What You Missed...

A little update on what I was doing while I was away from the Internet (as is more and more often this summer!), Instagram-steez.

I spent some time with Daryl Hall and John Oates.

I got major craft inspiration and have been spending all my free moments at home making prototypes. If it goes well, I hope to finally have a booth at ICE Atlanta this November! Can you guess what I'm working on??

Visited the new Morelli's location which just opened in the Edgewood shopping center. I always get the Salted Caramel; Markus prefers the Mexican Chocolate milkshake. It's all real good, either way.

Had an extra special double birthday brunch with 8 of my favorite people.

And finally, finally found a secret source for one of my favorite treats. I last had a taste of these in 2007, when I cleaned out a display in Germany.

Now that we're all up to speed, here is the winner of my little giveaway:

The winner is...

Heather Anne of Scoomer! Congrats!

April Update

As of this evening, all of my final exams, papers, and projects are finally complete. Phew! I feel like a huge weight has been lifted. I'm taking it easy this summer, and it's so weird to think this is my last official school and work free summer I may ever have. I intend to make the most of it--swimming pools, barbeques, and popsicle stands, watch out!

And although I was absent for the majority of the past month, I can't say I spent all of my time being studious. I'm a strong believer in extracurriculars and full social calendars. I thought a photo update would be better than any words:

I completed my photography course at the Showcase School--
the assignments resulted in some interesting shots.

I rubbed elbows with some of the most wonderful people
in Atlanta on the happiest day of their lives.

We held an event at work for One Day Without Shoes with Toms.
I painted this skyline pair at our "Style Your Sole" table.

My favorite gingers threw a pizza party.
What better than celebrating your favorite local joint at home?

In fact, I attended parties galore! This one was especially special.

Assuming I didn't burn myself out, we will be back on a more regular blog rotation for the entire summer, starting tomorrow. Did I mention how much I missed blogging? I never want to leave you guys again!
