One more sleep until I go to CA...

Dear High School Friends,

I can't wait to reunite in San Diego. I promise I won't wear jeans on the beach like I did when we went on our senior trip. Can't wait to see your faces!

Love,
Lindsay Lark

I left my heart in San Francisco.

San Francisco has always been one of my favorite cities for a myriad of reasons. For starters, where else can you see a full mariachi band strollin' down the street (we're talkin' at least 4 blocks) at 10 o'clock at night?Last weekend, my sister surprised me with a plane ticket to visit her and Bret for a few days. While in Alameda/San Fran, I got to sleep at the Pristine Green, eat ridiculous amounts of fresh fruit (which solidified any thought I had of ending up back in sunny CA), ride bikes, hike to the beach, and roam around the city with the best host and hostess the bay area has to offer.Doesn't get much better than that.

How can something so good be so bad?

I ate T-Bell for the second time in the last week today and I'm slightly ashamed at how much I enjoyed it. When I came home, I made the mistake of looking up the nutrition facts of the cheesy beefy burrito I was lured into buying- I won't even subject you to the horror I found. Let's just say, I think it was just what I needed to curb my appetite for the delicacies Taco Bell has to offer.

I love where I live because...

I'm within walking distance to a grocery store, donut shop, the gym (to counteract the donuts), and Gilgal Garden where I can see the Joseph Smith Sphinx and many other um, interesting rock sculptures any time I want.

My Roommate, The Next Food Network Star

As some of you know, my friend, the lovely and talented Kelsey Nixon, is a contestant on this season of The Next Food Network Star. Last night, me and some of my friends were lucky enough to go to a little demo/screening premier and it did not disappoint! Not only did Kelsey make one of the best dishes on the first episode (it was DE-LICIOUS!), but she's also the most likeable (I don't care what you say Giada DeLaurentis). This is where you come in. If you happen to catch the show (Sunday night on the Food Network), don't forget to go HERE to vote for Kelsey as the fan favorite. Heck, even if you don't watch the show, still vote because you like me and trust me. Okay? Even if you don't like me, trust me on this one.

I know, I know, I'm wearing the same dress that I wore to the bridal shower. I'm trying to be green by recycling the outfit. I just can't deny a good summer go-to dress.
