Ahhhhmazing....

Just got the March issue of Vogue and more than the clothes this time, this house blew me away. I super love it!

This is the house of Christopher and Suzanne Sharp, founders of The Rug Company (hence the unbelievably beautiful rugs in their home).

I love the bold colors in their home and the mix of modern, ethnic and country - right up my alley.

Check out the article and slideshow here.

My Hockey Hero of the Moment

Ryan Miller, Goalie for the Buffalo Sabres and Goalie for the USA Hockey Team. Wonderful goal tending against Canada today, it was an amazing game and USA won 5-3.

I am pumped to skate tomorrow night!

A Week in the Life

Friday always seems to sneak up on me and before I know it, it's here! It is not like I have been super busy either, honestly!

Here is a quick recap of my week:

• Monday - worked and then went Ice Skating after work (we have been skating Saturday nights and Monday nights). Watched Olympics.
• Tuesday - worked and Tim made dinner, you read it right, TIM made dinner. Watched Olympics.
• Wednesday - celebrated Mass for Ash Wednesday and received my ashes (the largest cross on my forehead I have ever gotten). Started a 7 Day Cleanse for the first week of Lent to clean out my system (so far so good). Watched Olympics.
• Thursday - worked, had the biggest headache I have ever had in my life from lack of caffeine. Watched Olympics.
• Friday - work, housewarming party for coworker and then home. Watch Olympics.

Hope everyone had a more eventful week than I did.
Enjoy your weekend!

Happy Valentine's Day

Easy Valentine's Day Gift for Your Man

Here is a quick and easy and somewhat inexpensive way to treat your man to something special on Valentine's Day.
Cover a 6 pk cardboard carrier with colored paper (my man can handle pink plus I didn't have red). You can write on it, add XO's, hearts, etc. If you are super creative with the computer, you could design your own beer label (I did not have time for this and figured this is going to be recycled anyway).
Purchase mixed bottles of beer that you know he has been wanting to try or might enjoy.
Add funny little sayings with key beer words on each bottle for example....

• Kiss me...I'll kiss you bock
• Let's Celebrator together (if you use Celebrator beer, I had to because of the cute charm on it!)
• I'm nutty for you
• Hoppy Valentine's Day

You get the point, I am sure you can come up with better sayings than these.
My plan is to get up early on Sunday and leave this on his bedside table so when he wakes it is there, the only problem that may arise is the little fuzzy blue monster that lives with us may be very tempted by the charm and the little flags around the bottles.

I have posted about the World's Smallest Postal Service in the past, but saw these Valentine's and couldn't resist posting about it again.

They are super cute!
