i will be laughing for hours

Why do I not have this?!

 The #1 New York Times bestseller that Time Magazine called 'damn near genius,' The Fault in Our Stars is the story of two Indianapolis teenagers who meet at a Cancer Kid Support Group . . . John Green is the New York Times bestselling author of Looking for Alaska, An Abundance of Katherines, Paper Towns, and The Fault in Our Stars. He is also the coauthor, with David Levithan, of Will Grayson, Will Grayson. (Found on JohnGreenBooks.com)

So, I have all of Green's books, but I'm not sure why I haven't bought this one yet... Maybe I'll grab a copy this weekend as a 13-day early birthday present for myself?

Enough said.. I. NEED. THIS. NOW!!!   $5.95 from BudTrap.com

My mom actually gave me one of these... and I LOVE IT. I think I need another!

the winds are a' changin'

So, as you can probably tell, this purpose of this blog has taken a turn.. not for the worse, but hopefully toward a more personal look into what makes me tick..

Although I still love the name, I want to foster a more inspirational and creative place for myself and others to find inspiration.

I still love food, cooking, and all that, don't get me wrong. (see the yummies above!) I still try to meal plan and keep myself on a budget, especially as a poor college kid.. But, I have found that keeping track of and blogging about these things is awfully time consuming, repetitive, and dull.

I want to make this a place where I can run away from my day-to-day world, and foster more stimulating and personally-constructive thoughts and ideas.

So, I hope that this change will help nurture my left brain and cause my creativity to flourish.

Cheers to a more inspiring life!
