We are headed to the UK for today's Whatta … [Read more...]

DIY Decorative Jars

Doing crafts doesn't have to be a hard or involved process. And sometimes crafts can require you to do online shopping for supplies. That's what I love about these jars.

Last week 2 guys names Chris battled it out.  It appears that you guys love you some Thor because Chris Hemsworth won. I have successfully been wrong at guessing the winner 90% of the time.  I apparently don't know "hot".   However, moving forward, this week is going to be completely unfair. And it kinda breaks my heart. But … [Read more...]

Whatta Man Monday ~ The Chris Edition!!

G'Day USA Australia Week 2009 Black Tie Gala - Arrivals

I've been seeing a lot of trailers lately for the movie This Means War.   And maybe it's not Oscar material, but I do love a predictable, over the top rom com.  Especially one with TWO cutie pies.   Anyhow, the movie trailers have reminded me of Chris Pine's complete adorableness, which led me to the realization that there … [Read more...]
