surreal/so real

hello again.

Hello yellow, I'm here (kind of).

Afternoon Giggles

It's Saturday and R. and I are on the island visiting my family - yay! Mama and I made Chocolate Chip Nutella and Sea Salt cookies today - ohmylanta, you should give it a whirl if you've a thing for salty deliciousness.

Being central Florida, it's all sorts of thunder-grumbly, raining and sunshine and rain again. Taking a break from shoving delicious cookie in my gob, I hopped on the interwebs only to literally bust a gut laughing at my college friend Beca's bee story.

The complex she mentioned in her comical tale was my first stop in Jacksonville - a year of hell and god-awful roommates (one disney-obsessed; another an introvert that stole my sub-leaser(@#!) and last but not least, a roommate so pious that she got a tramp stamp for the good Lord, and brought a different boy home every night to boot).

Belated Birthday Biz

R. took me to the Dali Museum in Tampa for my big 2-5 (..dang/old/whaat I can rent a car now! And totally have, woo, not that exciting). It was super gorg, and definititely remniscent of the structure in Figueres.

 

Indian Summer Wedding

A wedding in Virginia Beach at the (supposed!) turn of the season, with a (completely beautiful and totally out of the way) stop in the Blue Ridge Mountains:

Sunday

My fave day of the week, always -

R. had tailgating and Jags home game today,
so I have the house and the cats all to myself.

Sunday morning sunshine and snuggly kitties
Bagel Love nibbles, loads of laundry, finishing up a wedding present -
Very mellow.
