable packaging
was the first thing I bought.



The prints from Black Baroque fits my style perfectly.
All whimsy, color, and antique mixed into one fine print.


Have a lovely day!

St. Simons Island.

Alright. So our next stop is to St. Simons Island.
This island is where I spent most of my childhood
because it is a little more developed than Jekyll Island.
We had to make a trip to the pier, to see the new shops
and well, the pier.
I'll have you know this is where my sister met her husband.
Yep.








Oh let me just say this: I hate spicy food.
I was just so happy to be with family that I ordered
something called the 'bang bang shrimp'
ok kids, don't ever order something just because it has a cool name.

An Old House.

Mmmmmkay.
So our last spot on Jekyll Island has
come to an end, visiting the Horton House,
which was one of the first settlements on the island.




After a while, she just starts ignoring me....


And this one as well was tired of "all the pictures"







Next stop, St. Simons Island!

Let's Continue My Spring Break Journey.

Alllllrighty, so the next stop
on our spring break journey was
down to Jekyll Island, GA.
It wasn't too bright or stormy,
just quiet and calm. I have many fond
childhood memories of these islands, and it was
nice to go back and have those memories resurface as in fact,
 positive ones.














And a jellyfish to end part 1 :)

The Lady and Sons.

In my journey through Savannah,
we ended it at Paula Deen's retaurant,
The Lady and Sons. I mean, the woman
is pretty much the first lady of the south. And after
21 years here as a southerner, I finally got a seat!
So here are the final moments in my little Savannah outing.









These are the flowers my Nanny had growing all around
her house when I was a little girl. I thought it nice of her
to pop up in our visit :)


Oh Paula. Best Hoecakes of my life!!!
