Snaps and Blooms



I made a batch of homemade ginger snaps that were absolutely amazing!! I mean, I'm not tooting my own horn, I just followed the recipe (except I used whole wheat flour and replaced shortening with veg oil). Also, I bought myself some flowers and arranged this bunch for my living room. Flowers are just so happy, I love them.

Enjoy your Thursday evening...

DC Chillin'

On our way from the airport to the hotel!
Our gorgeous bed!
The shower!
My cute outfit before the sweat.
Handsome.
Powerful Vietnam Reflection Wall.
Honest Abe. Very moving (his words on the either side of the memorial).

Sweaty legs...ew.
So hot.
Amazing view of the Washington Memorial from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.
That's right, Kirk Cameron! He was interviewing someone. Mike Seaver!!

He wanted me to stop taking pictures of him. Psh, please.

3D glasses are the most ridiculous things ever. And hilarious.



Enjoying the cool floor of the front porch of the National Archives building.

Where's Waldo?
Aqui!

I got a little sassy.

Pear puree, Grey Goose, Lime, Triple Sec, and Basil. Delicious!

Slow down babe.

Kisses.

Sweetness

He's funny.

And Silly.

Love him.

Oh my, how I love DC? Jeremy planned such a perfect getaway for us. We had amazing food (and service) and saw so much. If you haven't visited DC in awhile, you should! It was just wonderful, and enjoying it with my best friend was just the ice cream on the cake (you read that right, I'd much rather have ice cream on my cake than icing).

My First First Friday Show

My dear helper, Dom.

My table was so small compared to the others!




Silly.



Sorry, I've had these photos in my computer for awhile. This was the First Friday of August. Each first Friday of every month, there is an empty store front that provides a space for artists to set up tables and sell their items. So, I set up my tiny little table and sold some goods. It was a blast and so many family and friends came by to support me! Then, Jeremy and I enjoyed dinner at Gravy with my Mom and Dad! Yum...

Saturday














Saturday we went to the Flea Market. If you're local, you should totally stop by one weekend. There is so much to look at which makes it hard when you have no spending money like me!

A couple of things that caught my eye: the old erector set, some vintage coke & pepsi bottles with the soda still in it, a hilarious/creepy witch doll with giant boobies, and of course Sam would love the pumpkins. He's my dog after all. With that said, I cannot wait for Fall. It is my favorite season and with the heat we've had I'm looking forward to it even more.

Another weekend post to come!
