Trade show fun!

Some of the jewelry girls went to the jewelry/gift trade show at the sands convention center here in las vegas today. Me, Pat, Colleen and Tanya had fun walking around and looking at all the stuff. We were able to buy some stuff today as it was the last day and some sellers did not want to pack stuff up. Here is one deal I got, 3 suitcases with peace signs on them, all 3 for 60.00!!
I love it! I will be traveling to Ontario in October for the scrapbook expo and I can't wait to pack up all my stuff in these cool bags!

Oh those summer nights!

I love to light the tiki torches and sit outside in the evenings and watch the bats fly around, it is so serene out there by my pool.

My inspiration...

When I scrapbook there is one soundtrack that I always listen to, 1973 jesus christ superstar rock opera. I do my best work when listening to this, all the songs are great..this is one of my favorites by ted neeley, any song by carl anderson is awesome as well on the soundtrack, this movie had a big impact on my beliefs as a young person, the music was so moving and powerful, how could it not impact me...enjoy:

Black Thunder arrives!

Yummy!

My friend Colleen Mcgraw got me hooked! She bought an espresso maker online and started making some of us coffee lovers lattes, wow, they were yummy! But then I would go home and after dinner I would think boy, one of those latte's sure would be good right now! Well, I am not running to starbucks and spending 6.00 a latte! So while browsing walmart, I noticed this cute little espresso maker for 34.00, I bought my favorite coffee, Seattle's best decaf, and now I make my own lattes at home! I have even made a foamy heart just like a true barista! I think because I use the foam I am actually making a cappuccino, lattes are just espresso and steamed milk.

I looked them up in the dictionary. Any real barista's out there correct me if I am wrong!

Crab guys here!
