Razzle. Dazzle.

Decorating my first house. Baking for my first husband.
And many things that I love... or like... or need to discuss.

I really wanted to use our leftover Crate and Barrel gift card for these CB2 candle holders.  Instead, I bought something practical.  Wah!!

Remember how much I wanted this?  And the huz told me to craft one myself?  Well, I tried.  And I am usually awesome at crafts.  But it did not work.  I spent $30 on supplies.  I could have bought one for $60.  {See huz, sometimes you should just let me shop!} Remember how much I wanted this?  And the huz told me to craft one myself?  Well, I tried.  And I am usually awesome at crafts.  But it did not work.  I spent $30 on supplies.  I could have bought one for $60.  {See huz, sometimes you should just let me shop!}

“Grown-ups love figures. When you tell them that you have made a new friend, they never ask you any questions about essential matters. They never say to you, “What does his voice sound like? What games does he love best? Does he collect butterflies?” Instead, they demand: “How old is he? How many brothers has he? How much does he weigh? How much money does his father make?” Only from these figures do they think they have learned anything about him.” Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince (via skysignal) (via capucha)

Important and relevant today.

“We all have the potential to fall in love a thousand times in our lifetime. It’s easy. The first girl I ever loved was someone I knew in sixth grade. Her name was Missy; we talked about horses. The last girl I love will be someone I haven’t even met yet, probably. They all count.
But there are certain people you love who do something else; they define how you classify what love is supposed to feel like. These are the most important people in your life, and you’ll meet maybe four or five of these people over the span of 80 years.
But there’s still one more tier to all this; there is always one person you love who becomes that definition. It usually happens retrospectively, but it happens eventually. This is the person who unknowingly sets the template for what you will always love about other people, even if some of these loveable qualities are self-destructive and unreasonable.
The person who defines your understanding of love is not inherently different than anyone else, and they’re often just the person you happen to meet the first time you really, really, want to love someone. But that person still wins. They win, and you lose. Because for the rest of your life, they will control how you feel about everyone else.”

Goop by Mrs. Coldplay. 
Yes, I signed up for Gwyneth Paltrow’s daily dose of email—  Because I need more emails in my inbox.  However, it’s a little strange.  In my first email, she talked about cooking a turkey (I thought she was all macro…).  She offered up some great recipes… and… a beautiful layout with gorgeous photography.  {could. not. resist. it.}
