And I got my first teaching interview!

Well as many of you know, I have been completing a Masters Program in Education this past year and I am almost done! I graduate May 19th to be exact! Today was very exciting because I was contacted for my first interview! Now I know I have a lot of readers who are teachers and I want to know what you think I MUST KNOW before interviewing! Very excited for this happy day!

Daffodil Weekend on Nantucket!

From early-April to mid-May, millions of daffodils of every color, shape and size bloom on Nantucket. With Spring, comes the Annual Daffodil Festival on Nantucket. My favorite weekend highlights include the Annual Window Decorating Contest, the Antique Car Parade, the Annual Daffy Hat Pageant
and of course the Daffodil Tailgate Picnic!
The boyf and I are off to the Island to spend time with family
and enjoy the weekends festivities!
I'll be sure to take lots of pictures!

Radiant...Bronze The Smart Way!

I'm Irish and covered in freckles, needless to say, I DON'T GET TAN!
But I can't deny that I sometimes I would kill for a bronzed look.
Enter self-tanning products!
Now you have to be picky when you are attempting a faux-bronze look,
nothing worse than looking oompa loompa orange.
To get a subtle sheen look I use these select products:



Clarins Delectable Self Tanning Mousse with SPF 15!
Love this when I am going for a Portofino Tan Look!
Lancome's Flash Bronzer -- Perfect for the face!
L'Oreal Paris Sublime Bronze Gel --
Perfect for all over the body!
KAG and besties LM & BAG,
showing a hint of color!

Do you use self tanning products?!

The Flip...

Well I just bought a Flip Camcorder, so excited! They are small enough to fit in your pocket, which means it is easy enough to take wherever you go.
I can't wait to take some videos and share them on the blog!
How fab?! Do any of you own a Flip? How do you like it?!

Kim Kardashian and the CRACK!

I'll admit it, I am a HUGE fan of Keeping Up With The Kardashians and of Kim - the show is one of my favorite guilty pleasures! However, when I saw this photo on People.com, I was like "Kim, why, just say no to CRACK?!" I don't know about you but I think this is a little much,
especially for a girl with a TEAM of stylists?!

Chick Lit!

With all my Grad School reading, I have been on a real "chick lit" kick these days! I am loving Mary Kay Andrew's books and am currently reading my third one, Savannah Blues.
All of her novels take place in the South and they are juicy!
I even get a laugh at some of the "Yankee" jokes!
Have any of you read her books?
