$1 bowl from d.i.


this milk glass candy dish I found yesterday at the D.I. for one American dollar has made me so happy. I really love it.

i love my roommates.



this weekend I took some pictures for the first time in a long time. my little Canon PowerShot A560 is kind of getting old. but what's a girl to do with but a few pennies in her bank account? I think the old point-and-shoot will do until I can pay my bills.

I'm reading this book and love it so far. doesn't Ariel look stunning in those colors?

I want to go. Should I forfeit Washington this summer and go?

current interests.

I'm enjoying myself during the first week back to school. and taking advantage of the time I have to do a little posting. these past few weeks I have gained a few interests:

1. I discovered the OraBrush while watching this little video. and come to find out, their headquarters are in Springville, Utah. now, I haven't used mine yet because I just got it in the mail--but I'm really looking forward to it. they are offering them for free--pay for shipping and handling. if you are in the Utah Valley area, I would opt to pick it up from their offices. I paid $7.99 for my s+h and when I looked on my package it only cost them $1.98.

2. Dave Farmar yoga podcasts. I learned about Dave Farmar while listening to free 20-minute yoga downloads from iTunes. thanks to Melissa and Dani I've been running and doing a little yoga afterward.

3. Dave Salmoni and Into the Pride. I have been coming home at 5 to watch this show on Animal Planet. I love it so much. this decent-looking man is just living with a pride of lions in Africa and it looks like so much fun. the landscape is beautiful and I just love those lions. plus, Animal Planet doesn't skimp on drama. I also watched Wild Recon tonight, but it wasn't nearly as good as Into the Pride. besides, I like lions a lot more since I met Christian.

book covers.


my friend Megan got me this beautiful copy of "Sense + Sensibility" from Anthropologie for Christmas. and now I want all of them.
