twenty-one

Hey everybody! I am twenty-freakin-one today.
That is super crazy old...to me...at least...don't kill me...kbye.
My mom has an awesome post you need to read, here.
It's awesome, because it is about me. See? Awesome!
In honor of my special birthday, because let's face it,
today is the most important day of the year...
I will be highlighting 21 freakin awesome things...w00t!

1. My mom helped me come up with the perfect design solution for this foolish/bomb frame.
2. The "B" looks uh-mazing. Loooove it.

3. Ted took me on date (like he does every Friday) to an awesome little Pizzeria on Main St. in Mesa. Finding sweet restaurants on Main St. is the best.
4. The had the coolest decor. Check out these neat chairs. I want the white one.

5. The tables were awesome too! You could write whatever you wanted on it. I was about to right, "Pocket Edward for President"...but Edward likes to keep a low profile. You know how it is.

6. The pizza was definitely the best I have ever tasted. If you live in Mesa, you must visit "Queen's Pizzeria". You will not be disappointed. I told the owner I would blog about it. He didn't recognize me. I was totally surprised. Srsly.

7. I tried Canolli for the first time. Mmmm sweet ricotta cheese inside of fried crap.

8. Ted can blow fire from his mouth now. It is awesome. Apparently. I mean, check it out.

9. Ted bought me my first Latte bowls from Anthropologie! They making eating more fun. If that is even possible. And, it is...

10. My mom and I hit up the garage sales and I found this antique lamp for 2 bones! Don't hate.

11. I also found this milk glass candle holder .(I told you I would find friends for the cake stands) I remembered that my home girl Ann Marie likes to invert here candle holders, so I did too!

12. Look, the BIRDS AND THE B'S in the kitchen!

13. I found a pair of vintage birds at a garage sale a couple months ago. They were pretty much hideous, but they were hand made in the 20's, and they were fifty cents, so I bought them. My mom and I sanded them down, and then painted them black to have a silhouette effect. Since my mom helped me, I gave her the other one. Because I am nice.
14. That oval frame used to be a clock, but the clock died so we punched out the face and made it a frame. Yep. Straight up punched it. In the face. Like true gangstas.

15. So people steal hubcaps off our car. Ted says it fell off, but I know it is the people above us. They are mad that I stole their bandwidth for so long, that they yoinked my lame-spice hubcap.

16. This fell down and broke in half. My dad is awesome, and fixed it. Because he is cooler than most dads. And he can glue stuff better than anyone.

17. The dining area arrangement is finished! Finally! It's not like we ever eat at the table, but that's besides the point. Yay!

18. Ted made dinner...who knew he knew how to cook? I think guys pretend they can't cook just so they can bum around. At any rate, Ted makes good waffles...and breakfast burritos. Which proves my theories: Guys cook BREAKFAST AND CAN GRILL.

19. Why did I upload this picture twice? Anyway, my car is an old person's car. I can park in the senior parking area without getting caught because I park next to 3 other cars that are twins to my car. True story.

20. This is the key to your husband letting your go garage saling every week. Buy him something from time to time. Ted collects leather bound classics...and I found him 3 books for 5 bucks.

21. Look where I found Pocket Edward as I was about to cook dinner. I know who is behind this attempted homicide. His name starts with a "T" and ends with a "ed". You best watch your back "T"-"ed"...Pocket Edward is pissed.

My friend Niki did something on her birthday that was super cute, so I am borrowing the idea. Your job is to leave me a comment, telling me something you love about me. It's my birthday, make me smile :)
