- This blog is adorable.
- My favorite version of Letting the Cables Sleep.
- Just placed a custom order for an illustration of us. So sweet!
- The hubs ordered a Zumi Digi cam over the weekend. Can’t wait to play!
- Sweetest dress ever from Lulu’s.
- Mute Math is touring in support of 30 Seconds to Mars & I got tickets for their Miami Beach show: overjoyed!
- Design a Muse tour poster & win a VIP package to their show in Portland plus a new Apple iPad! We are entering fer sure.

1. 1st Volume of the Pumpkins' Teargarden by Kaleidyscope

1. 1st Volume of the Pumpkins' Teargarden by Kaleidyscope

I know that I had mentioned that I was mad at Billy Corgan for his “relationship” with Jessica Simpson (he now states he was only spending time with her because he was doing the theme song for her new VH1 show…hmph), but I can never be mad at his music. So far, the two new releases off the Smashing Pumpkins’ new album, Teargarden by Kaleidyscope, have been amazing as usual. They are being released for free (you can download them here), but knowing that there will be those rabid fans that need a physical release to cherish for years, Corgan decided to have special edition box sets. The first one will be available on April 20th and is now available for pre-order. Each box contains a 4-song CD, a 7″ vinyl single (containing a new song and a B-Side), and a hand-carved “leopard stone” obelisk, about 2″ tall, similar to marble (??). You know I’ll be placing my order!

So after incessantly guessing what my Valentine’s Day surprise could be, my husband caved and gave it to me last weekend! That’s right, I got my pretty little Fujifilm Instax Mini!!! I am so thrilled. He’s the best hubby ever! Plus, he assures me I have more gifts to open on Valentine’s Day so I didn’t spoil it completely. ;)

I’ve started to play with it a little, but I’m really excited to put it to use at some of the photoshoots the hubs and I will be doing in the next couple of weeks. It definitely gets a lot of attention when I pull it out of my purse but since film is so expensive, I try to tuck it back in there after a couple of shots. It requires a lot of self control ;)

I do hope to have a whole series to share with you once I’ve played with it longer!

What would you like to see me take shots of with my new Instax Mini?

xoxo

1. This incredible cake

1. This incredible cake

As most of you know, my blog will be one year old next week. When I first started blogging, I never imagined that anyone would really care to read about my life and the things I like to do, wear, see and hear. Now, I average about 300 hits a day. I know that does not make me the next Dooce or anything, but it is definitely more than I ever expected. I was kind of bummed because all the projects I had planned for my anniversary either fell through or just didn’t happen because of time restraints and then my friend Rosie shows up with this amazing cake! She is always one of the first to comment and is always singing my praises all over the Internets. She is really the sweetest and most incredible person. So thank you so much, Rosie! I know I told you a million times, but you made my month and totally caught me off guard! I heart you :)

1. Fuji Instax Camera

1. Fuji Instax Camera

I’m usually not into loving fad-ish cameras, but this one really got suckered me good. Although Polaroid is back with a vengeance, I can’t help but love the Fuji Instax. It’s adorably cute and helps you capture the moment instantly in fun bite-sized photos that you can put anywhere. My favorite uses of these pictures? These adorable wall collages. Hello, lover! ;)
