drunk girls say dumb things

last night instead of going out my friends came to me. 

it was wonderful staying in and enjoying drinks and good company at home.

i haven't laughed that hard in ages.

 this was before all my wine glasses were broken by a pack of wild girls. 

because of all the broken glass i put charles on top of the dishwasher to protect his paws.

corny bottle of wine provided by jackie. 

corrynn quite smoking so now she smokes these guys. 

i mistakenly grabbed one this morning when i took charles on his walk.

i almost threw up. 

and then corrynn attempted to kill me.

photo series by jackie!

thanks jackie, kimmy and corrynn. GOODNIGHT.

new book

"Could it be because it reminds u that we are alive, of our mortality, of our individual souls- which, after all, we are too afraid to surrender but yet make us feel more miserable than any other thing? But isn't it also pain that often makes us most aware of self? It is a terrible thing to learn as a child that one is a being separate from the world, that no one and no thing hurts along with one's burned tongues and skinned knees, that one's aches and pains are all one’s own. Even more terrible, as we grow old, to learn that no person, no matter how beloved, can ever truly understand us. Our own selves make us most unhappy, and that's why we're so anxious to lose them, don't you think?"
-Donna Tartt  (The Secret History)

tortellini and kielbasa soup

I added a lot more red pepper to spice it up.
The perfect winter soup.

Its been tough times out there at the thrift stores. I've been trying to really only buy things that I really love and desperately need. In the past few months I haven't found much. Yesterday was a success. This is the best item I've found in months.

Introducing my new kicks! Eat your heart out.

Just $14.99.
Retail for $106.

as of late

dear sweet kitty

i'm feeling a need to go to sanrio. BAD.

 need a new iphone case.

and a new makeup bag.

why not try, right?

I've been feeling very inspired to start cooking now that I live in a home with a spacious kitchen. Even when I'm not cooking I sit in the kitchen for internet, work and just about everything else.

Last night I made some tacos (nothing special) but I needed to fulfill a craving I'd been having for days. I served it up sort of buffet style so you could sit at the dinner table and make your own.

 Tonight I'm making grilled BBQ chicken, asparagus, and creamy garlic vermicelli.

This weekend I'll be making tortellini and kielbasa soup. Very excited.

commons&sense

very much loving this magazine i bought yesterday.

commons&sense is a japan based mash up book of all sorts of fashion/food/reading/etc.

it is splendid. worth the $18.
