Hey, I thought this would be interesting to see. For Alita’s birthday this past June, I made her a book all about her. It is now a requirement to know about everything in there before you marry her. Alita is one of my closest friends, one of those lifetime, we’ll be friends when we’re grandma’s kinda friends. I have this thing where I like cutting out words and phrases from magazines. Check it – um PS it’s fucking long!

Olivia’s (Real) Birthday Dinner – Nov.10th
12 11 2009Happy Birthday to Olivia!! It’s her 25th birthday, again! I was honored to be invited to the close gathering of friends at an all-you-can-eat and drink Japanese BBQ restaurant on Civic. Fun times!!
Ola with her new Jimmy Choo bag, dreamy! (Flowers from Rachel

Ola holding the coolest Rubix cube ever, from Rachel:


Cresencio was the only one who liked the baby octopus:

Audrey does not like seafood.

Best part of our meal was when the super nice waitor came over and taught us how to cook the rice puffy thing:

Then you dip it in the honey and condensed milk. Notice Ola’s sweet new shirt – Where the Wild Things Are? YES!

Cresencio goes a little over board when it comes to all you can eat. Not only was he a hot mess, but he made Amanda a hot mess too. He’s a nice guy, so he always cleans up his mess:

We killed the shrimp. Unfortunately, we lost some antennae… er.. antlers…

We heart chicken hearts!! Gobble gobble! Amanda came up with the bright idea of taking a picture of the moment somebody eats something too hot, cuz their facial expressions are priceless! Unfortunately, I wasn’t quick enough with the snap.

Happy Brithday to Olivia!!!

Stay tuned for Olivia’s Birthday Party/Nick’s Going Away Party pics Friday!

Birthday Presents – Mel
6 10 2009So, as a laaaaaate birthday present for my pal Mel, I made her a simple bag. Mel’s an organized kinda girl, and she said she liked Bananas. I got a fake banana (like I wore on Day 11 ) and used that as a zipper pull on a light yellow zipper. I thought that was kinda boring and recently watched 7 Things to do with a Banana on HowCast, so I typed out some of the suggestions. I wish I added Tequila Banana!!


Might do some more bigger bags, like duffels. Oh how I love DIY!
