Wow - I was just wanting to make my ruffled tube dress and then came across this today...is it a sign?  Have yet to make either - and the holidays are on us :) Must catch up is my mantra
This cute runner is from Tatertots and Jello

You see how nuts I am?!?  Today Gavriella and I had a special outing for one of our favorite meals and time spent at the bookstore - so sad that I sit and "digest" vs. take a brisk walk after eating such a filling (lets undo my button - just while I'm sitting) meal - ahhhhhhh.  
OK - so there we are at our Brand New B&N huge bookstore which has been open less than a year...Thank G-d it finally came...not that the mom & pop shops out here and the awesome used book stores and warehouses don't rock - but when you are TRYING to stay abreast of certain things, the selection and variety is phenomenal at the big chain.  So let me remind you - and myself - that this post had the intention of being about my girly moment while upstairs with Ella in the kids section - which would lead beautifully into my continued rambles on some of my favorite girly childhood toys that I had and/or have always wanted, which would then be a fab segway to finally turn the focus on the main topic - the Cupcake Craze.  I swear one thing just leads to another which then reminds me of ____ and I can't forget _____ which seems totally random but not when I tell you about _____.    Oops! 
Also, the whole time on my hands thing- not so much - crap all over the house - ummmmm yip, but am I HAPPY?!  I can totally zone out and be up for days discovering and creating crafty goodness and all things adorable, fresh, funky and vinatge/mod - lol. Would that be Modage then? UM DUH. Makes perfect sense right?
Oh Yah - I don't mess around and I usually come with Big Plans -BIG - but OY with my daughter under the table painting barbies' body with the remnants of designer makeup from my pre-children/residency days (oh how I miss Sephora) when she should be in bed - and I have a million windows/tabs open on my mac to remind me of one thing or another - including designing this terrible blog and helping me figure out how to streamline everything fresh and clean and sparkly, and did I mention I have a room full of amazing homemade things for kids and boutique clothing I need to get online and move out?! Yah - my priorities are so all over the place when it comes to me and this stuff...

Break - must put Ella down and page DH - turn off the house lights inside and turn on the ones outside etc - and then do a read of my recent bout with diarrhea of the mouth and decide where to go from here :)
