The Rexburg Gangster

Nope, it's not me.
(and not Austin either...)

Although I'm tearing up my CNA class.
I don't know why I took that photo. 

But my mom knows me well, she got me this bag to carry all my nursing stuff :)

However, if you come by the Spori Building at campus... you might find the gangster hanging on the wall:

This is the time of year a friend taught me to appreciate back in 2010. The communication majors have a showcase of their photoshop 101 class (or something or other.) No, I am not bashing the communications, I am simply enjoying the class at our school, and some of the gems that pop up haha. Especially those small town gangstas who think they gonna blow da place up (all 5 miles squared of it here.) ;) And yes this was probably illegal to take a photo of their art.

I have to say, I have been taking full advantage of the Print Lab since realizing I won't be able to in a month! In the brown liquid --I started etching my U.S. Map plate, and that tub is almost the size of me! You can barely see it in there, in red.





I was feeling a bit of the Winter Blues, and sad about leaving school. I didn't feel too motivated after getting done with my BFA to make much art, then I picked up this newspaper and got back on it!


Austin made some super yummy tri-tip again, and Broulim's (our grocery store) started carrying nice cheeses... so we've been all excited to cook all over again :)


I've been missing some shortbread (random craving right?) and a great friend shared with me her gluten-free recipe. SUPER simple too! Check it out under the gluten-free section of our Recipe page, and the tri-tip is under the Main Dishes. (Mom got me that awesome heart cookie pan!)


(I should really start carrying my camera around, sorry for the cheap cell phone picks this week!)

Until next time, Rejoice in this Day like the Gangsta!

To Be Honest.

I've been thinking a lot, and a lot has been going on.  Lorde radio on Pandora is a good way to zone out. So is sewing, and doing all those other mindless activities I love, and that keep me happy. I haven't written on this blog because to be honest, it's been difficult lately. To get the sob story quick and out of the way, I've been in a self-pity mode, and super down on myself. I had a very difficult time at BYU because of a crappy life occurrence that made the decision to leave the best decision of my life. It was hard to get my BFA between the BYU's when I transferred, and I couldn't work on a second diploma I was seeking. I ended up with the most amazing BFA situation though, and that has been a blessing. (And the most awesome thing happened too, obviously. --marriage! I would never ever change that!) The last year into my BFA I found out definitive stuff about my dystonia, including no children. And the nursing program chase has not be

Grateful.

Austin has been the best support. I definitely married out of my league.  He's been very proactive in finding lots of healthy things for my recommended diet (by the neurological disorder peeps, and an intolerance.) because my hemidystonia has had less spasms and cramps. As of lately, brown rice bread!  Seriously, it's great even if you don't need wheat-free. It's a nice change of pace! It's sweet and light. .:Recipe Here:. We grind our own brown rice to save money. Winco here in Idaho has  the best deal for bulk brown rice :)  Here's a crazy picture of my hand, this was actually the first spasm/cramp I've had in a bit. (Haha, least my nails are painted ;) ) This is actually why (for those of you who've asked) Intaglio will not be my last degree. I was informed that I've got a good chance of this happening to my right side too.  Art might get interesting! But I plan to keep doing it as a career too, no matter what!

Moonrise Bunnies

Thank you for the chocolate bunnies Carmen Family!! we may or may have not remembered it was easter? Such a Surprise! In sad news, our favorite video store is going out of business. We loved getting recommendations from the people who worked there. Austin and I had no idea our favorite date spot was going out and went to go get a movie.... and we ended up with this sweet stack!! (They sold them waaay discounted. We got all of these for the price of two new DVDs!)  It was funny because when we walked in and realized what was going on, we freaked out because we wanted our favorite movies! Everything Illuminated and Moonrise Kingdom (among others but these were the first ones that came to mind) And Everything Illuminated was gone! Austin freaked because he couldn't remember what Moonrise Kingdom was called. He said... EDWARD NORTON. WHICH ONE WAS THAT?? Of course I look at him like wtf are you talking about the Hulk or the Painted Veil or something? Fig
