More Flowers...Again

How cool is this arrangement my family bought me for graduation?



I'm not sure what any of these flowers even are, but I love them. Apparently my mom told the florist something like:
"Make it weird! My daughter is not a rose carnation kind of girl."
She's right.

Confession #4: Gluttony

The following is a list of where my money was spent on my last credit card statement, in order:

Barnes & Noble
Wendy's
The Olive Garden
Chili's
Dino's Sports Bar
Chili's
The Olive Garden
Sheetz (for an MTO not gasoline)
Sunoco (for gasoline)

I am sensing a trend.

Am I a foodie? I hate the word foodie.

I'll take one of these

I found the recipe for this heavenly looking thing on Pinterest (which I JUST joined and really don't understand how to use yet. I'm working on it).

Honey Cloud Pancakes. Oh my.



Follow this link to Things We Make for the recipe! I will be making this and I will let you know how it goes.

Any recipes you've been dying to try, readers? Please share!

This is Justin Timberlake. That is all.


Help a Girl Out

I don't know how many others have experimented with the nail sticker polish things...but they really do work! This set I bought for $3 at Five Below months ago:



Unfortunately, Five Below has a sparse selection of patterns. This was my favorite one there, and it seems it has disappeared.


Sally Hansen Salon Effects makes them in a lot of really cool patterns, but I just don't know if I am willing to shell out $10 for nail stickers. Has anyone tried these? Do they last?



Better yet, has anyone found a brand that makes cool patterns at a more affordable price? Help a girl out.

Girls

Twenty Something blog post promoting new HBO television show about twenty-something girls. Yes, I think so.



 HBO's Girls is written, directed, co-executive produced, and starring a twenty-something girl--Lena Dunham. This makes me so happy I could scream. She's this one:




This show is funny and brutally honest. A bit exaggerated at times, but I like that. Because what twenty-something girl doesn't feel like the escapades and proclamations of their girlfriends aren't a bit overblown at times? They are.

The girls on the show are educated college grads/students. They are intellectuals, yet they don't know when to stop talking to the booty-call guy. The kinky sex guy. Ew, yeah that guy.

WARNING: As a huge Sex and the City fan I will say that Girls is a different kind of....well set of girls. The ladies of Sex and the City are just that--ladies.




The foursome of Girls are in their early twenties and are still trying to decide what they want and who they want to be. They're awkward and dysfunctional and perfect.
