Green With Envy...

I am green with envy that I do not own this Alice + Olivia Pleated Puff Dress. It's a little Carrie Bradshaw, but much more wearable. I think this dress would be so great for summer weddings or a trip to New York City.

*sigh*

Tune In Tonight!

Now I am not getting paid to advertise this show (unless you count living on Elon's salary as getting paid) but if you like country music, and love competition, then please tune in tonight to NBC. Elon left four days after our wedding to work on the show and has been gone for close to three weeks already (to return again in August), so being the good wife that I am, I am trying to support him and all his hard work. Thanks Ya'll!

Song of the Week: When You Wish Upon A Star

This song is dedicated to the lovely bride to be Shelby. We are celebrating her bachelorette party this weekend at the happiest place on earth. You guessed right, DISNEYLAND!!! This song and video make me smile, just like Shelby! You can get the CD here. Happy Monday!

Forever Frugal (And Yummy) Friday

Somebody at Forever 21 has done a beautiful thing! They have brought cupcakes to Forever 21, and I definitely need to add this book to my collection. I have not personally browsed through this Cupcakes Galore by Gail Wagman cookbook, but I am pretty sure that it is fabulous. Over 100 cupcake recipes to try out on your friends, co-workers, lovah, whoever really. It is sure to make you a hit around town. So throw on your cutest apron and get baking!

Wino Wednesday

To continue on with our mini moon wine tour, I present the second stop of our private tour. After leaving Sunstone Winery, we enjoyed a beautiful, but short scenic drive to Roblar Winery.

Roblar was quite different from Sunstone. Newly opened a little over a year ago and absolutely beautiful and calming. I felt like we had been transported to Colorado or another mountain town based off the building structure.

Upon entering the winery, you are greeted with a high ceiling, and round tasting area great for mingling and really getting to take everything in. The chandelier overhead was massive and impressive.

Absolutely beautiful, so open and comfy. I knew that this place was instantly going to go down in my books as a favorite. The staff was very knowledgeable about all the wines and also informed Elon and I that they offer cooking classes with wine pairings as well. SOLD! We sampled six or seven wines here and decided to take the Syrah back with us. It was deliciously fruity, low in the tannin department and definitely has even greater potential to grow with a few years of sitting on our wine rack. Roblar offers a VIP tasting room for all wine club members and a discount for all the gourmet cooking classes.

While I think we decided on Sunstone for our wine club, you better believe I will be signing up to take a cooking class next time I am in town.

SATC

One word to describe this movie....INCREDIBLE. I loved all 148 minutes of it. I laughed so hard I cried, I teared up another three times. I loved it so much I am considering seeing it again....Yahoo!

Song of the Week: Back to Life

">
Last Tuesday I was listening to my Itunes at work when Back to Life by Soul II Soul began playing. I laughed out loud because the initial lyrics, "Back to life, back to reality" couldn't BE more appropriate for my life right now.

After over a year of planning the wedding and all the bliss that is associated with a wedding, it is time for me to get back to life as it was. Back to work, back to taking the dog out at 6:30 AM, back to cleaning the house...the bonus though, I can now do all these things as a married woman!
