Winner, Suri Cruise, and Quinoa???

Yes, yes, yes, it's Pick-a-Winner Friday here....

I will do the usual and share a video of me and my gorgeous daughter,
{toot, toot, my own mini-horn}
picking a winner of my wonderful, on-going, give-aways
of phenomenal jewelry.

But first, 
I need to say, I am in shock.
Total, utter, shock...
cuz, I am 37 years old...
and you know I have wish-lists....
{like a new laptop/Mac}

and this girl gets an IPad!!!


Suri Cruise...the little 4 year old has me beat!

Whatevs, Tom and Kate...onto the video...




Congrats!  Here is the bead you won!



By the way, I'm gonna give Trader Joe's a huge shout-out!
{Gosh, I hate that term...shout-out... and I just used it.}
Branmuffin picked this up and I am obsessed!



I am a huge Quinoa {pronounced Keen-wah} freak,
since being introduced to it last summer.  
And now they offer this in the freezer section.
We have decided to try do a grocery budget, 
and Trader Joes has great stuff, super cheap!

As you can see by my video today,
I tried to make a pretty background for the video...
you know, flowers and showcasing my new throw pillows...
This home decor project has me up late at night
and dreaming of beautiful decor, it really is so much fun
to look for beauty, I can't wait to share it with you!

Toodles!

Good Morning! First, I can't believe those flowers are from your Moms garden (Mary they are GORGEOUS!). Second, where did you get your kitchen table? Dave and I have been looking for one just like that and aren't having any luck. I am really looking forward to seeing some of your design posts when you do your friends place!

That Lil Tatum toot, toots you mini horn everyday and sometimes it is a big loud one too. I think I am going to have to buy me some Silverado since I can not win one..... HMMMMMM I can not wait to hear the secret.....

wow -- I won!!!! Thanks Suzanne, it's been an awesome week and I've been blessed on a couple of sides. Thank you for your energy and passion for life!!!! Now I will have to 'get a silverado bracelet' since I've got something to put on it!!! Have a GREAT weekend.

OK, girl- are you sure you didn't throw mine back in the first time Tatum picked one? j/k. Congrats, Gwen- may it begin your obsession with Silverado like it did me...

So excited to try the Trader Joe items... they look tasty! As for Suri, who cares... look at her parents... an iPad is pocket change for them. (Sad thing is, they probably didn't even buy it- Apple probably sent it to them for fun...or a photo op) You'll have one soon, and then your little Tatum will be on it more than you ;) They have killer kids aps...)

And speaking of Tatum, she is such a little cutie pie! Love the flowers in the background- fabulously gorg! Have a great weekend! Can't wait to see what bead is next for the giveaway!
