Big Chill Appliances
1. Big Chill Appliances

The new trend in kitchens seems to be moving away from the modern stainless steel and inching closer to the retro throw back as seen with Big Chill’s colorful vintage appliances. Big Chill offers fridges, ovens and dishwashers in a rainbow of colors at a very hefty price. I, for one, am a huge fan of retro kitsch (I hope to have a checkerboard kitchen floor one day) so I would love to have one of these puppies (in that delicious candy apple red). Too bad I’ll have to win the lottery first so I’ll just admire from afar. Sigh.

1. My New Macbook!

Number one this Friday has got to be my brand new, sparkling Macbook! I am sure I have the best hubby in the world – he is always thinking of me and what would make me happy. Boy, was he right on the money! I couldn’t be happier being able to blog from any corner of my house and have lightning speed Internet. I am in love. I can’t wait to further customize it and call it my own 🙂

Tonight we are hosting a RockBand party at our pad. We are encouraging guests to dress in their best rock duds and bring their shredding skills as they live out their rockstar fantasies as only modern technology can provide. Although I am not going all out like I did for my 27th Rockstar Birthday Extravaganza, it should be fun to dress up, take some crazy ringlight photos and jam with our best friends. I will be sure to post all the pictures come Monday morning, promise. 😉

Circus Love

For those of you that haven’t followed my online presence throughout the years, I was a very active “knottie” that enjoyed planning my wedding during my 2-year engagement. I really really loved it. To the point that I considered at one point (& sometimes still do) making wedding planning and coordination a career. It’s the reason I still find myself lusting after events like these.

Adam & Halli’s wedding was something out of an Anthropologie catalog somehow without being pretentious. They created an old school circus feel for their wedding from their attire to their location to their decor. The attention to detail was outstanding – from Halli’s “Till Death Do Us Part” tee for their rehearsal to the adorable kissing booth during the reception. It is a  party planner’s dream come true.

So for those of you that read my blog and are currently planning a wedding, definitely click here to see all the photos from their amazing photographer. You will be flooded with inspiration! And if I were to get married all over again, I would love my shindig to look as effortlessly flawless as this adorable backyard wedding.

Again, late on this bandwagon, huh? Augi and I don’t have HBO, but we heard quite a lot about this series will the first season was airing last year. Everyone told us we would love it since we are both pretty big vampire fans so we made sure to kick it up to the top of our Netflix queue when Season 1 was released on DVD last week. We are hooked! The 3rd DVD just arrived last night and we are gobbling them up! I have to say I was kind of disappointed with the pilot, but the episodes have gotten progressively better and now there is no turning back! Right now I think I am in the massive minority when I say that I favor Sam over Bill?
