food buzzin’
This past weekend I went to the First Annual Food Buzz Festival. It was teeming with food bloggers from all around the country!
Soo much food! SOOOO much food. Soo much FREE alcohol! FREE!
I don't think that I could even recap- I wouldn't know where to start!
I forgot my camera, so I used my cellphone this weekend. That's OK.
I knew at least someone would be taking pics! Here's a little visual for ya:

Welcome to Limboland, Population: ME

Oh hello there! Nice of you to stop by. I thought that I would take a moment and share with you my current state.
Thank you for the birthday wishes!!!
We had a small birthday celebration for Cooper this weekend.
It was primary color & circle themed!

I had a bunch of candy on the table for the adults- The little meringues from Trader Joe's were a hit!
Happy Birthday, Cooper!

Dear Cooper,
A year ago you arrived! At lunch time! Thank god I was granted a fast labor, because I swear- If I had to go more than 10 hours without eating, I would have seriously lost it!!!
Through you, I have learned that the quickest year my life, was the first year of yours. Seriously- where did the time go? How did those edible toes of yours ever fit into those teeny newborn socks? Now you barely wear socks because you pull them off to aid your need for mobility. Silly kid! I can't believe you are already walking.....
You are the most delightful child! Everyone who meets you, tells me how lucky I am to have such a happy baby. It's true... I am. I am so blessed to have you. You've brought so much joy into our lives, I don't even know where to begin!
There have been ups and downs throughout this past year, and I don't know how I would have been able to make it through if it wasn't for you! I can't get enough of your scrunchy face smiles & those giggles of yours- and OMG those little teeth! How fast they cut through a loaf of bread! It's adorable, yet frightening to witness you chomp through a bar of soap! Why must you do that? Don't you realize how gross it tastes?
Thank you for being a good boy! Thank you for making me laugh and to help remember that life is about learning new things- constantly! I had no idea how wonderful it is to squeeze and kiss such soft baby cheeks until I met you. You are my ray of sunshine, and you make me proud.
Love Always,
Your Momma
p.s- I am making some cupcakes while you take your nap. I hope you love them!
p.p.s- look at you! A few hours old! You are a big boy now!

get me a bloody mary, STAT


Today's the day after the BlogHer Meetup and I'm exhausted! I have soo many wonderful things to report but currently my brain is mush. Too many spirits mixed with an abundance of laughter, sensory overload, amazing talent & inspiration...I don't think I can process it all!
I have a lot of new ideas/goals/projects twirling in my head and I'm super stoked about that.
Thank you to the ladies who made the day special! Marcelo done hooked us up!
Oh! And in other news, I am finally on twitter!
Now let's have some fun!
