Heart of Gold

Add it to the list of crafting fails...

Perhaps I need a sewing lesson...

Antoine Dodson, Casey Anthony, and OJ Simpson walk into a bar...

Can I get a hells yeah???

AMEN.

PRISON MIKE.

I love it when Jim calls Dwight "buddy."

I love it when Michael did his impressions.

I love it when The Office would come on Hulu friday mornings...

So hurry up and come back. And miss you Prison Mike.

My Shark week cupcake fail

Thought it would be a good idea to make some shark week cupcakes...
This was my inspiration:

This is what I made:

FAIL.

So... not a success. Apparently twinkies don't want to be dipped into greyish chocolate. And aparently as much as I like to bake, it does not make me any good. 

So I salvaged as much as I could from the somewhat expensive ordeal and made a few shark fins.  Those are barbie arms reaching out for dramatic effect (left over from a barbie cake- also a disaster)

Whatever...

UPDATE: Got a tweet from the official Shark Week twitter. YES!
More fail: I showed my mother a picture of this cake and she was so mortified that I spent money on such a catastrophe. 

Penguin LOVE

True story:
When I was younger, I used to visit my grandmother in DC in the summer for a few weeks. We would always go to the zoo and one time, I got a stuffed penguin from the gift shop which I affectionately named Iceberg. I've had this penguin for MANY years, all through childhood, and even dragged him along to college where he kindly never judged my actions. We all have that stuffed animal or what have you that has seen more birthdays that Fred Willard's Smuckers jars.

A few weeks back, my roommate was in DC for uber important stuff and got me a stuffed baby penguin at the gift shop. It's one of the sweetest things I've ever received and so ironic that both penguins are from the same place. I named him Ice-cube.

So here's to the adults out there with a stuffed animal still gracing their bed. And to sweet roommates.

Iceberg and Ice-cube

Ron Swanson Paper Doll

Now, you can have your very own Ron Swanson.

HUGE ICEBERG.

Not since Titanic has an iceberg seemed so big...

Dear boys at bars,

Love,
Lola

P.S. No, I will not go out with you.

Please don't rain on my parade.

This is most days for me.

birdie

Dwight love.

Life is the longest thing you'll ever do...

True story.

Sons of Anarchy - "Forever young" (by Audra Mae)

This song is so hauntingly beautiful... And slightly addicted to the show right now too.

Facebook Ad fail

Somehow Heath Ledger's Joker doesn't exactly scream appropriate image for drug abuse counseling... Too soon, FB, too soon...

Why sooo serious? Because you're in rehab!

Goose Parade!

I love the one man percussionist bringing up the caboose. This made my day.

Kenny Powers, MFCEO of K-Swiss

I've been cracking up to this ALL week. Hilarious. I think it's amazing that K-Swiss had the courage and awesomeness to go along with this. Obviously NSFW but it's still funny.

The ocean is my only medication

Took these pictures in my friend's awesome sail boat, The Patience.

 Yes, I did stand on the bow and re-enact the scene from Titanic... Don't judge.

 Check out those beautiful Portland skies...

I love pretty things.
