Stupid Royal Wedding.

I Want To Get Married All Over Again.


If you know me you get the fact that I could care less about celebrity news, but secretly I think this Royal Wedding stuff was kind of fun. 
*I can't believe I admitted that.
This Cate Middleton's dress... 
her hair...
 Cartier diamond crown, [oh, my!] 
was gratifying in some fantastical way. 

These were my favorite stills that I caught on t.v.


The dress: funny thing is, her dress was almost exactly what I had envisioned for my big day, (but unlike this Duchess, I didn't quite have the budget to have it become a reality.) 
Ms. Alexander McQueen designer I know I really beat you to it.


 The reception dress:  
She's so stinking adorable. 


The car: I love vintage cars. 
 1969 Aston Martin in classic navy. Dreamy.

Yes, I buy products simply because of the packaging.

I just could not help but ooh! and ahh! in front of the refrigerated section of Sprouts a few days ago as I stumbled upon this little gem of dairy delight. I mean, for heaven's sake! How brilliant was this marketing team? The typography is clean, and the artwork fresh; it's easy to want to fork out $1.99 based on the design alone. Who cares what it tastes like- it's pretty!


Oh, and chew on this: Siggi's traditional Icelandic-thick style yogurt contains no high-fructose corn syrup and most importantly comes from skim milk from grass-fed cows not treated with rBGH. Did I almost forget to mention its eco-friendly label? Simply pull on the backside tab and the label comes free, and ready to recycle.
I bought every flavor they had. Ador-bs!

Amazon Universal Wish List Tab

If you're anything like me you can be perusing great websites with every intention to make note of great things you may want to buy, only to get side-tracked, move on, and clearly forget about one great thing as you move on to the next. Well, Amazon has just come up with the perfect solution- a universal wish list tab you install in your toolbar, (my husband abhors toolbars, but I personally use them all of the time!) This tool allows you to track all the things you see and like, (like you currently do on Amazon.com) but with just a click of their little button- it literally works with any website. Brilliant!

My poor wish list is looking more and more like a wish library. How about you? Happy shopping!

Wannabe Introduction




This is me.  Alright, I am all of four, quite possibly five in this picture, but in essence this is me; and this my attempt at a new blog. (And I still have the bangs to prove it).

This blog will feature all the fabulous or UN-fabulous daily adventures of a wannabe blogger, daughter, wife, friend, cook, baker, green thumb, keeper of the home, creator, scribe, bibliophile, outstanding citizen, a working Professional, and perpetual dreamer; pretty much, well, everything

This is me; a wannabe.
