Not Done

Trying out a new look for my blog.

I'm not done yet...just running out of time...

Hopefully a complete new look coming after the weekend.

Winner



Or at least I'm one of the winners.  There were lots of cool eggs entered and the judges picked three winners.  Two other gals from the design department won the other prizes.  One with a leopard painted egg, and the other with an incredible silk-tie dyed egg.  Apparently if you take a 100% silk necktie and wrap it around an egg and boil it in water and vinegar the colors transfer to the egg.  She had a really pretty brown and orange patterned egg as a result.  I may need to try that next year.  Or next week, Jamie and I still have a dozen eggs in the fridge.

Easter Eggs

My work is having an Eater egg decorating contest and these are my entries.

And Jamie thought we were just dyeing eggs tonight...


She doesn't realize how involved I get in a project.

First kiss? At the movie theater.

It was 1998, the summer right before my 9th grade year. Those who know me, probably remember who I started dating that summer. Those who don't, lets just say that you're probably better off not knowing who I'm talking about.

We went out on a "date" to see the movie Ever After. I use the term "date" pretty loosely since we were too young to drive and had to have parents escort us everywhere. Anyway, I remember having a sore throat and not wanting to share a soda because I didn't want to get him sick.

Well we held hands *gasp* through the movie and during the scene when Drew Berrymore and Dougary Scott sneak away to a secluded hideaway and to where they may share a first kiss, my date turns and looks at me and says, "If you're sick, then I'm sick." and kisses me.

That's my first kiss.
Incredibly cheesy line? Yes.
Did it make my 14 year old heart melt? Yes.
Makes me queasy to think about it now? Yes.

What's your first kiss?
