Monday’s Musings

Feb 6, 2012

This weekend my diet consisted of Pizza (twice), Chick-Fila, Nachos, and Homemade Big Macs. That is right I ate like a fat kid this weekend. My sister and her husband came over Saturday night and cooked us the Homemade Big Macs via Pinterest and they were amazing. The sauce tasted just like the real kind.




Then after our Big Mac’s we watched several episodes of the show Oddities on Discovery Channel. Please tell me someone else has watched this before. It is about these people that own a shop called Obscura in NYC and they sell the weirdest things like sculptures out of fingernails, mummified private parts and animal fetuses. I know you are thinking why the heck were you watching this? But it was like a train wreck I couldn’t look away it was so intriguing.



I am hooked on these Cranberry Oatmeal Dunkers from Trader Joes they are ridiculously good. You will not be able to eat just one.



Have you seen this artwork by Cozamia? It has been floating around Pinterest and Megan from Honey We’re Home blogged about a piece she just bought. I love the unique prints. You can pick and choose your size and framing options and it is super affordable! I can’t decide which one I love more


I am obsessed with everything about this outfit. Anyone know where I can find jeans this color?


I have to admit I did not watch any of the game last night (I am so not a sports person) but I did watch Madonna’s half time show and I really enjoyed it. I was pretty impressed, for 50 years girl can bust a move and looks pretty amazing! I loved that she did some of her old songs and loved when Cee-Lo came out.


Ok, that is all the randomness I have for this Monday Morning. Enjoy your Day!

  14. I think I need to make those burgers. And love those jeans too, I've seen that photo on pinterest too. I blogged about Cozamia awhile ago when I was looking for affordable art. Been loving some of their newer prints!

  15. You can find that color in Joe's Jeans. Joe's makes every color imaginable. Look at http://www.zappos.com or http://www.nordstrom.com

  16. I'm loving that artwork…totally want to invest in a piece!

  17. Love Cozamia, I've got my eye on a few pieces. I really need to make a trip to Trader Joes! I live in Canada but really close to Bellingham, WA. I think some cross border shopping is in order.

  19. Big Macs are my favorite! I'll need to try that recipe! Looks delish! Love the color of those jeans and that artwork is fabulous! Would love a piece for my daughter's big girl room! Have a great day!

  20. Wow, homemade big macs? That sounds really good and the pic looks great. I am really going to run through the ailes of Trder Joe's looking for those Oatmeal cranberry dunkers. Now, that is right up my ally. I'm an oatmeal cookie fanatic and I like cranberry, so this maybe a perfect match for me. Can't wait to try. Thanks for sharing all!

  21. I think everyone in the world ate like a fat kid this weekend! lol
    Those pictures are beautiful, checking them out.
    and I didn't watch the game either, but did see the 1/2 time show. LOVE it. I too was impressed. Running up and down bleachers, dancing, and in heels?! IMPRESSED! 😉

  26. Bud and Leo says:

    ok that show looks cra- I can't take it 🙂 but I would be hooked I'm sure too! and those prints are GORG! I have seen them on pinterest and didn't realize that they are so affordable. I seriously am going to get one. I tried to order one from Made by Girl but she is sold out. And I loved Madonna's outfits but she seemed to be dancing in slomo? 🙂 xo Lis

  27. Oh I've been looking for a new maxi! Love that one. But then I got kinda… um… distracted by that next image 🙂

  28. Krissy says:

  30. I got that print in the mail already and it looks great- I probably should have gotten it in glossy instead of matte though. I'm planning to get it framed asap!
