Pretty Packaging

Sometimes I like to roam around the aisles at grocery stores just to take a glance at product packaging. I just love finding things that are just packaged wonderfully, and I get a sudden urge to buy it without thinking of what's inside. That's just me anyways... (;

Check out these awesome blogs that feature beautifully & cleverly packaged items!

Adorable Animals

I am an animal lover.

In my lifetime I have had; 20 bunnies, 5 cats, 3 dogs, 2 mice, 1 ferret, 1 parakeet, and numerous amounts of fish. Don't worry, not all at the same time though (; Right now I am down to one little maltese named Chanel. She will be turning five years old this year!

I started a board on pinterest called "adorable animals" to hold all
of the amazingly cute photos of animals I have come across:
^
I just love this! He's saying "Hi!".

Just Golden

I have been loving the color gold lately.

I've been wearing gold nail polish for the past few days, and I am loving it! I would definitely call myself a "plain jane", but whenever I wear golden nail polish, I feel so dressed up! haha

Having a closet like this would be a dream come true...

I think these delicate gilded bowls would look absolutely wonderful in my living room (:

I love this photo so much! The little specks of light are just lovely.

Sweet Little Garden

I absolutely love these moss planters! They are like chia pets, but ten times better! I found this image via pinterest, but I am unable to find the actual store selling these!
If you know, please tell me! (:

Adventure

I really really realllyyyy want to go on a road trip, or go travel to another country. It's so sad because I have never traveled anywhere besides the west cost of America, plus Colorado. I have always dreamed of going to Europe, or somewhere in Asia. Maybe this summer will be the time to experience the world around me!

Makes Me Hungry

I want to make these delicious looking desserts so badly...
...like that chocolate ganache tart, a piece of a scrumptious looking lemon tart, a hot cup of lavender hot chocolate, and some sweet chocolate cupcakes!

P.S. I will be making some changes to my blog!
So please excuse any technical difficulties!

Spring is almost here + Naughty Chanel!

Today I finally woke up to some sunshine! Sad thing is that later in the day, it was hailing like crazy! Some days I feel like I experience all four seasons in one day. I feel like spring is right around the corner, I am seeing flowers starting to bloom, especially daffodils which I have a lot of in my yard!

After lunch, Chanel was being a naughty girl and peed on the carpet,
so she was put in time out. She had to go stand (literally) in the corner haha (;

Have a great weekend!

Happy Sunday!

Hello hello!
Has anyone seen the "super-moon" last night!? I was too cloudy for me to see, but I was able to catch glimpses of it. It wasn't as big as I expected it to be, it was only bright. I heard in other places it looked huge though!

Hope For Japan

My hopes and prayers go out to everyone that has been affected by the 9.0 earthquake in Japan. There are hundreds of aftershocks still occurring, that are still really high magnitudes. It breaks my heart to see all of the houses being destroyed by the huge tsunami. The death toll has risen to 10,000, and continues to rise. I have many close friends that have family & friends in Japan. I pray that everyone will be alright!

You can help to rebuild Japan! Purchase a decal/sticker here.
All proceeds go to the Red Cross Japan Relief Fund.

Happy March everyone!
This morning I woke up to 3 inches of snow! Ahhh! I thought winter was supposed to be over....Maybe I can build a snowman, and get some good out of this snow (: Is anyone else affected by any crazy storms that have been happening lately? I just hope spring is around the corner, I am ready for some sunshine!
