Blogging is like putting your journal on the internet except it's only the happy things (for the most part) that happen to you. I think sometimes this creates the illusion that we're all happy go lucky chicks with perfect little lives. I know many people have written about this too. I just think blogging is a way to see the good in life and be creative at the same time. And I like that.

Well okay, nancy and I spent this saturday together. it was a nice lil best friend date ;) we like to have those. Keeps the friendship alive, of course! Actually it's just an excuse to give a name to our hanging out....

Anyways, we went to Jantzen Beach, where Barnes and Noble and Target are located...btw I drove on the Freeway for the first time excluding driver's ed :) So we decided to start out lovely outing at Barnes and Noble, which is in my top ten favorite places....Even my top five! Whoaaa...

We pored over magazines and cookbooks, and Nancy found a cookbook I've decided that I need! It's called The sorcerer's cookbook....so cool. And that darling little picture of a 'person' (not necessarily a girl) named Nancy was in a book we found there....I seriously almost peed my pants the first time I saw that picture! Perfection!

And then we mosied over to Target, where I found these amazing booties, for eight dollars! What/?@??@! I am definitely getting them. Somehow I squeezed my size six feet into a five and half....anything for fashion ;)

That's it for today my charming ladies (and gents)!

Love, Sarai

PS: I bargained doing three loads of laundry to not wash the dishes..just saying. Short of selling my soul....

Sneak Peak

Veronica and I making the tradition Venezuelan Arepas (mmmmm...)

Sorry if this might gross you out... It was just too weird. I had to take a picture. He was starring into my soul.

I know, I'm horrible at posting!! These last few weeks have been crazy with Veronica and Majo staying with us. However, those pictures up there are just a little preview of all the planned posts i have for EVERY SINGLE DAY this week. Be proud. I even have some outfit pictures that i need to put up. It's been wayyy too long. I fail. I feel like i've been too overwhelmed with everything lately that i'm just scrambling all the time and then i just end up failing. This week, i'm pulling it together. AND on friday, Sarai, Celeste, Corrie(Celeste's older sister) and I are going to the BEACH for Celeste's birthday celebration! I"m super excited and we're going to go crazzzyyy! Have a fabulous week and I hope you aren't too stressed.

Love,

Nancy 

I'm Sorry!!!!! Please forgive Me!

Crazy Amazing Editing Program!

Yeah, this thing is free and a TON easier than photoshop... i'm not sharing my secret quite yet. I want to keep it to myself for a bit. haha. Editing just blows my mind. I thought this picture looked really good before but no... it looks horrible in comparison. Anyways, just a little ramble from me for your day. 

p.s. sorry it's not very big. if its any bigger it doesn't fit

Leggings As Pants....

Outfit Details

Shirt-Forever21 thrifted

Leggings-Sisters' drawer

Belt-thrifted

Boots-Alloy

This is my rule-breaking monday post! Please be proud of me for wearing leggings as pants! I used to shun it, but when I got this lovely tunic type shirt, I just had to try it! I just kind of love it :)

It's so comfortable, I'm surprised I've never done it before! Wow :P

Oh and Hey! This is the first cake I've ever made for MONEY in my whole life! I'm very much into cake decorating, and I always watch those shows where people decorate cakes, and especially CUPCAKES! So my favorite things in the whole world :)

So this was for Marian's 89th birthday party, and I was actually very proud of the way it turned out! Devils Food cake, with Chocolate Ganache over it. Yummy :)

And on a more grave note, anyone from the Vancouver are will have heard about Mark Golyshevskiy, a local 18 yr old who was in a motorcycle accident last night. He died on impact. Usually, I would mention tragedies such as these, because they generally have nothing to do with me, and I feel disrespectful mentioning those things. But in this case, I actually knew the guy. I didn't know him, I'd only met him a few times, but he had been dating one of my closest friends for two years and four months. She's in shock right now. I've been with her most of the day, and it's been so hard to watch her fall apart the way she has. Surprisingly though, she's displaying an incredible amount of courage, and strength. She's such a beautiful person, and so brave, I cannot imagine how something so awful could happen to someone so young, and for a girlfriend like her to be left alone. I love her with all my heart, and I know that she is strong enough to handle the pain, and the fear. She was so in love with him, and him with her. On the phone with her tonight, I couldn't keep from sobbing because I could just feel her pain through the phone. I wanted to hold her tightly, and tell her that Heavenly Father and The Savior are watching him, and her, but she's not quite ready to hear anything quite that heavy. But I was at least able to tell her that she is so lucky to have loved someone that much, and have them love her in return. 

Mark will be missed <3

Love, Sarai
