Limeade!

We took a trip to Whole Foods and Nick had the super idea to make some limeade with the juicer. Here is what I learned : peeling limes is hard!! I'm going as far as saying impossible. As you can see, I had to cut the rind off of them. I wish I could say that all of this hard work was worth it because I had the delicious limeade to drink but for some reason this just didn't work. I guess the limes weren't ready.. I don't know. Maybe I'll try lemonade next.

Today is my 6 year anniversary!!!

Yes it is! I am very happy. Babe I love you!!! Here is our Valentines Day 2010 photo.. we didn't even plan it .. we just both naturally go for the tongue-out-stupid-face.

Nick's mom Nancy got us a kewl present from Dubai... or somewhere around there. It's a case.. well I don't know if case is the right word.. it's a holder? ... for our marriage license. We don't have one yet but now when we get one we will have the perfect place to stick it!

 

I recently attended a one day makeup course here provided by Last Looks Makeup Academy. I have been really excited about doing this for a while. So its too bad that it was a major buzzkill. The lady that instructed the course was nuts. She was pretty unprofessional the majority of the class and I didn't really learn anything that I couldn't have googled on my own. I can say that I got some pretty good hands on experience and NONE of it was ideal. But I think that's ok because that is what the real world is going to be like... completely unpredictable and sucky and old ladies with wrinkly/sweaty eyelids! It was a good lesson in that sense but I feel like good customer service is a thing of the past. I'm not even going to lie and say that I'm nice to all of my customers at work. Just the ones I like. It is what it is, I guess.

In other news, Nick and I went to see The Wolfman and I LOVED this film. Please go see it. 

 

 I wanna do this guys makeup!

You choo-choo-choose me?

I created this blog a while back knowing that the posts would probably be few and far between. I don't really stray from my daily routine enough for interesting things to happen to me. BUT! I happen to have THE BEST boyfriend ever. This blog would never even have potential if it weren't for the pictures that I can take with the awesome camera that he got me for Christmas. AND to get to the point of this entry.. I got my Valentines 2010 gift early: A Waring JEX450 Juicer!!

 

 

I love this thing. It is HUGE. You can stick entire apples/carrots/cucumber/celery bunches in it. So today was my first juicing sesh and it was awesome. Fresh apple juice is really good. Mix it with fresh carrot juice and it's really really good! Fresh carrot juice alone.. not really as good. But it's so fun. And drinking freshly juiced juice is so healthy. I can't wait to buy a bag of grapefruit this weekend and juice those babies. And I was thinking of making a carrot cake with all the pulp that's left over. We'll see! The possibilities are endless!
