nifty: keyboard jeans

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Thu, 23 Feb 2012 23:23:00 +0000

If you think these are crazy, I think YOU'RE crazy. They have come out with a pair of jeans that is perfect for the lazy, no-desk-having, laptop-using computer nerds like me. They literally have a keyboard, speakers, and mouse built right into them.

I haven't seen any girl versions, but let's be honest- This is about the usefulness. And girls used to be able to pull off the baggy guy jeans in the 90s, I say we bring em back full force. Maybe even have the laptop built right in!

They'll be costing a pretty penny, around $400, but eventually they'll have to go on sale. I'll be on the lookout for the both of us.

Move over, Pajama Jeans. You're not even that cool anymore.

my mardi gras 2012: the pics

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 19:39:00 +0000

I went for my second round of Mardi Gras in New Orleans this past weekend and died. Well, okay... I've obviously been revived now, but I was pretty dead.

Nine of us stayed in one hotel room; 3 friends from Texas, two friends from Florida, my BFF from South Carolina, Corey, Bobby Hollywood, and me. We also met up with the two listeners that won the trip: Stephanie and Colleen!

There are well over 300 pictures and videos, so I figured I'd get up the pictures ASAP so you can occupy yourself while I edit the videos together.

Here are some of my favorites... the rest can be found right here on the FB.

Mr. Pilot Man let us in the cockpit after our flight! Love!

The boys' outfits for the flights!

The entire crew!

Colleen and Stephanie are the pretty ladies on the left.

Cyndi Lauper threw me beads!!!

Added two MTV *stars* to my list of those I've met! Chelsea from Teen Mom 2 and Daniel from Caged. By the looks of things, they totally hooked up that night.

Not naming any names, but someone in our group actually made out with this *beautiful* man.

Spearing the Old Spice Guy.

More fun costumes!

It's kinda like getting arrested for being awesome. Or... something.

I got in a ketchup and mustard fight with some stranger at a hot dog stand.

The view from a balcony!

And we did in fact make it back for the party in Virginia Beach on Fat Tuesday! AND I got my face painted!

Thank GOODNESS Bobby made it back! His phone died before we left and wasn't on our flight. It was awful. Luckily we had most of his stuff with us, and he made friends with a stranger who helped him get another flight home.

As for my outfits, last year I went very normal. This year I wanted sparkles and colors! I wore sparkly skirts from Forever 21 that each cost less than 15$, bright tights for under $5 each, and older shirts I found in my drawer. One was really slutty and completely open in the front [from my college days], so it was perfect. Luckily the beads do most of the work on top outfit-wise though. I also had bright pink jeans for about $12, and a sparkly shirt for under $15 as well. All from Forever, and not ashamed to admit it.

If you're ever having to plan a NoLA Mardi Gras outfit, you should know that rain boots are a MUST. The streets are nasty. You'll see in the Facebook pics. I got mine from Old Navy!

These are the best glimpses of two of my outfits [sorry, wasn't thinking about being fashionable in pictures. Woopsies.]:

Who knew vuvuzelas had another purpose?! Not I.....

At least one video should be up tomorrow or early Friday morning! Might have to do multiples considering all the videos we got!

Now the countdown for next year begins. Our boss already okay'd it and even said he'd help us get a balcony. Hell yes.

elizabethany

podcast: bombarding odu students and invading their privacy

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 19:28:00 +0000

Since getting callers on the topics I do every day is so unpredictable, I had the idea to take it in my own hands and just find people in public to talk to/put on the show.

I went to ODU last week and found random students outside and asked them a variety of different things- both random and what I talked about throughout the week.

I asked where they had sex, if they'd hook up with Snooki, what they thought about vagina lipstick, and what they wanted for Valentine's Day... amongst other things. The answers were more amazing than I could have imagined.

"I'm already pink enough" is now a quote that will forever be one of my favorites/replayed on my show. Freakin' great. And some of the guys I talked to were ROTC students which had me a little apprehensive, but they were hilarious. Imagine finding out your boyfriend wanted to have a threesome with your best friend...

This will be happening once or twice a week now, and hopefully I'll be traveling to different schools/areas. Once the summer is here, I can only imagine what the tourists will have in store for me.

Let me know if you thought it was as funny/entertaining as I did!

watch: the local morning news shared my ellen's dance dare video!

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 18:35:00 +0000

AH! Could I be one step closer?! This morning I got a tweet from Blaine Stewart, one of the anchors at News Channel 3 here in Hampton Roads [which just HAPPENS to be the same channel Ellen is on in the afternoons!], and he told me they'd be showing my video live on the morning show!

Here's what they played: First, the teaser, then the story-

HAHAHA, not going to lie, I'm not surprised people are commenting on my gyration and humping [someone on their FB page really didn't like it], and I wouldn't be surprised if that has something to do with Ellen not showing it, but hey- I was doing the white girl! Plus, when you're in the moment and have no music but the crazy, no-sense-making beats in your head, regular dance moves don't even seem right, nor fun.

I gotta thank Blaine and that whole team for sharing it! Hopefully it'll get some more local views. I'm still very low on them compared to others [I can't figure out why! :(], so feel free to watch it a bunch more times! I hate being obnoxious.

love,

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 00:16:00 +0000

Saw this picture on Facebook via Mike Askins and it's just too dead-on NOT to share.

That last pic is literally what I do every night. Some people who come in to visit are shocked. Sorry to disappoint you if you thought I was all wiggity-wiggity-scratch-fancy in here.

happy valentine's day from me and fckh8!

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 12:08:00 +0000

Happy Valentine's Day! I hope whatever you have planned today, you LOVE it. Single people probably have the most fun, BTW. So embrace it, embrace all the other pissed off single people, and have a good night!

Here's a fabulous e-card straight from my favorite people at FCKH8.

They produce gold. and I fully support their occupy movement. Maybe it's even time to get my third shirt soon.

And this is straight from my heart:

I love you all! Fo'serious.

pinteresting: apple slice pancakes [recipe and pics!]

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 00:35:00 +0000

YES! Continuing on with actually making the recipes I pin!

Yesterday morning I decided to start my day off with a slightly more healthier kick than most of my Sunday mornings and made these delicious pancake-covered apple slices!

This picture might do them more justice...

They're literally apple slices dipped in pancake batter and put on the griddle! SUPER easy! And the apples are nice and warm and melt in your mouth. YUM!
For the fellow cheap and simple people like me, here's what you should do:

What ya need:
1 apple per 7 or 8 pancakes
Pancake mix/batter
Cinnamon
Sugar
Caramel if you'd like them to be more dessert-y
What you'll do:
Core and slice an apple into small slices. I had about 10 slices, then got rid of the outside/very middle ones.
Make the pancake batter according to the box or whatever you use to make it.
Add cinnamon to taste. I added about a tablespoon, but I could have added a lot more. Cinnamon-y apples are obviously delicious.
Dip the apple slices in the batter and place them on the griddle or in a greased pan.
You'll cook them just like pancakes, but it might take a little extra time and a couple extra flips to make sure you get all of the batter cooked.

Then you're done! I kinda wish I could have put caramel on them to make them delicious, but I think you could also put some sugar on the top once one side is placed on the griddle/before you flip it for the first time. Might help accentuate the apples taste.

If you try it and make any changes that make them great, do tell! I was unfortunately trying to make it a healthier, apple-focused breakfast.

what i think about the grammy awards' red carpet, and rick ross' v-neck

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 15:49:00 +0000

Because I tweeted damn near 50 times last night during the Grammy's [or so it seems], I'm not going to tell you everything I thought. You can go look if you'd like.

BUT... I didn't get to talk about the red carpet, and we obviously need to.

Here's what I loved, hands down:

She can do NO wrong, and she's channeling her inner Faith Hill, which is a pretty great decision.

Another reason Kelly Rowland deserves more credit in the music industry. Beautiful.

NEVER thought I'd put Paris in a category of looking good at the Grammy's, but homegirl did it right. I hope that doesn't mean her album will be good. I don't think I could support that.

Nothing bad to say about this lady... even when there's snot coming out of her nose.

Hate the hair, but look at that body! Damn gurl.

These actually leave me a little undecided on my feelings:

I kinda wanna put this in the "good" pile, but I won't. A lot of people HATED her for wearing bebe on the red carpet, but like she said- it's her. Plus, I thought she looked rather pretty.

Sure, it's an ugly outfit, but she's not dressing like a man, and if you take off that netting, her face is actually pretty. I commend her for not being an attention whore.

T-Swift and Gaga in this category! Can you believe it?! I think this dress had potential. It's pretty, and I do enjoy the heart at the chest. I think she had great hair for it, too... but where the f are her boobs?! Plus, it's Taylor.

Alicia Keys rarely looks bad, but I'm hating this hair on her. Swizz Beats and that purple velour jacket- I'm kinda in love with it. Not everyone can pull that off.

And these are just stupid decisions:

Miss Linda Ramone. She's like part Ashley Olsen, part Reba, part Zenon, part saggier boobs than Betty White.

As I said last night, it's like her main focus is outdoing Lady Gaga these days. She had to make some weird red carpet entrance that tied into her performance just like the egg, but no one liked it. It was stupid and rather pointless. Leave the pope outta this.

I'm sorry... is that a doily, Fergie? Did you get this as a DIY idea on Pinterest?

I coulda let the dress slide, Robyn... then you had to wear the platform Tim's.

I've been saying that Katy is so pretty she can pull off the blue hair, but not this time. The roots showing is tacky. The blue on blue is not a good look.. and the style of her dress makes her look a bit larger, am I right?

But THIS.... is the best outfit I saw all night.

RICK ROSS. IN A V-NECK. And that pose! Stop it and get out of town. I haven't giggled so hard at an outfit in a long time.

Overall, it was a decent show. I'm not mad about Adele winning so much, especially after she thanked radio. Not many pop stars will do that. The only thing I ask for next year: A little less "reminiscing" on the music from 40 years ago. Bring back the 90s music for reminiscing purposes, kthanks.

elizabethany

nifty?: lipstick for your hoo-ha

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 18:21:00 +0000

Maybe I'm just a little sheltered [which I'm pretty sure is not the case here], but I don't see the need for lipstick for your vagina. BUT... it exists. And it's called "My New Pink Button."

Okay, so they don't call it lipstick, they say it's a temporary dye! I didn't realize we lost pinkness in our vajay as we got older, ladies, but apparently it's a real problem and everyone is worried about it.

They also mentioned that if you wanted to get a man in trouble, you could always put this on and it'll show up on his wein when he goes home to his woman. Two things about that: you should not be hooking up with taken men, you also shouldn't be the one to punish him, soooo..... take that reason to get it out of the equation, ya hoe.

Am I wrong to think this is a bit much?! Tell me if so. I wanna be enlightened! [NO pun intended]

listen: brandy and monica's "it all belongs to me"

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 23:31:00 +0000

They're teaming up again! And just like I was super excited for Nelly and Kelly Rowland's second team-up, I had high expectations for this song!

Problem is, it's always going to be hard to live up to a classic song when it's more than 10 years later.

Still, this song isn't terrible at all. It's definitely not something I'm immediately falling in love with, but it's enjoyable. It's more along the lines of Beyonce's "Irreplaceable."

Take a listen for yourself:

What do you think? Love it or hate it?

It'll be on both of their albums, coming out this year! Yay!

this is a problem, america

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 14:59:00 +0000

Before I get into this, I need to make a disclaimer: I am a huge lover of all things buffalo chicken flavored. I've made the mac and cheese, the pizza, the dip... and I plan on making all of these buffalo chicken recipes.

That being said, when this flavor of SODA is being made, our country has taken their love for chicken wings entirely too far.

That's effing disgusting. Why would anyone want to send a bubbly mess of hot sauce down their throat?! EW.

Which brings me to something else: BACON. Maybe it's because I'm not a huge fan of bacon, but I do think the fad of it is kinda funny... until fast food places start serving bacon flavored milkshakes.

Which, b-t-dubs, THEY ARE. If you have a Jack-n-the-Box around, go holler at it if you want bacon mushed into your ice cream.

Seriously, America... WE HAVE ISSUES.

MY super bowl xlvi: food, beverages, and commercials

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 18:06:00 +0000

Happy Super Hangover Day! [As I dubbed it last year, anyway.] Apparently 1.4 million people will try and call out sick today. Luckily I get to lay in bed all day and recover from this food hangover.

Instead of going over everything all the other websites are recapping, I shall share with you how I celebrated Super Sunday, and my favorite moments of the game and the aftermath.

I had a couple people over for a homemade pizza night with some snacks and 6 different kinds of beer. [Each person brought a different kind, it was neat!] My choice: the new Bud Light Platinum. You better believe I felt really freakin' cool every time those commercials came on. Plus! The bottles are so pretty! I can't wait to make things from Pinterest with them!

Hell YES I was wearing Redskins stuff! Including my "Hail Yeah" earrings! And I wasn't the only one repping a team that wasn't in the game. Say hello to "Party Girl" from the station and her ugly shirt:

Now onto the important things: The food. I made this delicious Beer Cheese Dip that I found on Pinterest [duh.]

It was REALLY good. People couldn't stop scarfing it down. I did have a little leftover this morning, and the beer flavor was twice as strong as it was last night. So if you do make it, and you want the beer flavor stronger than the cheese, keep that in mind.

We also did a pizza night, where I bought 4 doughs and sauce, and then each duo of people makes their own pizza with their favorite toppings, then you share and try everyone's! It's super fun and super easy! [And really not that expensive, either!]

That's an olive, pepperoni, and pepper pizza, a barbeque chicken and pineapple pizza, a buffalo chicken pizza, and your average pepperoni pizza. All of them- SO GOOD.

As for the game- I'm pissed. I was definitely rooting for the Patriots, but whatever. We won't get into that.

The commercials: I'm kinda obsessed with the "Here WeGo" commercial for Bud Light.

I'm also super pumped for the new M&M. She is SASSY! And the alcohol may have helped, but we totally LOL'ed at this commercial.

And then there was Madonna. Ugh. What a let-down, right?! It could have been so epic, but, it just wasn't. I think the dancers were more epic than her, her fall, or MIA's stupid, selfish finger.

Now, before any of us get entirely too sick of one of the greatest American holidays, I need to go wake-up my roommate and take care of my house's hangover. Hott damn it's a mess down there.

love,
elizabethany

from the show: what do you do if your s/o sucks at special kisses?

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 15:00:00 +0000

I had someone send me a message saying they needed help deciding what to do about their boyfriend who sucked at givin' her oral lovin' down there.

Callie told me her story and I took calls, and I was pretty surprised! Here's what happened on the show:

I'll agree it can certainly put a damper on the relationship, but I'm SHOCKED that even guys were saying he's gotta go. They must be confident in their abilities to do it better than said boyfriend.

I'll believe it when I see it, boys.

Feel free to chime in below!

watch: chiddy bang came to the studio to freestyle while eating breakfast

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 17:23:00 +0000

Remember when Chiddy Bang came to College Station and I drunkenly talked to them and had them freestyle? Yeah, neither did they until I showed them this awful, hott mess of a picture:

Anyway, they came in the studio and with a little more preparation, we got more creative with the challenge we had for them. Since they sent us cereal boxes to represent their upcoming album "Breakfast," we made them freestyle while eating Chiddy Bangs cereal!

They were an absolute BLAST this time. We had too much fun just hangin' around the studio before and after the filming/interviews, talking about Texas, boobs, and crazy guys showing up at other radio stations.
When they left, they told us we had been the most fun radio interview they've ever had thanks to our different challenge and because we're simply a party.

we're going to mardi gras!

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 15:12:00 +0000

We officially announced this last Friday, but I'm so excited to share all the details and really get ready for this!

After my trip to New Orleans for Mardi Gras last year was tornadoed out, I promised myself I'd go back again this year.
When I say I'm gonna do something, I do it.

I got with my coworkers who also wanted to go, ambushed my boss with an idea to get us all to go, and now we're going!

In fact, not only are the three of us going, we're bringing two listeners with us! AND! When we're coming back on Fat Tuesday to throw an EPIC party here in Virginia Beach with all the goodies, lessons, and stories of death we bring back from NoLA!

In order to get it okay'd, we promised to constantly tweet, post on Facebook, and call in to the station while we're there, and to put together fabulous show-all videos when we get back. Sooo... get ready to see me get wild. [Sorry, Mom!]

Because I actually had a major role in putting this whole thing together, I'm even more excited and proud!

Anyway, here's a quick, silly, random video we put together for the promotion! Obvi I had to show the boys how it's done.

We're picking qualifiers for the trip all this week, then picking a final winner on Friday! Ahhh!

love,
elizabethany

you may have noticed some changes...

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 16:07:00 +0000

There are some changes on this here blog, but I'm excited about them, and I hope you are too! [I even have a new lil logo you'll be seeing more often!]

For almost 3.5 years I've had a bit of an identity crisis on here. It started as an entertainment blog, until I realized there are enough of those out there, so I put more of my honest opinion and some exclusive posts on it. When I got my first job [which was kinda the point of starting this], I had half the time I used to, so I think the overall quality of individual posts kinda declined. Still, I didn't wanna let anyone down!

Well, fast forward a year and I've finally decided to really make this blog about me and the things I love. I'll still have entertainment posts, and tons of things about the 90s, but it'll be stuff I really care about or find funny. Beyond that, I want to do a lot more posts about my life, what I'm doing with work but behind the scenes, and the neat stuff I steal from Pinterest.

Assuming you like me for who I am, I should still be able to provide you with plenty of fun. If you liked me for the Hangover posts, those will now be over on the station's website and as far as I'm concerned, you can suck my D because I think I'm cooler than a list of links. [Plus, I still share plenty of links on Twitter every day, duh.]

I have officially changed the link to www.elizabethany.com so you might need to change a bookmark. I partly did this because of the style-change, but since I'm always honest here, I need to tell you that I was an idiot, and missed the deadline to renew my domain name for loveelizabethany.com, and some douchebag took it from me.

Now I must get back to having a life, so I have interesting things to blog and talk about! But before I do that... a very sincere thank you for following me through all the changes. I mean it when I say it: You are da bomb diggity.

love,
elizabethany

hangin and humpin at winterblast 2012

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 18:03:00 +0000

"I talk top 40, but I listen to country." That's what I had to explain to a lot of people on Saturday. It was my sister station, The Eagle's, 5th annual Winterblast concert with a long line-up of artists such as Sunny Sweeney ["From a Table Away"], Gloriana ["Wild At Heart"], and Josh Turner [he's the one with the real low voice, who has the "Baby lock the door and turn the lights down low" song that Scotty McCreery made even more famous].

My coworkers, BFF Mandy [who is normally referred to something much more inappropriate on here, but I can't put her face with that name] and I were all hooked up with a sweet VIP room with free beer and food, plus access to all the artists as they came in for interviews. During our off time: there were a bunch of cornhole games upstairs!

Here are some pictures and deets of my meetings with them!:

Sunny was totally nice and absolutely gorgeous, but seemed to always be in a rush, so I didn't get much of a conversation with her. Hmph.

Everyone in Gloriana was awesome! [You might remember them having a fourth member, Cheyenne, who used to be on MTV, but she's outta there now.] They were a little late, so I made a bet with my boss Shomby on who was to blame. I won! It was the blondie man who took forever to get ready, while Rachel was first. Duh.

What a beautiful man Josh Turner is.... when you're looking at him, anyway. He ~~refused to~~ couldn't do a radio interview [stupid] and then didn't do much talking at all during his meet and greet. I tried to loosen him up with a beer, and I even dry humped him!, and as you can see in the mid-hump picture, he was not too thrilled with anyone interrupting his smile. LAME. I hate when celebs ruin your perception of them.

Basically, it was a fabulous day, and it gave me an excuse to wear my cowboy boots again! I also got to wear a tube top in January. That was weird. [BTDubs, it's from Kohl's clearance and I kinda love it.]

love,
elizabethany

EDIT: I received an email ~~hating~~ correcting me about this post and the things I said about Josh Turner. Be sure to check that out in the comments section below [or by clicking the title of this post!]

It's like a treasure chest of "Where are they now" posts on the Internet today! First I find the cast of "Step by Step," then the ever so fabulous "Salute Your Shorts!"

Most of them are nowhere to be seen when it comes to being in the spotlight these days, which is why it's a beautiful thing to find them!

Here are your faves from "Step by Step:"

Christine Lakin AKA Alicia 'Al' Lambert

Christopher Castile AKA Mark Foster

Suzanne Somers AKA Carol Foster Lambert

Staci Keanan AKA Dana Foster

Angela Watson AKA Karen Foster

Sasha Mitchell AKA Cody Lambert

Patrick Duffy AKA Frank Lambert

Anndd, the Salute Your Shorts kids!

It's like... they're so normal now! I'm disappointed in the overall attractive level, though. Hmph.

tonight's dinner: honey pecan crusted chicken

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 01:10:00 +0000

I've been trying to stop buying frozen meals and actually making healthy options and recipes that I find on Pinterest. As much as I hate cleaning up the mess, it's proven to be freakin' delicious every time.

On the menu tonight: Honey Pecan Crusted Chicken.

[Side note: I need to stop taking pictures of food with my phone.. they don't do it any justice.]

It's a SUPER easy recipe that only calls for chicken, honey, mustard, paprika, garlic powder, corn or frosted flakes, and pecans or any nuts of your choosing!

silly people who "#knockonwood" on twitter

I'm definitely a superstitious person, and am constantly knocking on wood for different things, and last night it got me curious about what else people are knocking for.

I searched "#knockonwood" on Twitter and found some interesting things... Here are the tweets and my responses:

Seriously... now I need to knock on wood just because of what other people are saying. That's a little scary.

watch: the man behind "the honey badger"

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 15:35:00 +0000

"The Honey Badger" is absolutely one of my favorite videos of 2011, if not of all time. To this day, I can't stop quoting it.

I don't think I ever wondered what the man behind the voice looked like, but I think that's because I had a pretty clear description in my imagination. Now, my mind has been blown.

video platform video management video solutions video player

The turtleneck! The facial hair! THE HOLLYWOOD GLASSES. The "I've always had a talent for narrating!" OMG. Randall is NOTHING like what I imagined. What a piece of work he is.

And BTW, in case you were wondering, he's finally stepping out into the spotlight because he's working on a book AND TV series. Hallelujah.

watch/listen: the cranberries' new music video "tomorrow"

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 15:17:00 +0000

The Cranberries have jumped on the bandwagon of helping us try to bring back all-things-90s. Here's there brand new song "Tomorrow."

At first listen, it's certainly nothing like their classics, but her voice has not changed a bit, so it's absolutely enjoyable and soothing.

Do you think that maybe we aren't used to sounds like this so that's why when they come back they're "not as good," or are they really a let-down?

pics: i got a new photoshoot!

noreply@blogger.com (elizabethany) — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 17:21:00 +0000

It's been a WHILE since I had a photoshoot done, and considering the move altered by body in unflattering ways, I was hoping it'd still be another while.

BUT, the station was in need of an update when it comes to our pictures on the website. Half of us don't look anything like what our picture does anymore.

So I called on my cousin, Paige Engel, to come take some pics! Here are some of the best she got of me in the studio:

Obviously I had to "spice" it up by getting on the desk/table/whatever you wanna call it. Beyond that, I'm surprised I smiled so much. That normally doesn't happen.

Here are the new ones she shot for the website:

A big thank you goes out to Paige, and if you live anywhere near Ocean City, MD, you should totally check her out for any of your photo needs!

One of the coolest things about being here is being able to hook up the listeners with some seriously awesome prizes. We've given away tons of Coach purses, iPads, iPhones, and basically everything I would love to have but can't.

Next week we're doing something that I came up with and I am beyond excited for it! So excited that I made this little teaser vid to get them all amped.

Obviously the Mardi Gras theme is pretty obvious, but there are 3 little details that none of them have picked up on.

AH. I can't wait!

love,
