Happy whatever-day-it-is.
I have a few things to discuss.
First, my vision has cleared. This could be due to the major amounts of rest, lounging, and lunching going on around these parts. And the complete lack of school, work, cleaning, and anything else related to doing something worthwhile with my day. At any rate, my blog’s font is all back to normal on my end, too. I am seeing what you all were seeing this whole time. Bam. It just happened today. Out of the clear blue sky. And I am an authority on the clear blue sky. I spent an hour under it reading Best Friends Forever by Jennifer Weiner just a little while ago. And I may or may not have been in a bikini on an old orange folding lounge chair. And I know that I did not overreact by jumping up and down and running around because a killer bee came near.
Second, have you caught “Blue Lagoon – The Awakening” on Lifetime yet? It’s fantastic. I almost watched it two times in a row, but then I saw a Dance Moms Marathon.
Last, I sort of did a project yesterday. Sort of.
I didn’t start it until about 6:00pm what with the remote control and dark chocolate covered Acai with blueberries. Or as I like to call them fruit disguised as chocolate.
I LOVE chocolate covered acai berries!! They are a terrible addiction at my house…but I convince myself they are healthy as well ๐
Love the tuna can idea…I have a few in my pantry (hmmm…)

Love your area! It looks awesome!! So do your drawers. You can come to my house next and clean out my drawers. ๐ I have seen on another blog to use toilet paper rolls to hold cords.

Your so funny!!! I love your wine cabinet/area:) Your drawers look awesome. For the wires….Hobby Lobby and a store called Batteries Plus have super cute different sized thingies that you can wrap your cords around and it keeps them all nice and neat….I'm sure other places carry them too:) Where do you get those berry chocolates…they look yummy:))
AND would you please start a segment on Dance Moms…I don't watch Bachelor…I know, the horror….but I don't but I do watch Dance Moms although I don't know why because Abby drives me nuts and if she ever talked to my kids like she does there would be a "throw down" and I would win!!!

Yeah for your organized desks. Mine not such much.
I've seen pictures of the paper towel tubes/toilet paper tubes used to contain cords.

Kristin,
Of course you know that I love your blog and your ideas and so on and so forth. BUT I am confused. As usual, I read your synopsis and then watched The Batchelorette. Usually you do an outstanding job preparing me each week. But not this week. You never mentioned the turquoise shoes. I agree about the shirt, but what about the shoes?
Your loyal follower,
Camille

Love that wine cabinet! Beautiful. And, your tuna can organizers are genius. It makes it even funnier that you dumped the tuna. That sounds exactly like something I would do. ๐
@Camille,
The shoes were atrocious, but I just couldn't get past that awful tank top/shirt. Maybe Kristin couldn't either. Ha!
Lyndsey
LOL! I have to get to the tv. Asap. I remember seeing a preview for that Blue Lagoon movie. I am sad that I spent my afternoon watching "Eight Days to Live" instead of the awesome "Blue Lagoon."
Thanks for the heads up.

Here's a cute pinterest idea for your cords:
http://pinterest.com/pin/141722719494344209/
But you have to go buy some cute, preferably vintage labels. And a cute, glass cookie jar (also preferably vintage, but one from Pottery Barn or Resoration hardware would also do). And you need some more cords. Maybe you could pick some up at a garage sale. ๐
HAHAHA…trained him… love it! ๐ Drawers look great- stop by my house whenever you get the urge ๐

I LOVE those acai berries! I could gobble down a whole bag in…well…less time than I'd like to admit. ๐
Will have to try those berries! You make me laugh and that is why I started following you. Thanks for keeping things light. I need a break from school thoughts and I haven't been successful.

Haha! You are hilarious! I love your wine counter/desk. I need to organize my kitchen drawers too but I'm in no hurry. The couch is too irresistible.

I watched Blue Lagoon: The Awakening too!
Didn't you think the girl looked like a young Brooke Shields?
I'm glad it wasn't cousins like the first Blue Lagoon!
And I noticed her name was Emma…and the first BL was Emmeline. And did you know Mr. Christansen in the BL: The Awakening is actually the guy that played Richard from the BL?

We have been scarfing down the pomegranate version of those berries here at my house.
Love your kitchen nook makeover. I am sitting at mine now but it is a desk…and the drawers are in need of tuna. We jumped on that dance moms marathon and watched till the bitter end! Thanks for the head's up!
I liked the Blue Lagoon show. I have caught it both times at 11:00 P.M. and stayed up to watch it. The girl made me mad though the they he treated him when they got back home. Those blueberries look delicious!

I am laughing outloud AGAIN!!! I think you should rename your blog to "LAUGHING OUTLOUD."
You truly have a gift for writing.

welcome to first grade room 5
Ohmygosh, I had a roommate in college that every time her mom came to visit would bring a ginormous bag of chocolate covered cranberries – talk about heaven! We would eat them in like, 30 minutes and it was HUGE!
I adore reading your blog! You are seriously so funny! What a fun lunch date you must be! haha!

You always make me laugh! I love your drawers. That's a project I need to tackle too.

Ok first… tuna smell..yick. Did you wash the cans in the dishwasher? That generally works for me when I'm reusing jars – not sure about cans.
LOVE those chocolate acaii berries… well chocolate covered anything really. Oh, probably not ants, though. ๐
Is the Blue Lagoon like the old movie with Brooke Shields and Christopher Atkins back in the 80's (I know, totally agin myself)
I LOVE your desk/wine area. Absolutely beautiful.
I have a few junk, err desk drawers that need organizing. They're not on my To Do list. Ya wanna come tackle them? I'll supply the tuna cans. ๐
I love that there are crayons and white glue in one of the drawers. It is like a grown up pencil box- with alcohol!!!
I think all pencil boxes should have a lil "something" in them. Would make for a nice day:)
You're non desk- desk looks beautiful! Cheers!

Looks like you have a winner…Toilet paper rolls for the cords! I also saw that on pinterest. Now you'll just have to go teepee someone so you can get all those empty rolls FAST! ๐
Love those chocolate berries ๐
The drawer looks great even if it may stink a little…hehe.

Okay my favorite part is "source-my kitchen" Bahaha! I died! P.s. that's gonna be all over pinterest! When are you inviting me over??? I wanna see your kitchen IRL!!
Oh my gosh!!! My mom,my sister, and I just gobbled down almost a whole bag tonight. I was just thinking I need to go to Costco and grab the industrial size before we head out to cedar city and the Shakespeare festival (our yearly pilgrimage).

I read this once to myself – laughing the whole time… then read it to my husband – he didn't appreciate it as much, but I think it has something to do with the fact that it is almost midnight… and he's a grouchy pants, who by the way also needs training in what to do with his junk. ๐ This is my first time on your blog, and I will be following you, because I feel like we just connected. I love this post… I love that it is so me. Haha ๐
oh.my.gosh!! I absolutely llllooovvvee the wine fridge! The whole thing looks out of a magazine. I am literally drooling. lol Please enjoy that daily ๐
Always A Lesson
Oh my goodness! Where did you get your wine glass shelves?! Our rental has them and we really want them for our new house (our very own!!) and I've been googling forever and can't find them!! If you tell me where you bought them I will love you forever in a non-stalkerish way!! ๐
PS- Super jealous you have a wine area. I want!
Wow look at your go!! I love all the organization!!
did you see my post I just did?? It has all kinds of fruit water to make ๐
and ….BIG question – are the drawers and counter STILL cleaned out/off?!?! ๐
Awesome work! One idea I saw on Pinterest is using empty toilet paper rolls to contain cords. You could wrap the rolls in pretty scrapbook paper so they don't look ridiculous. Here's a link and here's another one. Awesome work ๐
