Go Jen.. It’s Your Birthday

That is right y’all…today is my 27th birthday. In this month, mind you its only the 7th day, i have found 3 gray hairs annnnnd what appears to be a lack of interest in all things “cool” kids enjoy. I shut my facebook down for 38 hours to see if it was something i needed and of course it isnt. I honestly think that mindless banter and wanting to see what all my old friends are doing isnt as fun as it use to be. Oh Lord!!!!! I’m turning into a pre-30 year old middle aged woman. I’ll be at the morgue picking out my headstone. At least i had tasty chik-fila before i go

Ambitious shmambitious

I have been in a creative slump for the past few years. From having 2 babies in 3 years, preoccupied by facebook, and steering away from my own aesthetic, i lost my way. But, i have been devoting more time to myself after the kiddos fall asleep, i shut down facebook for a while, and i am finding my way back to my own vision. This may be ambitious, but i will have lots of artwork to post in the next few weeks

The Potty Putter!!!
guess you can go #2 while you work on your hole-in-1!

Liquid Insanity

that is Mountain Dew. I have been up for waaaaaay too long. And I have literally accomplished nothing. I pinned 8 new things that I will never create. I set up a boutique session (oh yeah, i never mentioned I am a photographer. and no, not a MWAC photographer), which I am super excited about, but I am sure my vision will change by the time the session rolls around in February. And I made an ass of myself in an email attempt to book a possible client.                       yay me.

Wacky Wednesday Win

Todays Wednesday Win is a little different. On my hunt to find a science project to do with Connor, I stumble across Voss sparkling water. The wacky part is WHERE I found it. Marshalls??? Really?? So this is our winner this week!

Pretty in Peach

I have a new found love of all things peach. This all stems from this gorg peach sapphire ring I found on Etsy. Anyways…..a friend of mine, owner of Mills Design Co., was holding a contest and shockingly, I WON!!! I never win giveaways or “like” contests, but now I know why they say “Slow and Steady wins the Race”. It just took all (15) of those contests, not to mention all of the “enter to win now” emails I always try and only win SPAM! anyways….I won these gorgeous pillows!!! I am so excited! My poor, neglected, bedroom is about to have a huge upgrade and those pillows will definitely be making a statement.
So with all of that rambling being said, she is holding another “like” contest on her Facebook page. After the next hundred “likes”, she will be giving away another free pair of pillows to the person who referred the most people! So, go “like” her page and start referring people!!!

Pick Your Nose

Christmas

Christmas has come and gone, but I am left with a whole heap of loud and obnoxious toys, a mess on both the first floor and second, and a Paula Dean cookbook. Now, I love to cook, but very rarely do I use a cookbook. I like to “experiment”, but I find myself pleasing 1 person out of 3! So, my sweet, adorable, husband decided I needed a good, southern food, cookbook. His exact words were “you needed a cookbook with a good Country Fried Steak recipe”! So, tonight I made my very first recipe from it; Southern Chili in a Bread Bowl. I used my own chili recipe, but I made the bread bowl. It was a very different meal than I have ever made. Here is a picture of the finished product! Please excuse the horrible photography!
