A Winner and My Happy List!

This morning as Big Daddy was rushing J out the door to school (no need to rush there was plenty of time) i grabbed her and had her draw a winner for Mamarazzi's Box Of Goodness . I know, finally, right?! Thank you to everyone who entered. And the winner is....
Angie from SevEn cLoWn CirCuS . Congrats Angie, email me your address and i will get the box out to you at the beginning of next week. It was a lot of fun putting together a box of treasures, i hope you enjoy my junk more than i enjoyed hoarding and storing it...i am happy to share!

There are several things on my HAPPY List this week. So i thought i would share, cuz why should i keep all that is good and wonderful in my life to myself. Yes, I like to share, because i am awesome like that.



Oh my friends how i have missed you. Thanks for coming back into my life. First the writer's strike took you away For. Way. To. Long. and just as we were getting back into our groove, you went away for summer. I'm looking forward to the hilarity that the new season is sure to bring.mmmm Pineapple Cilantro from Illuminations . This yummy smelling candle is amazing! I love to cook, but i do not like the smell of food in my house once the dishes are done and the kitchen is clean. I light this little baby up and the scent quickly sends me to my happy place!
i just got the new Land Of Nod catalog...i am in love with these darling 12 days of Christmas Ornaments. I want them...i really, really want them. I love that catalog. I especially love all of the cute nursery bedding and decor for children's rooms. It makes me wanna move so i can have new rooms to decorate...and ESPECIALLY makes me want a baby...even more!!!

and look at these little puppets. Also from The Land Of Nod ...aren't they adorable? i think i could make them, but this might be one time when i am not actually as cool as i think i am...

Dooney & Bourke you have done it again...oh how i want these two bags. Yes i have several designer bags that practically throw themselves at me (falling from the shelves of my packed closet), but the Zebra and Giraffe prints are just So. Much. Fun. ESPECIALLY for Fall! *sigh*

from gorgeous designer bags to the simplicity of smooshed FRUIT, i know i am all over the place but i love to share what my kid loves too, lucky you! AND J loves this FruitaBu organic smooshed fruit. Have y'all tried these? Your kids will go nuts over the "fruit by the foot" type rolls they have in Strawberry, Orange and Grape. They are made with REAL organic fruit and J BIG-red-puffy-heart-L O V E S them. OH and each roll is a FULL serving of fruit...yep REALLY. Gotta feel good about that right? They have the big boxes at Costco right now!

and finally a very short video of J dancing The Cotton Eyed Joe with the Young Women at our ward's talent show last Saturday (a thrilling post in itself best left un posted). You can't see J for the fist few seconds or the last few seconds because OF COURSE she had to get behind the tallest girl in the group. Look for her though...J is wearing a green Banana Republic tee shirt and jeans swinging a camo bandanna. I am super proud of her. They decided to do the dance at the last minute (organization at it's finest) and taught the girls like 5 minutes before the show was to start. But J jumped up there without fear of looking silly. i love that about her!

You can view other videos of J showing off her dancing skills dancingqueen, dancingqueen2 and dancingqueen4 at the church cotillions. OH the goodness that is my child, enjoy!

So tell me...What is on YOUR Happy List this week?

The new thing on my happy list is my pamp chef pastry cutter...i use it to make "uncrustable" sandwiches for my kids.

I also love my new washcloth holder. I filled it with washcloths yesterday and looking at it makes me REALLY REALLY happy.

Angie Rocks! I'm sure she deserves a box of Mamarazzi fabulocity! I love LOVE the giraffe purse. I'm gonna make a fake Dooney rip off for myself! I also want to make some of those puppets. I have a hand puppet fettish, and although I have tons - no one ever plays with them :( I guess I need to play with them myself or quit hoarding them.

I had to go through my school boxes looking for something for YW yesterday. I was totally thinking of you! It made me want to be back in the classroom :D So much fun stuff!

Supercool Hotmama said...

I've been excited all day. I LOVE a surprise, and I love receiving packages in the mail, yours will probably be my first at my new address, and I'm thrilled.

And your list......so great. I haven't seen the D&B purses, but oh so stylish, and the organic fruit looks great!
