my new dress

this weekend i was struck with urge to buy dresses. lots and lots of dresses. well, six, actually. is that a lot? would you feel better if i told you they were only $12 a piece. it sure made andrew feel better when i told him. this is one of my favorites. oh yeah, and that news i was speaking of. i guess i shouldn't have said news, because news seems huge especially in the blog world. it usually means a big move or a baby or a new job. nothing like that here. i just wanted you to be the first to know that jamie and i started a blog for ban.do. it's called i heart ban.do and you can find it here. that's the news. is that anti-climactic? i hope not. we just thought it would be fun to let everyone come along for the ride. it has been really exciting thus far and i feel like if it wasn't for all of my blog friends and family this wouldn't have happened. so thank you, and please check it out and spread the word.

happy monday!

ps. i am taking a vacation from becoming a foodie, so as to prevent my head from exploding. rumor has it, that is a very messy situation.

they're here!

hip hip hooray. after much stress, and just generally (and specifically) annoying stuff. the tags are here! hip hip hooray. oh wait. i already said that. i guess i'm just really excited.

also, not much more time on this giveaway, and you don't have to be a bride to enter. plus if you haven't been to snippet & ink, you should. it's a wonderful place.

we worked until our fingers bled
