i love the colors of her layout and the cursive font is really sweet.
she blogs about being crafting, reading a lot of good books and all of her fancy cooking.
[90% of what she makes, i cant eat, but i love seeing all the recipes. and one of these days, i will veganize a few of her things and post them over here]

go read her blog. say hello. tell her that her name is really cool ;)

also, here are a few more pictures from our weekend.
[yesterday = brunch with our dear friend emily, a 25 mile bike ride, meeting some friends in the park and checking out the waterfalls. after we got home, i got into 'craft gear' and knocked a million things off the list.]

also, i dont know how i havent mentioned this yet : be we are going on vacation this week!
where??!
stop one = washington dc to see my super cute friend sho. and to see THE BACKSTREET BOYS! if you have been reading for a while, or have known me since 7th grade, you know that i am in LOVE with nick carter all of the backstreet boys! we will be in dc for a few days ; hopefully riding bikes, eating vegan treats and doing this workout. seriously.
stop two = north carolina to see blakes family. also, riding bikes. not eating animals. and hopefully not getting eaten by sharks in the ocean.
