Hello! I’m 25 now! I had an excellent birthday, even though my family got snowed out of visiting.
That weekend we went bowling at Lucky Strike, had dinner with friends, and played with my new present:
Thank you to everyone who pitched in for my super cool gorgeous flat screen HDTV! Our games look fantastic, I don’t have to squint from the back couch, and we get most network HD stations with out antenna (no cable for us!). Also, I discovered this rad channel call the tube that
plays music videos ALL the time. It’s a dream come true (sniff!). On my actual birthday we played games with friends and had pizza and ice cream cake. I won boggle and scrabble 🙂
In other news, I went to a new craft store with a new friend. Fancy Tiger has great fabrics, yarns (including crewel!), and vintage goodies for making hip crafts. I got some great fabrics for my wall projects and a tiny crewel kit.
I saw The Queen this weekend and loved it. One of the best made movies in a long while, definitely recommend it. Should have won Best Picture (my Oscar party was fun, by the way. Shawn won the pool).
My HOA is hilarious sometimes. They do an awesome job keeping the grounds clean, especially with the constant snowfall. One day we came home to this on our door:
Overkill?
Oh! I’m so flattered to have been mentioned in your blog! (and glad to hear that we are really friends and I wasn’t just dreaming) Also…please begin calling me nightly with the recipes for whatever you’re making for dinner since it looks like I”m gonna want all of them.
