Brunch Time

Hello Again,

A few Sundays ago, The Ellers had friends over for brunch and a viewing of DJango Unchained. Bloody Marys and bloody movies are a winning combination! Though I am more of a Mimosa kind of gal...

I wore this bright, cheap dress I picked up at Ross. It reminds me of a 1950s peasant, vacation dress. 

Dress: Ross
Bow Flats: Target (old)
 There were waffles & fruit topping, potatoes, deviled eggs, fruit, and cupcakes. I am salivating just remembering this meal. Tracy did an amazing job hosting this brunch!
Tracy also made these little coconut strawberry confections. They were so yummy!

DJango Unchained is an amazing film. We first saw it with the Ellers on Christmas Day, so this was our second viewing. It was even better the second time around.

I hope you are all having a fab Friday. I am off to set up for a comic convention this weekend. I will be skipping the convention this Saturday morning, and attending the grand opening of our local Torrid with some friends. Woo hoo!

Don't forget to enter our Anjolee Anniversary Ring Giveaway!

With A Little Help From My Friends

Hello Again!

In mid April, my love Aron took a week long business trip to Germany. While I was happy that he gained more international travel experience, I missed him very much. Luckily, I had my fab friends to keep me company that week.
Saturday night the Ellers had friends over for yummy red beans and rice, and a viewing of Killer Joe. Have you seen Killer Joe? Though it is not for the faint of heart, I highly recommend it. You will never see Kentucky Fried Chicken (K-Fri-C) the same way. It was a fun night :)
Later that week, I went for a much needed pedi with Becca. Afterwards, we stopped by The Painted Clay to check out their wares. Cupcake AND Wolverine pottery? Radness. 

John and Becca also invited me over for a yummy dinner of pork chops and mashed potatoes, finished with some Publix Espresso Chips frozen yogurt. It was great company, and a great meal.

Speaking of Publix frozen yogurt...ummm, I think I may have a problem. I devoured this fabulous coconut stuff in just a few days. Wow. 
Later that week, Kelly and I had a girls shopping day. We went to the Rivergate Mall and Opry Mills in Nashville, then ended up back at The Avenue in Murfreesboro. It was a fun filled marathon!
 I do most of my shopping online, so it was nice to try on some different styles and see how they work. Well, except for these jumpsuits. 

I loved these styles I spotted at the mall, but they did not meet the Kelly stamp of approval!
I also had these furry faces to keep me company. Though their love for Aron far outweighs their tolerance of me, I cherish them just the same. 

I am so thankful to have these wonderful friends in my life. They made my week without Aron much more enjoyable.

I am also thankful to have Aron back home :) 
Have a fabulous Friday!

Lovely

Hello Again,

I hope you are all having a wonderful Wednesday! I wanted to share some photos I snapped of these lovely trees. Are these cherry blossoms or crabapple trees? I should know this.

These were taken outside my doctor's office! Beauty can grow in the strangest places....
Have a lovely day,
Adrienne

Full Moon Tattoo & Horror Festival 2013

Hello Again,

We had a fantastic time vending at the Full Moon Tattoo and Horror Festival in Nashville! I am very late with this post, since the convention took place over a month ago!

 I wore my favorite pinup style dress for the festival.
Dress: Forever 21+ (sold out)
Jacket: Deb Shops
Hair Flower: Lola's Lovelies
Shoes: Ross (old)
Unfortunately, most of my photos from the festival are of the shitty iPhone quality. 

Here is Aron putting the finishing touches on our booth.

The show was extremely busy this year. One of the special guests was Norman Reedus, who plays Daryl on The Walking Dead. Mr. Reedus signed autographs from morning until night, and I hear he was very nice to all of his fans. 

One of my favorite parts of the show is checking out everyone's awesome tattoos. Here are a few of my favorites.
Hello Kitty Sugar Skull Art 
This awesome Buddy Holly/50s piece
These cool Jhonen Vasquez pieces
Tattoo Artists
 Beatlejuice
Adventure Time!

It was a great time, and a great convention. See y'all next year!
