Yeasayer

Have you heard of this indie hipster band? I am always so behind in the hot new tunes these days, so you probably have. But if not, I'm currently loving the songs One and I Remember. These kids will also be preforming at ACL fest!

Manic Monday

I have been procrastinating again, and now I have a 10 page paper to write that is due tomorrow morning. It will get done, because it has to, but that doesn't make it any less dreadful. If only there was Gossip Girl on tonight to look forward to.

Cookbooks

I think cookbooks are great; great presents, great decoration for your kitchen, great inspiration and ideas for meals, treats, etc. My new favorite cookbook is not a cookbook. It's a website, smittenkitchen.com, upon discovering this website I'm realizing with the world wide web there is hardly any need for cookbooks other than decoration! The internet is a virtual cookbook with bazillions of recipes at your fingertips!

love love love

Love this website! I have been a long time fan of the 'keep calm and carry on' poster, but suddenly I feel like everyone has it and I want something different. Now thanks to Keep Calm Gallery I have many other options. This gallery is full of great posters with cute messages, and vintage feel.

summer songs

I love how hearing a song takes you back to a moment, or time in your life. Listening to Faith Hill's Breathe album always takes me back to a road trip my family took to Lake Powell. So random, but I love the way songs attach meanings in your head and can take you back instantly. Last summer I was listening to Heartbreaker by MSTRKRFT & Happy Up Here by Royksopp on repeat. Whenever I hear them I remember driving around in my friend Steffanie's Land Rover, with barely any air conditioning, in anticipation for what the summer night would bring us. This summer, Steffanie has yet to arrive in Boulder, but I'm already trying to figure out what song's will be this summer anthem. Here are a few options...

I And Love And Yous - Avett Brothers

Home - Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros

Sing Sang Sung - Air

Cooler Tan Me - Mike Posner

Bulletproof (Nacey Remix ft. Matt Hemerlien)

...more to come...

shocked

Sometimes I am so shocked by the pricing of ugly things. Here is an example.

This website analyzes the names of blogs. I don't know if I agree with what it says about my blog but regardless it's a fun site to play with! Here is what it said about this blog's name:

ESFP - The Performers

The entertaining and friendly type. They are especially attuned to pleasure and beauty and like to fill their surroundings with soft fabrics, bright colors and sweet smells. They live in the present moment and don´t like to plan ahead - they are always in risk of exhausting themselves.

They enjoy work that makes them able to help other people in a concrete and visible way. They tend to avoid conflicts and rarely initiate confrontation - qualities that can make it hard for them in management positions.

Banana Phone

During our drive back to San Francisco we had bananas lying around the car that we picked up from the hotel lobby on our way out. The joke that kept coming back was pretending it was a phone, with that on my mind, it's so fitting that I came across this today: an actual banana phone!

This weekend was beyond amazing. Unexpected adventures with some of my best friends, I love being able to escape for the weekend and love that my friends are always happy to have me and host my vacation!

{Ladies on Lombard}

{Unexpected Pool Party, Shannon & I}

{The whole group + a random coug}

{My bestie Brennan who flew in to surprise the girls with me, yes that is a $500 chip}

{Lady A}

{Tahoe Sky}

{Mr. Tim McGraw}

{Lake Tahoe}

P.S. Apologies for the not so great pictures, my camera was definitely not on it's A game!

Happy Tuesday! Hope you had as much fun this weekend as I did, but unfortunately I doubt you did. I'll post some highlights tomorrow, but for now a BIG thank you to I Heart You! I won the Juicy giveaway! What a fabulous way to start the week!
