Wall graphics

OMG, I've been shopping different vendors that offer cool/mod wall graphics that you easily apply.

I must have the spirals, mod pods, and sputnik from One Up Wall Graphics!

I see PUMPKINS in them thar hills!

Okay, so those pumpkins are decorative, and those hills are the aisles of Michael's...but fall decor is a' comin' out people! Which only means if you can just look past the triple-digit heat, we're on our way there!

June 25th WAS the 6 month mark y'all! (Sadly, also the day that MJ passed, but I always mark the 6 month countdown to Christmas! Just a lil' sadder this year.) :(

Another new toy...gotta' love those Breville folks

My Breville® Stainless Steel Smart Oven™ ROCKS YOUR SOCKS!

I'd been saving up for this lil' diddy. It's perfect for when you don't want to heat up the whole kitchen by turning on your reg oven. Like, May - Sept here in Texas! lol It's oversized, so it will fit a 12" pizza, and came w/ a pizza pan, and broiling pan!

I used it for the first time last night and made roasted chicken in like 15 mins. Did I mention it's convection??? :) And did I mention that it fits nicely on a shelf inside my tall pantry cabinet, and there's a plug-in inside the pantry. So, I can hide it away and it doesn't take up counter space - genius!

I LOVE-LOVE it. I will make more things, and report back.

Shoe-shi

Okay, on to a diff kind of sushi, SHOE-shi. OMG...I SO WANTED this pair of Coach platforms at the new Nordstrom Rack that opened at ParkLane this weekend. So much so that I toted them around the store for about 2 hours, trying to justify the purchase, at a whopping deal of $119 for the pair. So, I toted, and doted, and dillied and dallied, and ultimately decided I should put them back and save my money (besides, the too-cute lil' gold buckles on the straps totally hurt the tops of my toesies after I wore them around for a bit).

So, with a pout on my face, I put them back on the rack, and promptly went out to my car, drove across the street to NorthPark Center, and plopped down more money than the above on M.A.C. make-up! (Go see Joel - pronounced Joe-ehl - at the Nordstrom M.A.C. - love him!) Oh, the sacrifices we women make for the greater good...
