{Knocks at door}

Bonjour?
Ugh, how can the store be locked, our appointment was 15 minutes ago.
I have stolen treasures from my rotten ex-boyfriend I must fence and that man across the street is staring at me. I have no idea why, I don’t look suspicious at all. I’m the picture of discretion. Perhaps, he is admiring me. Of course! Look how stylish I am! I’m part Grace Kelly and part Hitchcock heroine. How could that worthless prick possibly cheat on this? Bastard.
It’s ok, I’ll be getting my revenge, if this fool ever opens the door.
God, I have to pee. I do look fabulous though.

Happy Weekend.

I thought this week was never going to end. EVER. At least there were lots of good things (designing a childrens’ book, making chili, watching Halloween) mixed in with the not so good.

This Weekend:
• Craft Night!
• make a trip to the dog park
• catch up phone call with L
• enjoy some pool time

NOTE: One last reminder that you have until Monday at 9am CST to enter the oh, hello friend giveaway to win a gift pack from Danni!

Happy Weekend!

The Daily Eat: Grilled Cheese with Fresh Cherries + Cherry Roundup.

I have exactly two things to say about this scrumptious looking Grilled Cheese with Fresh Cherries recipe.

1. What an unlikely pair that I’m now dying to try.
2. I now really want to eat a grilled cheese sandwich with cherries for lunch!
