Raddest Kitchen Cart, Ever

This is a well-deserved shout out to my BFF Tracy of the Modern Urban Living blog for not only assisting in the construction of my awesome new Kitchen Cart (purchased from Overstock) but for actually single-handedly building the cart herself while I held stuff in place and occasionally handed her a random piece of the cart from where it was strewn across my floor. Thanks a billion Tracy, and long may you continue to Rock.

“This is our dining table. We built it because we needed a new dining table, and I guess we’re just that kind of people. It has a frosted glass top lit by 448 multicolored LEDs that respond, in a complex and gentle fashion, to input generated by motion above the table while we eat.” How awesome is that? Detailed instructions on how to make your own version of the table can be found HERE. Bon appetite!

Delicious Goodness
Waffle of the Gods

This morning I was a bit behind schedule getting out of the house – because I enjoy being asleep, and mornings bite the big one sideways. In my haste to slam the front door as loud and hard as I possibly could behind me, I not only forgot to grab my Netflick on the way out, but I also spaced on bringing my Tupperware full of tasty breakfast cereal with me. Needless to say, but you can see I am about to, I arrived at the office in need of procuring breakfast.
