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.

My car is not my friend.

Recently, I came across an article in Self Magazine that stated, "Socializing isn't the only way to alleviate loneliness. Spending time with a beloved pet or dependable everyday object (such as a car) can also generate a sense of connection, a study from the University of Chicago indicates."

I'm sorry, University of Chicago, I don't quite buy it.

I woke up this morning to an empty house (all of my roommates were out working like real people), so I decided to go run a few errands all by my lonesome. Now I've had 8 years to develop my relationship with my car, but as much as I love my 2000 Honda Civic, Itchi, I don't think it'll ever generate the "sense of connection" I have with my friends.

sometimes I feel like such a lady

Thanks, Noelle, for getting married and giving us a reason to throw a ladylike shower.

No party is complete without a little DC.

Post-shower evening walk.

Spring is FINALLY here!

Sleepover!

We're having a sleepover at the green house with Hailey tonight and I can hardly contain my excitement. I've had a lot of sleepover's in my day, but I have a feeling none of them can top this.

Coldplay is coming to SLC on November 22nd...

...and I'll sell one of my organs to get a ticket.

Oh no she di'nt!

Oh, c'mon Ms. Knowles, really?! As I was doing my weekly perusing of Brownsista.com, I came across Beyonce's new line for children, Dereon Girls (okay, so maybe I wasn't looking at brownsista.com, but thanks Perez). As much as I love the House of Dereon (aka House of Diarrhea), I'm not sure I want my future children to look like baby ho's. A four year old in heels?! I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

Salt Lake is the new LA

HSM 3 starts filming across the street from my house tomorrow. Get excited.
