The Beehive Bazaar

If any locals want to attend, I am sure it is going to be a blast. I'm marking it on my calendar, so I might see you there. Check out their website here for a list of artists and goodies.

.

I officially have a cold. I want to go to sleep, but I have one more English article to read before I can hit the bed.

.

So, farewell ladies. I hope the cold bug doesn't catch up to you too, and make your head feel like a balloon.

Happy Thanksgiving

"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow."

-- Melody Beattie

Happy Thanksgiving! Wishing you all the best!

Perfect Pink

Who knew that pink could look so good? I love the retro feel of these photos. I wish I could look like that every day. Once again, Vogue, I am in love.

.

Small Magazine

I am officially 3 hours away from the holiday. I am dying!! Since I have a break before my next class full of British Lit fun, I decided to post about an online magazine called Small magazine. It is so cute, and has the best pictures, cute ideas, art features, and a brownie recipe I am dying to try out. Here are some of the pages that are my favorite below:



I would love a dress like this, and the yellow one below. Sometimes kids have the best fashions!

There's the recipe. Don't those look yummy?

.

So here's something for your day if you have a minute to spare.

.

Have a great afternoon! I'm sure you deserve it.

Randomness

Yes... I'm random. But I still love it.

.

I wasn't sure what to post about, I have been kind of in a slump. My life right now is constant studying, so no fun inspiration or projects or anything. Sad. Here are some of the things on my mind today:

.
my new anthropologie goodies traveling to me in the mail: this and this

my new email button provided by the lovely oh, hello friend
this recipe for meyer lemon and fresh cranberry scones (see the pic below)

.

Anyone have any fall recipes that are yummy? I love to cook, but I especially love baking good desserts. Unfortunately, that pastime has recently been pushed to the side, but hopefully I can pick it back up again during these holiday weeks. What better time to do it!

.

Anyways, have a great Friday tomorrow, I can't wait for the weekend to start!

Hi friends...

Long time no see. I have been swamped. Why does life like to hit you right at the same time with everything? I think that is a question I'll be asking myself many many times. Well, not to worry, I am stress free for a couple of days, so I will be around to post.

.

Some thoughts on my mind:

.

love the neutral pallet of these rooms

whether to buy these boots

how to teach Gulliver's Travels for 50 min.

plaid

what perfume I should get (any suggestions?)

loveliness at anthropologie

high heeled t-straps

.

I'll be back tomorrow for more posting, random thoughts, you name it. Keep on the lookout for some fun news-- I can't wait to spill the secret... lets just say, it includes a giveaway. But I won't say more and ruin the surprise.

.

Here's looking forward to a lovely tomorrow!

Beatice Peltre

.Check out this way cute house from Beatrice Peltre... some of the details just make me love it even more, like the blue shelves and the chalkboard message center.
.

I am up to my ears in homework, so I just wanted to pop in and say hi, and I will try to stop in later with more fun stuff.
.

Have a good weekend!
