Hodge Podge - Mix Match

FIRST .. Happy Near Year every one! - it's 2011 and i'm so excited - i love the 'official' beginning of beginnings - and i'm a true believe in "start overs" and "redo's"!! - hope every one is rejuvenated and ready to kick some butt in 2011 like I am - BIG THINGS AHEAD FOR ME! *wooohooooo*

SECOND .. on a bum note - i was suppose to be in the middle of the Caribbean right now for 2 weeks - my 2 week cruise vacation had to be postponed with all the "happenings" in my family *boooooo* - but i turely believe it was meant to be, and when i finally get aboard the boat, it's gonna be the best cruise ever!

*postive mind = positve results*

ANYWAY - back to blogging ..
a bunch of 'loves' i'm feelin' big time - see below:



i seriously wanna adopt this little guy - my Dad in college actually had a monkey!!! - yes a real monkey, well it was actually his roommates, but how awesome, right? - i want a monkey!


best advice i can give any one for 2011 !


i've been obsessing over crowns lately - i need some for my 'palace'!


mini grilled cheese sandwiches with tomato soup - genius! - will have at my next cocktail party!



in love with this 'bun' of sorts - i'm all about the imperfections of perfection


gypsy-boho vibes - ALL ERIKA! - love their looks!


beyond in love with this sweatshirt!


best dog house evah!
