Graduation.

I feel like I am always saying this. I have no idea what I am doing come January 1, 2010. I graduate in about 6 weeks...eek. It was only 6 months ago, when I had no idea what I was doing for summer. This drives me absolutely crazy! I am a planner. When I tell people I am graduating they always ask what my plan is. This question is almost as bad as the, "Are you dating anyone question."


I know everything will work out just fine. Maybe not how I imagined it, but I'll take it.

After this semester I am moving in with my parents. Besides the fact the I don't know anyone down there, I am actually okay with this. I look forward to always having food, a queen size bed, parking etc.


Love you all. Have a great weekend.

Obsessed.

When I first saw these shoes, I thought the idea was great. I did not think the shoes were great. About 2 1/2 months ago I was in a bind and needed closed toe shoes when I was out of town. I quickly went to Nordstrom hoping I would find something that wasn't too expensive since I didn't really need the shoes. I tried on a pair of Tom's shoes and Converse. I was shocked to find that I loved both pairs. I surprised myself and went with the Tom's.

Reason:
#1 They are SOO comfortable.!! Converse still give me blisters.
#2 For every shoe purchased Tom's gives a pair to a child in need.
#3 I already have a pair of converse.

I am so happy with my purchase. I wear them with everything..jeans, dresses, sweats etc. I definitely recommend them and of course, it's for a good cause.

I've tried so hard.


Here's a pic...

So I have attempted two maybe three posts in the last months. They are good ones too, but blogger is making me mad. It is not allowing my to post my pictures the way I want. So after a few times trying I gave up. I'll keep working on it.

Anyway...remember those amazing Nordstrom cookies I discovered over the summer, I was obsessed with???

Well I decided to try and make them. I took my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe and adapted it to make a lemon, coconut and white chocolate cookie. Here is the recipe:

4 1/2 C flour
2 tsp. baking soda
2 C butter
1 1/2 C packed brown sugar
1/2 C sugar
1 pkg. lemon instant pudding
4 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla ext.
4 cups white chocolate chips
1/2 C coconut

Cook 350 until golden 10ish mins.

mix: flour and baking soda and set aside

cream: butter, sugar, pudding, then mix in eggs and the vanilla.

..add in flour mixture.

finally, add the white choc. chips and coconut.

ENJOY! They have already received great reviews from friends.

Roommates!

It's a............BOY!


No....I am not prego. But there is a new addition to my family.



Meet Ginger.



My roommate and I were walking in our parking garage and we heard a meow. We thought this was odd considering we live in an apartment where animals aren't allowed. We see a little kitten, all dirty and searching for food. So we did what anyone with a heart would do. Keep it!

At first we thought it was a girl and named her Ginger...after doing some research we realized this girl was really a boy. So far we have kept the name Ginger, but it's currently being debated. He is the best kitten. Fun, loving and potty trained.

He can't be more than 2 months old and he is so well behaved. We aren't sure how long we will keep him. I guess until our landlord finds out or until we are all miserable from being allergic.

So if you know anyone missing a kitten or you want to adopt him from us..let me know.


Seriously though....best cat everrr!!!
