Restarting the blog

After much deliberation and thinking, I've decided to restart my blog, with a few changes.  Most of you know this from my sophomore year at Butler when I had to take an Intro to Drawing (the exact course name escapes me at the moment, but it was a pre-req for a graphic design class I wanted to take) where our professor made us take pictures of our drawings for that week and post them on a blog so he could grade them; I won't subject any reader to the progression of my drawing skills throughout a semester.  But 3 quick facts to get the restart going:


1) I have a serious love affair with blazers.  I wear them all the time, no joke.  People always tell me that I look nice and dressy when they see me with one on, and it always feels weird to tell them that blazer + whatever else is completely normal for me.  
Case in point- flower print dress and
my favorite navy blue blazer at a
wedding last weekend
Next up on my need to buy blazer list is this one: http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/blazersandvests/noveltyblazers/PRDOVR~71042/71042.jsp .  Also, if anyone finds the J.Crew hacking jacket in a size 6, please send it my way (I'll make you ice cream as a thank you).


2) I love baking and making desserts.  So if I end up talking about whatever I just baked the other day for an entire blog post I apologize in advance (but while we're on the subject of dessert, I made an awesome batch of cake batter ice cream with sprinkles and cherry frosting mixed in.  Very labor intensive, but totally worth it.).


3) I love social media, and how it can be used to promote an organization to a greater audience.  I think that there are so many great and awesome things social media can do, which is why I'm so passionate about it and am looking into jobs where I can put all that I've learned to use (one day all those conferences and classes that I've attended will be put to use outside of my own personal use.).


That's all for now, I have to run to the pool and coach my kiddies, they're doing a set of 2:01's today so, I won't be their favorite person this practice.  But I may write later about mac and cheese night at Jenni's where we learned (or tried) to wiggle/shuffle/whatever it's called.
