one of the ladies has a book coming out!
she traveled the world for a year interviewing
men & women about their relationships,
exploring and questioning this post-dating world
in search for a better answer than "he's just not that into you."
you can pre-order her book, The Gaggle, on Amazon.

and guess what? New Line Cinema is making it into a movie!
(ahhh! can't wait.)
also, the hostess (the best hostess around) made candied bacon chocolate chip cookies...
I know, I know - sounds completely wack, but they were incredible.
her recipe is here.
...
christmas-card-love:
i hope my cards brought smiles to my loved ones!
...
the smell of oranges has always reminded my mom of Christmas -
- and thus, reminds me of the same.
...
a group of us threw a surprise party on Friday for friends
that are moving to San Francisco in January.
{no photo to show you, but their faces were priceless!}
sigh...I'm in such denial this lady is leaving.
pack me in your suitcase? please?
I got this pillow for their new apartment:
it makes me smile. :)
...
memories of a beloved dog named Jackson:
my good friends had to say goodbye this weekend
to this special member of their family after only 5 years;
my heart aches for their loss. :(
we'll never forget your loyalty & love, jack. never ever.
...
so, i follow naomi davis & her family's journey on her adorable blog.
(we're talkin' huge fan over here.)
as you can imagine, I was delighted to run into
as you can imagine, I was delighted to run into
her husband and baby during their nyc visit!
i have to admit, it's a little awkward
running into a stranger you know so much about.
i follow him on twitter, i know his wife just announced they're expecting,
i know that he has an affinity for french fries.
{stalk much? sheesh!}
josh was as nice as he could be, though,
asking about me and posing for pictures.
he asked for my help putting on eleanor's mittens;
she looked at me like "who, on earth, are you?",
but still totally melted my heart.
i tweeted the pictures to naomi and she tweeted me back,
wishing me a merry christmas.
hope she knows she totally made my 2011.
...
i bought new hair brushes for the first time
in a really, really long time.
thought you should know.
...
saw this sign in my local art store:
i dig it.
...
gifts from friends:
glasses for sundaes & shakes?
fun straws?
nail polish?
chevron for my iPhone?
obsessed! oh ladies, you sure do know me.
(thank you!)
(thank you!)
...
p.s. i know this time of year can get a tad stressful with what feels like
one
big
holiday
RUSH.
~ so much to do, so much going on, so much traveling ~

~ so much to do, so much going on, so much traveling ~
remember to take a second and laugh a little. it helps.
I highly recommend watching these minute long clips of
"Sh*t Girls Say" if you haven't already seen them.
they're hilarious!
until next time,
