Blog Love Friday: Michelle at Dessert First

Several years ago I worked for a great company in South Charlotte.....and I got laid off. It was one of the hardest things I think I have ever dealt with professionally. It wasn't just me, there were a bunch of us that got the pink slip, but I have never felt so worthless. I had made so many amazing friends at that company and truly loved what I did and I just could not understand why they picked me.

The silver lining is that we stayed in touch with most of the people I used to work with. One particular couple is the G Family. When my water broke at 2:15 in the morning we knew we could call upon this family of one awesome mom and 4 boys to come help us with my stepson.  (Yes T, I just called you a boy) They started as our tailgate buddies but we really consider them close friends.

So after baby Ford came home this is what supermom Michelle brought us.....

Insane right? ALL homemade!!! If you have a friend that is expecting or just brought a baby home you should seriously contact her to do your drop off dinner. So I'm so excited she has started a blog!!!! Please go check her out immediately. She is an amazing mother and fabulous cook. Plus she just posted about Fall which is by far the BEST TIME OF THE YEAR!
Michelle if I was your neighbor I would come steal these!

Confession Tuesday: Missoni Confusion


I must not be a stylish person. I like pretty things but I would not be classified as someone "in the know" when it comes to fashion. So when the world melted down today and crashed the Target site for Missoni I was left speechless.

People went nuts...

For this shit...

Okay, I give you this and only this...the above dress paired with black tights and boots or flats would be cute. But that's IT! (Well maybe the flats, my co-worker got them and they are kind of cute)


Mostly I think it all looks like this!

Did you shop? What did you buy? Email me pics of your outfits and prove me wrong!

Should I Gallery Wall it?

I know.....I know, they are so overdone. But I don't care....I really want to do a gallery wall going up my stairs. It's just that I have so many family pictures I love and I've covered every possible table with silver picture frames and I think its overkill. If they were huge and blown up going up my stairs I might be able to tone down the photo-montage around the house. I'm sure a pro would tell me its a little absurd but my family knows how to have a good time and I love reminiscing.

Remember the one from the Movie Life As We Know It? I think it is a little too uniform, but I LOVE the rest of the house....


My dream house has a room like this. We would use the hell out of it. Just add a fireplace. (And a flatscreen..yes I said it..but this would be a great football watching room)

Amazing back yard for entertaining. Ours looks pretty terrible these days due to the excessive heat/lack of gardening/dog poop.

But back to gallery walls...
