1. All-Mighty Barrettes

I love my dogs so much. I can’t imagine ever owning any other breed, so naturally, I adore All-Mighty, a store dedicated to “the love of Boston Terriers.” They sell everything from onesies, adorable tees & now barrettes! Secretly, I am still a little girl that likes to wear bows in her hair (OK, maybe not such a secret) so these are slaying me! I am definitely buying some, but I am torn: there are so many different styles to choose from (12 to be exact)! What’s a girl to do?? I guess I’ll just have to get them all 😉

Answer in Pictures

While a (very active) member of Livejournal a few years back, I absolutely adored meme’s. I would do as many as humanly possible, which I’m sure annoyed a great deal of my LJ friends. The draw still hasn’t escaped me, because I’ve decided to include them from time to time here on Melificent. Afterall, sometimes I am not in the most journalistic of moods.

So enjoy this fun picture meme and if you feel so inclined, do one yourself!

01. Hello! This is what I look like:

Happy Hump Day: Henry Cavill

6a00d8341c606d53ef0115709f554f970b-800wi

I seriously think the term GQMF was created for Henry Cavill.

The hubs and I just recently got into The Tudors and have been obsessively watching Seasons 1 through 3. I have to say, my mind is frazzled with all the drama and political history, but there sure is eye candy in the form of one Henry Cavill (sorry, Jonathan Rhys-Meyers, you freak me out). Cavill plays Charles Brandon, the Duke of Suffolk who is a close friend of the King’s and a member of his council. I am completely serious when I say that I don’t think I’ve ever laid eyes on someone more handsome. Even the hubs has to give him props for being “one good looking dude.” So enjoy this lovely picspam, ladies, and let me know if you agree with me 😉

Looking Forward to Fall

I don’t think it’s a secret: I love TV. A lot. The hubs and I have quite the DVR queue and we are proud to list off all our favorite shows, often to other’s complete horror. It’s hard to believe that a few years ago, I never watched TV. In fact, the only way I would get hooked on a series was if a friend let me borrow their DVD’s. Now I can’t live without it! There really is nothing like coming home, cracking open a beer and disconnecting from reality for a good few hours.

That brings me to summer. Summer is usually an amazing time filled with sun, fun and friends. But it is a terrible time for an avid TV watcher: no new shows. I have to admit, it’s been pretty difficult. We’ve had to fill the void by adding new series to our Netflix queue (The Tudors, Mad Men, Flight of the Conchords, etc.), but it just isn’t the same. I miss my shows. And thankfully the wait is almost over (well, except for LOST)! September is right around the corner and with it brings new programming!

What am I the most pumped for?

Weekend Highlights!

friday1district9tease

On Friday night, we joined friends to see District-9. I had very high expectations (I think I’ve spoken about this movie a million times on the blog!), and I am so happy to say that they met and at times, exceeded them. I thought it was such a beautiful film. I’ve heard some negativity towards the film, but I think that’s due to people having a set idea of what to expect. This movie is not what you think and that’s what makes it so wonderful!
