I attempted the art project, and I successfully threw it away after i pulled up the tape to see that the paint bled under. Typical. I also purchased a book on Friday to help me pass the time, and last night I realized that 30 pages are missing! So, needless to say, I needed to come up with some new ideas to help pass the time. Thankfully, I was able to talk to Chatty Cathy- aka Anna multiple times over the weekend, and Bailey generously volunteered herself for me to take her on walks through the ice covered streets. <br /><br />Tonight, I felt like baking something and can't go to the store so had to make do with what I had in the pantry. I found this recipe for <a href="http://smittenkitchen.com/2006/11/blondies-for-a-blondie/">Blondies</a> and added in some mint/chocolate chips to them. They were pretty good. If I used the correct size pan, they would have been thicker and better. I have a whole pan minus two pieces gone, so please come and eat the rest :)Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04684875173121683171noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7490282544595632517.post-51414033571013814612010-01-29T19:43:00.002-05:002010-01-29T19:49:51.585-05:00artsy fartsywelp, shannon you are in luck. it looks like haiti is re-accepting my donation (my boyfriend) and he is on his way south. so that means I will probably blog more due to boredom. It is also supposed to snow this weekend, which is hard to believe for the Virginia Coast. Soooo, in preparation for being snowed in, alone, I am going to attempt these little <a href="http://decor8blog.com/2010/01/05/diy-chevron-art/">suckers</a>. We are in desperate need of something on the walls in our apartment, so this will do for now! (As long as it looks as cute as it does on this blog) it reminds me of the painted canvas shanney and I did in college!!Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04684875173121683171noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7490282544595632517.post-89426544953561230852010-01-26T20:39:00.002-05:002010-01-26T20:42:22.822-05:00HaitiI was going to donate my boyfriend for a month, but he is no longer going to Haiti.

It's already December 13th, and didn't really feel ambitious enough to go around and buy a tree, get all the stuff and decorate it with our non-existent ornaments. So, as I was walking Bailey this morning, I saw some really good branches sitting on the ground and decided to bring it back to use to hang ornaments on. I saw this on some blogs and it looked super cute. I got some cheap ornaments from target and hung a few on the branches this afternoon. It looks cuter in real life (I hope!). Either way, this is a great alternative to cutting down a tree. (hahaha, I just had to say that because all those blogs were like "save a tree, use alternatives to real trees!")<br /><br />p.s. I'm sorry for the bad quality of the picture. I couldn't find my camera cord and had to use my blackberry.Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04684875173121683171noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7490282544595632517.post-6241615176301970002009-11-22T22:13:00.003-05:002009-11-22T22:20:26.294-05:00I'M BAAAAAAAACK<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBGitaFNVCM-ZfhQghhVQ-jcLZOlr7PpkMy_T82MFG-ZMfsXVfiLpx3MhPUV4c1WNP-4lpY0Q8C9S0jwocFd-Vfc9_9o92_SrkWLIt3pAEImRCLvB-r23908yuQdbSzCoTXmmosHKiIlM/s1600/L10048158.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 351px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBGitaFNVCM-ZfhQghhVQ-jcLZOlr7PpkMy_T82MFG-ZMfsXVfiLpx3MhPUV4c1WNP-4lpY0Q8C9S0jwocFd-Vfc9_9o92_SrkWLIt3pAEImRCLvB-r23908yuQdbSzCoTXmmosHKiIlM/s400/L10048158.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5407133091331944690" border="0" /></a><br />life has been crazy the past month. pardon the lack of posts. i'm back and trying to be better!!!<br /><br />I was browsing, my favorite- <a href="http://www.overstock.com/">overstock.com </a>and ran across this <a href="http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Hug-Me-Pillow/1676854/customer-reviews.html">"hug me pillow"</a>.

(even though i haven't lived in DC, but it is so close to me!)Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04684875173121683171noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7490282544595632517.post-13725155926443848092009-09-13T23:57:00.004-04:002009-09-13T23:59:51.824-04:00shopping spree<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTQgIEeHUZR2XctzstWj5QIPV1f2p4bcwrjUNEUajaU2gycZ__rnNBVYohOd2OwjcK1Z1BWCn5v0EjrSszesEl72FWBP2R1e07iSIj7sQ_6ECGdHfdoRCK_hmw9Kmxd8wrkCpO9XJcKV4/s1600-h/img40m.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 363px; height: 363px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTQgIEeHUZR2XctzstWj5QIPV1f2p4bcwrjUNEUajaU2gycZ__rnNBVYohOd2OwjcK1Z1BWCn5v0EjrSszesEl72FWBP2R1e07iSIj7sQ_6ECGdHfdoRCK_hmw9Kmxd8wrkCpO9XJcKV4/s400/img40m.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381167881179524546" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhx0vos8Uerk7tOvU2K_PYixymT1sZaMb0yagKztt8BgJXNwijTrF1mxDjwpa963d-yED02LqJSt30lpuhI5UreAng-SPg_QP8-b5c0GT6Cq18bEt3Cy-rc2ifSPlnIo6NlrlMYTHs6I8Q/s1600-h/0091435_PE227106_S3.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 250px; height: 250px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhx0vos8Uerk7tOvU2K_PYixymT1sZaMb0yagKztt8BgJXNwijTrF1mxDjwpa963d-yED02LqJSt30lpuhI5UreAng-SPg_QP8-b5c0GT6Cq18bEt3Cy-rc2ifSPlnIo6NlrlMYTHs6I8Q/s400/0091435_PE227106_S3.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381167879170060082" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6NXddWSyBEhn4N9qw8mPi15jyLm9HT5gcu9rnoDe1gdat6BK_eRzaF7mPirISUJYRMyH3c9cpE3ADfhBr_BGjeCboZpmJKFIAp4lfgtWm7Kx3cyHtTV06Rpnns1_PlRJXENQ7nB3J5SM/s1600-h/0091401_PE227076_S3.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 250px; height: 250px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6NXddWSyBEhn4N9qw8mPi15jyLm9HT5gcu9rnoDe1gdat6BK_eRzaF7mPirISUJYRMyH3c9cpE3ADfhBr_BGjeCboZpmJKFIAp4lfgtWm7Kx3cyHtTV06Rpnns1_PlRJXENQ7nB3J5SM/s400/0091401_PE227076_S3.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381167517428852242" border="0" /></a>we may not have a tv or couch yet, but we did get these little numbers this weekend.Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04684875173121683171noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7490282544595632517.post-76321735547172814062009-09-08T21:50:00.004-04:002009-09-08T21:59:30.508-04:00Change In PlansWell, the inspection was not so good on our little 1915 home, so we decided to terminate our contract. We decided to sign a lease on an apartment instead. It's a really cool loft type apartment in an old Sears Building! We are most excited about reducing our carbon footprint (we just like to say that all the time because it is SO trendy right now), because it's on a street full of really good restaurants and coffee shops and grocery stores, right outside our door! We move in 2 weeks!! <br /><br />Pictures to come soon :)Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04684875173121683171noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7490282544595632517.post-36727442683151481972009-08-31T22:09:00.003-04:002009-08-31T22:13:20.359-04:00E<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYJqd6sJCs2Y-o0KEvuLSPmdcNoTWl6izwje3EtKdxVsDVsduJ5xJqSPOKWfOCVGd1pWKdPQ83I68AAb8HP2ymr0GRaQZD7BTAxKgQn_g2vpcHNFvg2d0TEE_-hUQswqHnYVeelFpVWvo/s1600-h/il_430xN_69043583.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 362px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376315799713606450" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYJqd6sJCs2Y-o0KEvuLSPmdcNoTWl6izwje3EtKdxVsDVsduJ5xJqSPOKWfOCVGd1pWKdPQ83I68AAb8HP2ymr0GRaQZD7BTAxKgQn_g2vpcHNFvg2d0TEE_-hUQswqHnYVeelFpVWvo/s400/il_430xN_69043583.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjafpp_oIqK3bMBu1IiHKny7aLHOkgAP1xQi0KJd5upLOAx7zcrCgwGHkkzCiaj9zjPJye4gUYRb9gt-aHgeIuilzYOmy2oSGCv07eZ0RnrZxKQeBs2_mEmHdpiC21caROvj1g35zGnsQI/s1600-h/il_430xN_86783463.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 355px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376315793794098178" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjafpp_oIqK3bMBu1IiHKny7aLHOkgAP1xQi0KJd5upLOAx7zcrCgwGHkkzCiaj9zjPJye4gUYRb9gt-aHgeIuilzYOmy2oSGCv07eZ0RnrZxKQeBs2_mEmHdpiC21caROvj1g35zGnsQI/s400/il_430xN_86783463.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div>I love anything with the letter E.

I have been watching it for years, and it is one of my favorite shows on HGTV, so you can imagine how excited I was to see this in the newspaper on Friday....<br /><br /><em><span style="color:#006600;">Calling all Richmond home buyers -- here's your chance to be on national TV.<br />Home & Garden Television's hit series "House Hunters" will be filming in Richmond this season. Series producers are looking for home buyers and real estate agents to appear on the shows.<br />"House Hunters" follows buyers and their agents as they find the right house. The show is looking for buyers who are closing on a home within the next one to two months, including those who are actively bidding on a home or have a newly signed contract.<br />If you live within a 90-minute drive of downtown Richmond and "are fun, enthusiastic and have a great story to tell," in the words of the producers</span></em><br /><em></em><br />So, because I'm loooking in Norfolk and it is exactly 90 minutes away from Richmond, I sent the casting director an email this afternoon. I should have told more about us and sent a "fun and ethusiastic" picture, but this is what I sent her...<br /><br /><em><span style="color:#3333ff;">Sara,</span></em><br /><em><span style="color:#3333ff;">As a regular viewer of House Hunters, I could not have been more excited to hear that you are planning on filming episodes in Richmond this season! My boyfriend and I are from Texas, but we have both ended up in Virginia within the last year. I currently live in Richmond and Nick lives in Norfolk, where he is a Navy Pilot. Nick found out that he is going to be stationed in Norfolk for at least the next 3 years, so I am planning on moving to Norfolk, where we are currently looking at purchasing our first home! <br /><br /></span></em><em><span style="color:#3333ff;"></span></em><em><span style="color:#3333ff;">Norfolk is 90 minutes away from Richmond (so it is JUST within the limit!!), and we are planning on making an offer on a house this week. We love the houses in Norfolk, they have so much charm and character. The houses we are typically looking at are early 1900's houses, and are often recently renovated, but of course there are a lot of houses that need improvement. <br /></span></em><br /><em><span style="color:#3333ff;">Nick and I would love to have the opportunity to share our home buying experience with the rest of the country and show the charm and history you find in Norfolk.<br />Please feel free to contact me, if you would like to talk further!! <br />Thank you Sara! </span></em><br /><em><span style="color:#3333ff;"></span></em><br /><span style="color:#000000;">I have a good feeling about this! Nick and I watched House Hunters tonight so we could be prepared for our show! I hope she emails me back tomorrow!!!!! </span>Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04684875173121683171noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7490282544595632517.post-15264378860212801652009-08-09T17:19:00.002-04:002009-08-09T17:27:53.283-04:00AnnapolisMy dad and I went up to Annapolis yesterday to meet up with Nick and his dad.

I had always seen these types of brushes before, and was always intrigued by them, but she was telling me about how it works wonders on her skin. it was developed by the same people who developed Sonicare. I'm addicted to my Sonicare, and i think that i NEED this. They have the cutest set, pink and gray and it says "mine" on the pink one and "yours" on the gray one. I hope Nick wants one!!!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVRrP7Qb6i7ph-hSITFfhaZ2wc4obbz60WWOP1nwW2LaZZDKYGm6opVUvHIv02orMQPhEPHLe1BsycM4bQoN96VUH4i413OsvHqmoc1VdLpk3mDQGu7_54C62pnW-ptZpsogBRP-EzqDs/s1600-h/twinsKitIncludesMED.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364068358105459666" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 235px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVRrP7Qb6i7ph-hSITFfhaZ2wc4obbz60WWOP1nwW2LaZZDKYGm6opVUvHIv02orMQPhEPHLe1BsycM4bQoN96VUH4i413OsvHqmoc1VdLpk3mDQGu7_54C62pnW-ptZpsogBRP-EzqDs/s400/twinsKitIncludesMED.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div> </div>Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04684875173121683171noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7490282544595632517.post-9160248347967511672009-07-27T23:01:00.007-04:002009-07-27T23:12:10.510-04:00off the market :(<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq1ORbYAtFpHsJho66KI5tsCccfyyhnhL4MhsSk_kQL05DKWRQ408MpULvKps5FLL-4WkoV60ZWWo86quiRjjO_2vbTWwqojuMAFtXxvInBi6acWYcmR5mXV4jXD5-GyCVFm5mGTaYqp0/s1600-h/peterpandduemarried1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363341774111578114" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq1ORbYAtFpHsJho66KI5tsCccfyyhnhL4MhsSk_kQL05DKWRQ408MpULvKps5FLL-4WkoV60ZWWo86quiRjjO_2vbTWwqojuMAFtXxvInBi6acWYcmR5mXV4jXD5-GyCVFm5mGTaYqp0/s400/peterpandduemarried1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1EzPPJgE9fqx7nWGZ87cmMkyxL0VQmlNpNdbpwc0HXshxVMI6Q0-HEQP6c0z4r07BcomtuALftJnIXJ1aDbLACqPySsojE14YQP-EX_8wmtrkG2hpqdhqjClEFbmEb8NRp_tVj5hJwUE/s1600-h/peterKellygrn3_480h.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363341018219920578" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 229px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1EzPPJgE9fqx7nWGZ87cmMkyxL0VQmlNpNdbpwc0HXshxVMI6Q0-HEQP6c0z4r07BcomtuALftJnIXJ1aDbLACqPySsojE14YQP-EX_8wmtrkG2hpqdhqjClEFbmEb8NRp_tVj5hJwUE/s400/peterKellygrn3_480h.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div>sad day in the neighborhood. my one true love, <a href="http://pixyland.org/peterpan/photo_closeups_pp4.htm">pan</a>, is NOW MARRIED!! read more <a href="http://dlisted.com/node/33142">here... </a></div><div></div><div> </div><div> </div><div>i would post a picture of me wearing a tshirt i made with him on it in college, but i look hidi.
