"WO - man...WO - man....WOOAAAHHH MAN!"

Things I Love Saturday!
Sorry its not things "i love thursday", but i'm BUSY on thursdays!!
And, in response to my mother's blog about things SHE loves, i figured i'd give it a shot, too...!
#1: I love my new Wamsutta pillow.. after only a few hours of sleep the night i bought it, i still woke feeling refreshed and energized! .....thats a lie....no didn't....after my Arby's escapade, i woke up feeling sick and tired....BUT at least we know it WASN'T caused by my lovely pillow!

#2: My Rainbows!

They are these divinely soft leather sandals, originaly only sold in California. People from California thought they were really cool and special because they were the only ones with Rainbows.....HA! No longer the case, my little friends! Available now at Journey's Shoes in light brown, dark brown, thick or think strap! YAY! i LIVE in mine..... but the trick is breaking them in. Once you get a good, solid foot indention, youre good to go!

#3: Raisin Bran!

What a good invention...being on the raisin bran diet right now ( but curiously lacking raisin bran AND milk in my apartment)....its on my mind a lot. It has the perfect blend of bran and raisin, and is SO tasty when you get it all mushy!

#4: New York Yankees hat

I wear this hat everywhere, its great to just throw your hair up, showerless, and walk out the door! Sometimes, people stop me and get all excited thinking i'm from New York, UNFORTUNATELY i'm just a fan....i hopped on the bandwagon....sorry folks! i love em!

I don't know if that constitutes a blog worthy list of favorites, but i hope my mom is happy i've blogged after almost a month!

Just an afterthought:

Gyms are disgusting! People! have ya looked around on of em! Spit, sweat, handling of things.....its not healthy! Not too mention the HUGE lack of clothing....i know its hot in there, c'mon, we're ALL working out, can't ya wear some clothes, though? its not cute....dispite popular belief...

I was watching Oprah ( LOVE her! she will SOON be a General Relief Society president) and there was a French lady on there who had written a book, it was sadly titled somthing like " American women are fat and French women are thin".......yeah.....how about " French people are rude and American women are charitable!" how about THAT one, lady!

....but i digress.....

She and Oprah were discussing the fact that in France, they don't have gyms. This French lady is totally disgusted with them. I kind of am beginning to agree with her, but she also thought that the perfect diet was small portions, a lot of walking, and a lot of wine....whatever lady....

Go Oprah!

J' espoire tu as un bon soir!

Envy Home Furnishings, This is Hannah.....

So ALL I DO IS WORK!
Mom tells me " welcome to the real world"......
I don't think so... I will not have a boring job. I make that vow to myself right now. I will do something crazy and interesting everyday.

Well, Mom is here for the few days she has till she flys back out. So far, its been quite the interesting trip.

The first night she came we went out to eat at this old little polygomist farm. Gardner Village. Its a very interesting place owned by Archibald Gardner who came over with the Saints and ran this farm with his HUGE family. There are roughly 30 tiny houses all built for his wives and children. Their old mill is now converted into a charming restaurant where Mom and I decided to eat!
I highly reccommend the food ( get the breaded avocados)....but WATCH your car carefully!
When we came out, my license plates had been stolen! Its true! Clean tore off of my little, violated car!
I don't know if you've actually seen Indiana's license plates, but they're beautiful - greens and blues with waving wheat - I loved mine dearly.

I have a feeling their with the same surly Naughty People that took Nutella's strange and interesting spices.

Well, maybe they aren't the SAME naughty people, but i'm sure they're all in the underground Naughty People Gang (NPG - I know I'VE heard of them) .......like Fight Club........they probably go international, too, so if you're overseas, DO NOT FEEL SAFE!

So, reported it to the police....yada yada yada

Then, Mom decides its TIME to take out my trash in my apartment ( I insist it could've sat there for another day or two).....and in the heaving process of hoisting it into the (rather oversized) dumpsters.....she throws in her rental car keys!! AH!
So, being the loving daughter i am, and definitely not wanting my little mother hopping and digging around in there - I plunged.....
Too bad it would be a better story if i was actually waste deep in banana peels and dog poo, digging furiously to the bottom.....alas, they were right on top! YAY!

So, TONIGHT is another interesting night with my sweet mother-who-birthed-me......
(updates later!)
