Sunday Social

Sunday socials are starting to become the norm around this blog. I can't say that I hate it. ;) Have you met Ashley or Neely yet? They're actually pretty great and host this fun little link up of 5-6 random questions every week!

1. Top 3 favorite kinds of food

• First and foremost, my grandmother's grilled cheese. Cracker Barrel's sourdough bread, and thick slices of Land o' Lakes white American cheese. Yes, it might be a heart attack waiting to happen, but it's the yummiest thing I've ever put in my mouth!
• Secondly, now that I've drooled all over you, cheese pizza, light sauce, stuffed crust. (picky eater over here!)
• Third, I'm really getting into edamame lately. So yummy and healthy! I just don't understand it!

2. First 3 things you do in the morning

• Usually first thing, my sweet sweet baby boy wakes me up and I get to feed him. Have you met my puppy/almost 4 year old yet?

• Then I make myself a cup of coffee. I used to make 2, but then I got an expensive Keurig and had to start monitoring myself. It's ok though, because I just ordered the little refillable cup so I can make as much as I want now!
• Check Instagram/Blogger/Facebook/Twitter... No, I am not addicted to technology. #justkiddingialwayswillbe

3. Last 3 things you do at night

• Brush my teeth, duh!
• Snuggle close with Colston. He loves sleeping in between my legs!
• Watch an episode of whatever show I'm on at that time. Right now it's How I Met Your Mother, but I'm getting close to the end again!

4. 3 TV shows you NEVER miss

• How I Met Your Mother
• Big Bang Theory
• Parks and Rec

I could list like 80 more (especially on HGTV alone), but luckily for you, it only asked for 3. ;)

5. 3 places you want to visit

• Greece
• DisneyWorld!
• Washington DC

6. 3 people you can always count on

• My sister
• My mom
• My dad

Of course I'm just going to use family on that. They're all so amazing and took such amazing care of me while I was living in Louisiana. Love you!

Making Perfect Magnets

Having recently moved, I didn't have any perfect magnets ready for our cute little refrigerator. Of course, when I saw this easy little magnet project floating around the internet, I knew I had to go for it. I grabbed 5 magnets from our local pizza joint and went to work. Here's everything you'll need for the little project:

Once you have all your supplies together, it is super easy to peel back the actual advertisement part of the magnet.

Measure out the paper to match the size of the magnet. Mine was 2x6 inches so I used my paper cutter to make it the same size.

After cutting your paper, apply a very generous amount of Mod Podge to the paper on the magnet. And if you don't have a paintbrush, totally feel free to dip your finger in. ;)

Apply the paper directly on top of the magnet, and BOOM. Perfectly cute little magnets:

I'm definitely considering adding some Cricut elements to spice them up a bit. I'd love to know if you tried them out. They're so fun and easy to make! 

Tuesday 10!

I'm sure you've all met Lena by now. She's the super awesome mom with tattoos and a great outlook on life. You know who I'm talking about? Just in case you don't, here's the link to her profile. Seriously go follow her, and then link up with her Tuesday 10s! They are the perfect prompt to get you in the mood to blog. Today's prompt is your 10 dream jobs. As a college student figuring life out, I'm super excited to share all this with you! We're gonna start with the somewhat realistic ones and go from there.

Something I seriously love about graphic design, is all the stinking options it'll give me once I graduate school. However, these are ranked in the order I would actually want to do them.

1. Win the lottery and never ever have to work ever again. Totally realistic for someone who doesn't even play the lottery.

2. Website/blog designer who illustrates children's books and makes super cute prints like Diana on the side. This is actually my exact goal upon leaving school. Yeah, I'm kind of crazy.

3. Someone who does the graphics and illustrations for cartoon movies. Especially Christmas movies. I would LOVE to make Christmas movies. You would think I'd know what that's called.

4. This one's a little silly, but have you ever seen Aerie's undies? They're just so cute, and the fabrics are so fun and colorful. I'd actually really love to design them. But if it means moving to their headquarters in Pennsylvania (yuck!), I might have to change my mind.

5. App developer. Hook me up with your great ideas. ;)

6. The person who designs the games on the back of cereal boxes. I hear they make some serious paper.

7. Something in advertising. Probably somewhere along the lines of logo making and flyer involvements. This one actually sounds the most boring to me surprisingly.

8. Coffee shop owner. All the free coffee I want? Definitely a good option.

9. An international flight attendant on the planes my husband flies. Free vacations every week? Oh yeah.

10. And then of course, the stay at home mom. I think this is so far down, just because I don't have kids yet. I'm sure when the time comes, this will seriously be all that I want to do.
