White Lions?

Hey sweets!

So has anyone ever heard of a white lion??? I certainly have not! I've heard of white tigers, but not lions. Well, I came across this picture and HAD to stick it on here! PROOF! How interesting, right? Don't they kinda look like someone just poured white dye all over their fur(s)?  ;D






White lions, white tigers, white bears- OH MY!

Rainy Days

Today I woke up out of my cozy little slumber cushion, only to find yet another day of rainy weather. :(

Now don't get me wrong- this is exactly what I hoped for when making a move from the forever dry and DESERTed, but with the amount of ...stormy skies we've been getting these past few weeks, this calls for some theme music.

Every time it rains from now on, I will whip out my unbeatable track of lil diddies to put some warmth and content back into my rained out heart.

... it's my rain coat. Forever protecting me from the depressing doldrums of early-morning downpour!

Mayan Calendar

Happy Friday!!

Anyone looking for some reading material? If you are as interested in the Mayan Calendar and what it has to say about our fate in December 2012, check out a research paper I wrote on it. I included information about who the Mayans are, why they created this crazy calendric system, and what they are telling us. This subject is relatively subjective; it's all about interpretations. Tell me how you interpret the Mayan Calendar...


Enjoy!

Welcome Spring!

Howdy y'all!


Today was the very first day of the blooming and beloved spring!

Many of you might resonate seasons with certain activities or holidays, thus giving the season a special essence that comes upon you once a year. For instance, some might pair spring with the term, 'spring cleaning.' If this is true, then I assume some of you have genuine, ear to ear smiles paired with Christmas morning eyes out of the sheer anticipation of finally getting to use that new Swiffer contraption you've been dying to break in. For others- I feel for you, I really do- you are probably moaning and groaning because, by chance, you get stuck with OCD neat freaks that find the only holiday that could ever possibly be better than Christmas- the day the clock strikes spring.

Tragic.

So, tell me- what does spring mean for you?

How to Cucumber Salad

Cucumber Salad

  • 1 cucumber
  • 1- 1 1/2 tomatoes
  • 1/2 onion
  • dash of sea salt
  • and black pepper
  • balsamic vinegar
  • and olive oil (eyeball it)
  • pinch of parsley




The Cold, Hard Truth

This vegetarian dish brings an essence of chill and breezy summer days into your mouth, the minute you take a bite of that pacifying cucumber. But suddenly, the tang of edgy balsamic vinegar disrupts your delight, catching you off guard from the sour crunch of savory onion. But all balance is restored when the ever constant tomato comes to save the day. Such a symphonic delight to your tastes buds- you even forget that it's healthy!

Project Design on a Dime Complete

Hey lovies!!

So my mom and I recently decided to go a little artsy and totally repaint all of our furniture. Now, need I mind you that our stash of plump, plush beauties is not exactly what Pottery Barn would consider a "complete set," but our freshly distressed coffee table, weathered and edgy TV stand, and gold rushtic bar stools are feelin the ego boost of a nice, fresh makeover. :)

Well, if the birdy hasn't gotten around to your window yet, my mom and I just made a big move from Arizona to California. In order to successfully do this, we got rid of all large pieces of furniture so everything could fit into our humble sedan. So in the process of getting settled, we have been reaccumulating cute and inexpensive pieces, knowing we could easily revamp them all into marvelous masterpieces to accentuate our lovely home! Anyways, as we acquire more, many of these pieces could end up getting shuffled around the house, but for now, our living room is much livelier with them included!
