Breakfast at Boulevard Bread Company

Boulevard Bread Company is my favorite place in Little Rock. The other day I was making a list of things I would miss when we leave {should the day ever come…}. You know, to try and stay positive about this whole living in a tornado shelter thing. Here’s my list: 1. Boulevard Bread Company 2....

Favorite Things April 2011

I have experienced a few things this week every day this week that I have never experienced before.  And when I say never, I mean NEVER IN MY TWENTY NINE YEARS. Never ever ever ever ever. Until now. When my life has somehow turned into a Middle America thunderstorm. I took this picture of the...

The Shellac Manicure

Last week my BCFAFF {best chick-fil-a friend forever. too much?} Jessica and I got shellac manicures. Have you heard of these things? It’s relatively new {I think…} and it’s a manicure that stays on for 2 weeks. Essentially they do the “gel” part of what they do to women who get artificial nails, but without...

Some of the writers and blogs I keep up with give their readers hotel room tours when staying at out of town hotels.  I really enjoy reading the hotel room tour posts that others write, mostly because they are an inside look at hotels way out of my price range, so I can dream of...
