Egg-static for Easter

Hey Ya'll,

(That title took longer than I'd like to say to come up with - I'm fresh out, guys)

I'm a little kid at heart.  The kind of person who skips down the street for absolutely no reason, than the freeing feeling.  The kind of person who bakes chocolate chip cookies, but ends up making half the batch, because I've gotten too excited and licked the spoons, mixer blades (sorry mom!), and bowl. The kind of girl who can't keep a straight face, and mutters under her breath "...that's what she said".  (Yes, I'm aware the joke is old, overdone, and terrible.) ( I also don't care!)

I also enjoy celebrating holidays, as most kids do.  It brings me back to my carefree childhood times.

So, yes, I carved pumpkins for Halloween. 



And, yes, I did do Christmas big. 




So, what holiday is next? 







Yes, I'm aware that Easter isn't "technically" about cute little bunnies, colorful eggs, hunting for said eggs, and peeps.  However, I am not a super religious person, so, to me, this is how I like to celebrate. To each their own, right?

To make a long story longer, Martha - I love you.  I'm going to dye eggs this year if it kills me.  

Any suggestions to what I can do with these chicken droppings after Easter? I can only eat so many hard-boiled eggs. Serious guys, too many eggs can kill (It's probably on Wikipedia).

Love, AJ

Holiday Ridiculousness

Hello! 

Hope everybody had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!! I had a lovely long weekend.  It was my first Thanksgiving away from home, without my mom's home cooking (yeah right!).   But luckily, I have a pretty sweet boyfriend and a pretty rockin' Dallas family - so it helped to spend the holiday with them.  I got a lot of rest, and much-needed relaxation (and braved   the Black Friday crowds!).  Why?  BECAUSE IT'S FINALLY THE BEST TIME OF THE YEAR. 

IT'S CHRISTMASTIME!!


Oh, did you not know? I'm completely obsessed with Christmas. The lights, snow, love, and spirit.  It just electrifies me and restores my faith in humanity - year after year.  Christmas never fails me, and it swallows me whole.  And yes, if you're wondering, I am that really obnoxious girl who listens to Christmas Carols, and watches those horribly cheesy Christmas movies.  And I am not sorry about it one bit.  I've been listening and watching since July, it's about time the rest of the US catches up! :)


My roommate and I put up our decorations yesterday. But I am always itching to find new things to put up!  Any fun ideas ya'll do? The cheesier, the better!
