So British

I just really want to move to the UK.

It has EVERYTHING I love.

the accents. the words. the bands. the men. the architecture.
 the cobblestone roads. the buildings. the beach. 

England would probably be my first choice--and not just because B.Cumberbatch is there. ;)

It's just so darn beautiful. I could definitely be happy there.

Sigh, for now, I guess I'll just have to settle with watching BBC, 

dropping more British words into my vocabulary, and pouring myself a cuppa.

Colorful Cookies

I wanted to make something fun for my girls-night-in a few weeks ago, and when I saw these colorful cookies from Sally's Baking Addiction, I knew I had to make them!

I had just opened my package from Lisa Leonard earlier and my gold pinwheels made the perfect topper! So fun!

I LOVE mint anything, so I also added mint frosting in-between for a delish cookie sandwich! YUM!

Inked Chevrons Illustrations on Etsy

 So I've recently opened up my Etsy shop again! YAY! Go over and check it out!

I just added a bunch of listings--it's FUN! Also, if you follow the facebook page, there's a promo going on where you can get a FREE graphic print with any purchase! WHOO!

really wishing i was here this week. . .

benedict cumberbatch is a babe

After seeing him perfect his role in the new Star Trek film, 

I finally took my good friends advice to queue Sherlock on Netflix. 

W.O.W. He is incredible.

And not only is he a remarkable actor; but he is a humble,

gorgeous, Brit. What more do you need?

He has beat Chris{Pine} on my list of 

Celebrities I'd Like to Marry.

That is really saying something. I've been in love

with Chris since Princess Diaries 2, so for a

newbie to swoop in and steal Chris' place must

mean he is pretty fantastic. 

And, oh boy, he. is.

I'm happy to join this fandom. A Cumberbitch, Cumberbabe, or just one Cumbercookie in the full Cumberbatch--I'll be part of the CumberCollective forever.

{our marriage will be perfect.}

the blog of happiness

hello.

i've decided to come back to the world of blogging! 

i made the excuse that i got too quote un-quote "busy" and stopped blogging for a while.

the truth is though, i was a little discouraged and depressed with my life and couldn't think of anything to blog about. i would tell myself i'm not as good as the amazing bloggers i follow. i would think too much about who would be reading my blog, who i might offend, who might see me for who i really am.

so silly.

because honestly, i blog for me. blogs make me happy. and i've decided to fill my life with things that make me happy--no matter what other people think.

you may not be able to pin-point me into a specific group, because really--i don't fit into any ONE group. I try to try new things, i try to pull things i like from every category of people and put them into my life.

and that's okay.

for a while i had an identity crisis and thought that if i didn't choose one group to fit in to, then I was in a group all on my own--and that is lonely. But, what i just figured out two minutes ago, is that I am lucky--because i'm not in a group all on my own; i fit into many different groups. i can learn from a lot of different people and enjoy many friends.

i can't stress myself out worrying about blogging every day, or blogging incredible things every time. this blog is supposed to be FUN--that was how it started and then it turned into a job that i quickly quit--because i don't have time for two jobs--but I DO have time to fill my life with happiness and do things i love.

this blog has a new look--and a new me. it will be filled with honest words, happiness, everyday life, and love.

and can't we all use a little of that in our life?
