BLOND

One Day I Went to Work.......

Well I've been working on a Commercial for "What Next Utah", It's been fun because I got to work with a lot of my friends and I made some friends.

We attracted ALOT of attention with our car, and when the 100th person stopped by to ask what we were doing, I told them "Well I'm driving to Anchrage, what are you doing?"


My friend Justin climbing down off the top of our car, I was sooooooo glad that wasn't my job. I hate heights SOOOOO much, especially when they involve ladders.


Getting ready to drive my sweet awesome car to Anchorage.


This is us filming, I was on crowd control during filming.... I got yelled at a lot and I yelled a lot back. According to my boss, I am not a people person.

This is not the commerical we were filming today, this is an older one but you get the idea.

Vintage and Fabulous

So I have been setting up our new house and I bought a sofa today, I've been searching antique stores for a vintage, sophisticated, sofa from between the 20's and 60's and today I found it and bought it on the spot!!! Though later I may reupholster my velvet, vintage, golden green, marvel, for now I think IT LOOKS MARVELOUS.

When I throw my "CHRIS IS HOME" BBQ in our back yard, you can all come and bask in it's unadulterated, ancient, awesomeness.

Blond once again...

So I'm going blond once again. This is the first step in a 3 step process. In the next six weeks I'll go blonder and blonder. Right now my hair is very stripey. I pretty much look like a tiger.

George Nakashima the first in a long line of loves.

I have been decorating our house and I never knew before how utterly ridiculous, and unrealistic my taste in furniture and decor is. After my first sad look around RC Willey I swore to myself an oath to never enter it again, and I began my search in antique shops. Some how no matter what it is in the shop I manage to find the most outlandishly priced object and fall in love.

Here for you to see, is the object of my first surreal and unhealthy romance with furniture, and his name is George Nakashima.

I did not try to buy this exact table but a table extremely similar. You should have seen the sales women's face when I asked for the price, she told me 100,000 dollars! And for a delusional 24 hour period I considered selling my kidney on the black market so I could buy it. The least expensive version of this table I can find is 800$ and it breaks my heart but I had to let it go.

My next delusional, hopeless love affair was a with a rug, a extremely expensive, gorgeous 8,000$ rug but that is a sad, sad, story for another time.

Things that happen in provo......

I don't know these people but I really think we'd get along.

ONE SUMMER DAY....Tabitha Came For a Visit

First BBQ of the Summer!!!
Tabitha came for a visit. And we spent a wonderful evening playing babminton and eating outside. Tatjanna's fiance Scott, Katrice's friend Dewey, Anne and Jennifer. We talked about James Bond mountain climbing and had a general good time.


Anne, Jen and Tat


Tatjanna looking lovely as always


Tabitha the guest of honor

Michelle's Gorgeous Baby Shower

This chocolate mouse was delicious.


We made sweet little paper cut outs of Alice In Wonderland that went along with the Garden Tea Party theme.

These were amazingly delicious strawberry vanilla cupcakes.




Some of my flower arrangements.

Busy Days I Have........

Saturday was amazing and made me so happy.
First was the Bijou Market with Emily Sparks, I got up at 7:00 and went to set up our booth.

These pillows were some of my favorite things at the BiJou!! I really want the orange and green one for my new apartment.

I couldn't stay long because I had Michelle's Baby shower and Tabitha's BBQ, and I was moving into our apartment. pictures to follow soon.

FABRIC!!!!!

My Mother, Kayla and Katrice were in the fabric district in L.A. and brought me home some presents!!!! I'm so excited to make aprons and blankets for the Bijou Market. And maybe some pillows and new duvet for my apartment.

My favorite chocolate delights

These Cookies Have No Name: unless you count the one I gave them "Addictive Chocolate Delights From Heaven Above"
One Pkg Ritz Crackers
Creamy Peanut Butter
Melted Milk Chocolate ( takes more then you think just get a brick or large bag of chocolate chips to be safe)
makes about 16 cookies

Make a sandwich out of the ritz crackers with a generous amount of peanut butter.
Place wax paper on a tray, dip sandwiches in the chocolate and place on tray fully
covered in chocolate, the thicker the chocolate the better!!! then place in freezer for at least an hour.

Melt chocolate in double boiler pan or in the microwave on defrost, defrost on 1 minute increments until melted.
