i think this is in order

Dear Darren,
And from me.

P.S. For those of you who haven't heard, Darren has been awarded his Masters degree with distinction. And that, my friends, is VERY good indeed.

well hello to you too

I don't mean to get all up in your grill with some 'my fetus is cuter than your fetus' nonsense, but seriously, have you seen a cooler looking arm and hand?

sweet (as in awesome)

Have you heard?

Diablo Cody (of Juno fame) is set to produce and direct a film adaptation of the Sweet Valley High books.


Rad.

The best Christmas present my sister ever got was the Sweet Valley High board game. Fantastic game. You were Jessica, Elizabeth, Lila, or Enid and the whole point was to go around the board trying to find their boyfriends and the items they needed for their date. Man, the fights we had over who got to be Jessica.

I never won...I am naturally an Enid.

If all goes well, sometime in late March, I'll be feeding a baby.



We're excited...

And a little terrified.

see this guy?

I am SO proud of him!



Two more weeks. You can do it!!!

shameless self aggrandizing

Elsie included my work on yesterday's edition of 10 things I love Sunday. Scroll down, I am part of number 9.

I'm just a little bit flattered!!!

And check out my Flickr set for more of my embroidery. I'll be adding more pics throughout the rest of the summer!

I loved this entire virtual exhibit of ads 'Rebranding America'. Some are controversial, some are brilliant.

But this one is poetic. by Dan Wieden of W+K12 in Portland.


Let's celebrate our independence to dream, believe, create, love, and parade.

Happy fourth.

Dear Dad,

Happy Father's Day! Thank you for wanting me to have more than you ever had yourself. You are one in a million.

I love you!

happy birthday

I am, oh so happy that we are a team.

I love watching ours shows together in bed.

I love that you make me laugh.


Here's to 70 more June 17ths together.

Postscript: Congratulations on rocking that Lanark paper.

so, we went home to america and it was awesome, part 1

I can't even describe how incredible it was to be home. So, I will show you in pictures:

1. My first sweet sip of a re-fill-able-fountain-machine-with-ice-diet-coke.


2. We had a great time hanging out with the rest of the Zufelts at Jim & Heidi's wedding--which was fabulous. Other than their beautiful vows, the best part of the day was the location and the food.


Oh, and seeing my man in a tux for the first time.


3. Reuniting the Anderson family at Hogle Zoo.





Hilarity.

On memorial day we got to go eat french toast with these guys.


Whilst in Utah I also ate:

This salad twice:


A big bag of these:


And this while I was hiding out in my car in the Sugarhouse Smith's parking lot before I went in and perused their (incomparable) makeup isle looking for a new eye lash curler.


And so many of these I made myself sick:



I love America.

Oh, and part 2 will be coming soon.

Also, a Flickr account so that I don't have to blog so many pictures.

Also, us. Coming home (mostly) for good in December.

I can't wait.

a new computer deserves high quality desktop art

Darren found me this one via.

the only reason i can even think about leaving tomorrow

a full report on all the junk food and family time coming soon.

portobello road, part one

i have much more to share about london, but i couldn't wait any longer for this series on portobello road. the nottinghill area was one of my favorite parts of london. if i lived there, this is where i'd try to live. (inevitably with 12 other people in a one room flat...just to afford it).

i also was feeling good enough to be in charge of the camera, so for this post only, i can claim credit for the photos.

without further ado, portobello road, the non-food related post:
