What the weekend entailed


it began with a rainbow and just got better from there...

salmon kabobs (delicious and easy!)
rock the garden
holy land falafel
raspberry lemonade
new jacket
chocolate chip cookies
walking the sculpture garden @ sunset with the Decemberists rocking Heart's Crazy on You in the background = perfection

My cousin took this picture with his phone of the crowd during the day; seriously ten thousand people there...didn't feel crazy crowded though. Great people watching and some serious fashion going on. As my cousin said, it was a sea of sundresses.

Focus! My mission statement

I feel very lazy for not posting in this blog. Not that it's mandatory to update blogs but I like the online community and the blogs I've encountered and read so far. I've just felt...a bit uninspired. A long unemployment, a loooong winter...it was just an uninspiring time of life. Hence my ignoring this blog.
But! winter is over and I have a job and again I've fallen in love with my city of Minneapolis. Yes, I claim ownership, that's how much I love it! So hopefully I can post more about local events and stores and give another insight to Minneapolis. There's plenty of yummy food, great sites, and fun things going on especially in the summer. And I am making it mandatory that I carry my camera around with me everywhere. I may be slightly embarrassed by my photography skills but I feel like I'm missing out documenting things that matter to me.
I didn't take this picture but I just had to state my excitement about the Kushner Celebration going on at the Guthrie Theater. We have really great regional theater here and I always swell with pride when I think of the Guthrie.
