Wall Paper

Don't you just love wall paper? Here are just a couple that I found that I really like. I don't love them enough yet to put any up in my house but I'm liking them more and more all the time.

Book Case Love

I know it’s not want list time yet, but I saw this the other week at JYSK and I couldn’t wait for that post. It would go perfect in my new house, my the living room. I can just seem all my books on it!! What do you think? It’s it wonderful!

What I've been up to lately

 Made some honey dill sauce.

Tried to grow asparagus. 

 Made a new terrarium.

Enjoyed some furry friends.

 Tried to figure out what to wear. 

 Did a little dog sitting. (Ollie prefers to be an only child)

Enjoyed something I haven't had in a long time.

 Went to the beach.

 Tried to escort these guys to their new owner (don't worry, they still made it, but more on that later)

Had some airport food. 

 Came home to flowers. 

Made raisins. 

Had a summer snack.

Bought my first garden additions. 

Tried German food for dinner club. 

Tried a new salad.

Snooped around my neighbors garden. 

Went for Ethiopian. 

Had soup that tasted like feet (I wasn't smiling after I tried it)

Movie Marathon

We had our annual Movie Marathon this week. It was pretty make shift this year. With being away, and being busy with school I didn't put in a lot of time to planning this so there wasn't a lot of anticipation on what movies we would watch, and what we would eat. We pretty much found a couple movies we wanted to see on Netflix which got up thinking about a couple other ones we wanted to download, I found some appetizers we still had in the freezer and some baking and we went to it.

 I leave to make some food and this is what I come back to...

Ollie is pretty ballsy. He just gets right up on the table to get to the food. I was like "Hey! Seriously?" then he sat down thinking that "Oh, well I'll do a trick, and then maybe I'll get something". It's a good thing he's so cute.

Christmas Eve with Mom

 Before we went away we had a little "Christmas Eve" time with my mom. One of our traditions is to open a gift, or our stockings on Christmas Eve and because we were going to be away until Christmas day we planned ahead and had a little faux Christmas Eve before we left!

Who couldn't use another plant? (Well, other then me, I've lost count of how many I have)

 I made my mom a "batch" of Cowgirl cookies in a jar. She got a kick out of it, and these cookies are seriously good!

Ollie really wasn't into this. He was so not happy to have this Christmas stuff on but he just looked so cute! 

 And of course Ollie gets some gifts too. He was inseparable from this toy for the rest of the night.

 A beautiful ornament from my mom (Another Christmas tradition; I get a new one for my tree every year)

Lavender solid  perfume and lemon grass essential oil. 

 Some money for our trip and hot pepper jelly. 

 Some treats for our trip and some cocktail picks. 

 He's very excited about these knives. I'll get some better pictures but they are seriously sexy knives!

And a couple of ties form me. It was a great night, and wow does my mom know how to spoil us!
