eggs in a basket, birds nest, guy kibbee eggs..the list goes on!

A rainy day calls for sleeping in, Benny Goodman, snuggles with Whoof, and some good old fashion eggs in a basket. What tastes better than bread fried in butter? The first time I ever spotted this dish was in the most unexpected place: the movie V for Vendetta. Have you ever seen it? After figuring out that the recipe goes by a million and one names, Mommalah and I prepared to put our two brains to work, only to find out it is just about the easiest thing in the world to make! Simple, quick, AND delicious? How refreshing! The pan there is looking a little crusty...guess it is just well loved? :) It looks a bit like a yummy cyclop eye, no?

Hope you all eat something tasty today!

OOTD mellow yellow

 
Dress: Forever 21
Flatforms: H&M
Earrings: Target 

What the beans happened to blogger?? I feel like such an old fogie trying to learn how to use all these new fangled web designs.

This morning I was feeling rather cheerful when getting dressed, although I must admit this is not what I initially wore out of the house. Spring weather can be so fickle! Rainclouds and drizzle one minute, sunshine the next. In any case, I bought this at Forever 21 two weeks ago and have been dying to wear it on a night out with some red lips. There are so many bright and happy colors in the shops right now, it is absolutely delightful! This little number has nifty pockets and a fun cherry design printed all over. The belt came with the dress and even though it is a little cheapie, I can't complain because belts are probably my LEAST favorite thing to buy. So hey ho! :) The glitter DIY promised has hit a few speed bumps along the way, but I anticipate posting it by the week's end. 

Hope this post finds you happy and in good health!

kanye workout plan?

Sorry for the dilatory post! Work has been super hectic on both fronts and with the recent sunshine, Whoof and I have been sunning our perfectly rounded bellies at the beach. It just might be time to begin a gym regime. My knee caps have happily been hidden away for most of the winter but now that they are out and about, I've been a little red in the face. Anyone have any suggestions on how to stay disciplined with the treadmill? This yummy meal from dinner out last week sure didn't help!


Another D.I.Y coming up in the next day or two! Anticipate LOTS of glitter!

floral, meet faux leather



It is really flip flipping hot today! Whoof is taking a nice snooze, Mommalah is doing a little drawing, and I'm halfway out the door to the beach!

Quick simple outfit today. The floral top was $10 at a second hand store I stumbled into last week and has really neat button detailing down the back. It scoops a little lower than I'd normally like but it is really nice and airy plus the color scheme was too cool to pass up! This is one of the first tops I've bought that has an interesting collar too. The shorts are just a pair I found at H&M back in December. So happy there was plenty of sunshine to wear something like this today!
