1. So, I've kind of been avoiding blogging. Not a lot of motivation. We'll see how long this blogging stuff continues for me. I'm even debating keeping it going. If I did, I'd need to change it up. So, let me know what you think my new blog should be about! Please! I need help!
2. Last month I did some photography for my sisters and their beautiful children. Here are my nieces and nephews all decked out for Halloween. I'm sorry, but they are the cutest kids on the planet. Really. It's true.
Too stinkin' cute. Love them.
3. I went to NYC twice last month. The 2nd time was to help Candice with some photo shoots which was fun. I also got to hang out with KP and Susan (luckily Susan was visiting at the same time!) and we spent some time in GORGEOUS Central Park. It was the best day for taking pics the day we were there. So fun! Here's The Mall/Poet's Walk:
Ah! I miss it!!
4. Candice also scored us tickets to Martha Stewart which was fun--it was all decorated for Halloween which was cool. The only downside was that I took the red eye in and basically went from the airport to the show so I was a little sleepy. But we got free stuff...so that sort of made up for it. Here's me and KP and the set right after the last segment:
5. In our goody bag from Martha, we got this:
Um...does anyone know what this tool is for? I've seen the Peanuts ads on the subways, etc. so I'm familiar with this campaign, I'm just not sure what this is and why it's shaped that way...? Candice and I spent some time googling it and couldn't find anything on it. I'm going to say it's to spread peanut butter rather interestingly. I'm so confused.
6. So, I have this friend Emily who is extremely talented. She made me this:
Are you jealous? Cause you should be. Isn't that the cutest bag?! I get compliments every time I take this baby out. It's Boho Chic. And you should get one. Go check out her Etsy store Chloe Jane Handmade to get one of your very own (P.S. I made her logo!).
7. I made this card for the American Crafts blog:
I know. You're shocked. I used scissors and paper and glue and actually made something. Thanks to AC for making it possible. I'm still trying to get used to the whole scrapbooking world...all over again. Good times!
8. Are you watching Community? Well you should be. It is awesome. Not to mention Joel McHale is HOT.
Every character on this show is funny. Seriously. Love it.
9. Don't go see The Box. Please. Don't. Save it for RedBox, NetFlix or some other compound word. The only saving grace? The homage to Hitchcock. That's about it.
There were scary parts to it. So scary that when I went into the large restroom after the movie and realized I was the only person in there and almost peed my pants. Luckily, as stated, I was in a restroom. It's a freaky thing to be the only person in a public restroom late at night. One time, in the middle of watching Disturbia, I went to the restroom and was the only one in there and someone came in and went to the stall right next to me. Um...freaky. Really? You had to go right next to me? Don't kill me.
10. Can Thanksgiving please come already? I'm done with school. I need a break. And some turkey.
Later,
Sarah ;)
Sarah -
I found your blog through Michelle Virtue and Jenn Hsu (I worked with Jenn at BYU...)
Anyway, I really like reading your confessions, as I, too, am a twenty-something, soon to be thirty-something. So I vote for that option.
Also, that peanut butter knife thing looks like it would be really handy to get into that annoying lip around the top of the peanut butter jar.
That bag is cute. I may need to get one. Thanks for putting the link up.

Don't go! I would love any of those blogging options. So much so that I can't pick just one. Seriously, I just re-looked at the list and want it all! I care about what you think on all those subjects! Um, that peanut thing cracked me up, so weird. No idea what it is. Sorry, can't help there. I think your photos are really good. Thanks for blogging!

It is a peanut butter spreader- I have one and it works perfectly to get all the PB out of the corners of the jar!
Jealous that you went to Martha!

I love your posts, Sarah. Keep blogging. :)

Yes, don't go. Can I vote for more than one option? Confessions, pop culture, and design...
Posted by: Carolyn Quebe | November 26, 2009 at 10:10 PM
I'd like to vote for 'all of the above.'
and now that you have tv again, talk about that some more. ;) lol Love ya!

Cute pictures!
When I first scrolled past that peanut butter thing it looked like a pregnancy test...um, lol.
Thanks for the recommendation not to go see the box. i've heard a lot of bad reviews so I'll keep my $11 thank you very much and spend it on frozen yogurt.
