I need HELP!

So, I have come across a great online Jewelry store thanks to the blog world and I need your help getting some FREE credits!

I've been dying for a gemstone necklace but I haven't seen any that I just fell in love with until I saw the one around Carrie Bradshaw Lied's neck. I can't control my envy and I NEED this necklace so bad! You can help me get it by going to Favery and signing up for their emails. It takes two seconds and you will get $10.00 FREE to use on your first purchase. For your email sign up I get $6.00 and I need about 10 more sign ups to have enough to get this necklace for FREE!

There is only one left so I might miss out on the deal... we will leave that up to fate.

Please Please Please help me out! Think of it as buying me a gift and you don't have to spend a dime. Also, their site rocks... I'm obsessed with SO MANY THINGS.

Wants VS. Needs

On Monday my mom called me at 8pm and was telling me about how great her week is going. While I'm happy my mom is having a good week the first thing I said was, "Mom, it's Monday don't you think you're jumping the gun?!" She is so funny sometimes but it makes me so happy she's already having a great "week." Lord knows that woman deserves it.

I've been in a huge cooking mood this week and I'm planning on sharing some recipes soon for Tuna Cakes and Planko Tilapia. Here's a picture sneak peak of the Tuna Cakes:


Can I just say that I am SO happy July is over with! I swear every year that month just seems to drag on and on. My favorite season is next... FALL! I absolutely can't wait for another beautiful Northwest (No, not talking about Kanye's baby) Fall. I'm already on the lookout for candy corn and I really need to decide on what I'm going to be for Halloween.

I also really want to go spend some money. I get in these shopping moods every couple of months and one is hitting me now... I NEED THINGS. Okay, I don't really need anything but I want, OH HOW I WANT!

Feel free to send me any of the following as gifts:


Cartier inspired swag.
Oh and you can buy me the REAL thing here... if you've got 6K just laying around.

Reckless Tall Boot in Brown



Macro USM Lens



Speedlite 430EX II Flash


Canon BG-E9 Battery Grip

Why is everything I want so dang expensive?! But... I could use all of it at the same time... how cute would I be!?

TEN!

Woohoo! I did it! after almost 2 months I lost the first 10lbs.

I'm really happy..it's going to take time to lose the rest but I'm willing to put it in. This week was a good week...last week was hard. What is the moral of the story? Push through the bad weeks and keep going, it gets better.

As a reward to myself I decide to get a couple new pretty baubles after this girl posed about going to the Kendra Scott store. Chad is going to make me stop reading your blog if you don't stop posting about all things fabulous. Now, I'm on a rampage to get a Chanel purse before I die and he is having a stroke saying, "Is that the last purse you're ever going to get?" --- No, Chad. There is no such thing as a "last purse."

I also have now added going to the Kendra Scott Color Bar in Newport to the list when we are on vacation in November! I love discovering new jewelry stores just about as much as I love discovering new types of brownies. 

Where do you get your favorite jewelry?
