gingerbread house making contest!

the boys in los feliz always throw a good party! on saturday night adam and jesse had a christmas party where we got to have a gingerbread making contest. it was awesome. my team was totally into it (although i'm not a super competitive person, so that was pretty funny.) we didn't win...but it was really fun. and definitely had a car and working garage with our house thanks to julie!

it was a really great night that ended perfectly with a few of us chatting by the fire in the fireplace :)

scarfs.

i don't really think i've picked up too much of an LA style over the past year, but i do love scarfs. although i'd say they're pretty international at this point...so i may not have picked up any style...ha.

i just got a new scarf last night for birthday. (thank you julie morris :) ) oh man, i love a new scarf. so great. i never realized how cold my neck can get.

'duh' has stood the test of time.

i flipped on the radio the other morning, and caught the end of a conversation in which one of the djs happened to say 'duh'. they continued on to say, "duh has really stood the test of time". i was thinking about it, and they are right. ha. i've been saying duh forever, and it hasn't lost a thing.

what other words are like that? hmmm....

9 days until christmas. 7ish days until i fly home. 4 days until i SEE erikka and eric. it's almost officially winter and it's going to be in the 70s tomorrow. oh LA.

disneyland tomorrow :)

rain or shine.

props to target.

i've been listening to the radio a lot lately since 103.5 is playing christmas music all day! in doing so, i have had the pleasure of hearing quite a few target radio commercials. let me tell you, they are hilarious. no joke. if you get a chance to hear any of them, you will NOT be disppointed.

since they don't really have radio commericals on youtube, here are some funny tv commercials i found. props to target. enjoy!

Is it working?
