Cookies and Paint

This is a Smart Cookie. No, it doesn't make you smart, or at least I don't think it does, but if it did then AWESOME!!! Smart Cookie is just what the business is called, and I'll tell you right now that they are to die for! This specific cookie is their specialty and my most favorite cookie in THE WORLD! It's a Lemon Drop cookie. I suppose they melt down lemon candy and put it in the dough, or it melt in the oven as the cookie bakes...either way it's fabulous. The frosting is lemon, and it has lemon candy pieces in it. I bout 4 of these cookies for $5. Totally worth it. Whenever I'm with Holly and we're out around American Fork I always ask to go to Smart Cookie because these cookies are addictive. I suppose it is a good thing they are in American Fork and not very readily available to me, because if they were I'd have lemony love handles :)

Saturday I went to work in the morning and planted up two trays of Gaura and one tray of Bacopa <--- yuck! I seriously don't like the smell of Bacopa. It makes me feel ill. Anywho! Holly and Mitch came out and picked me up to spend the afternoon with them. We ate at this wonderful place in Pleasant Grove called Dickies! They specialize in barbecued foods and I had the most mouth watering pulled pork sandwich EVA!! Then we got Smart Cookies and went to their house. I spent some time painting Holly's office this amazing blue color that totally makes the room so much better. If you will take a moment to notice the old color... plech

I also received my early Birthday present from them. *drumroll* A CAMERA!!! Yes!! Now I can post pictures with my wordsiness!! So this picture of the gorgeous paint and roller was just toying around with the camera. I had so much fun! Thank you Holly and Mitch! I love spending my time with you two...and those unruly dogs of your's =]


This is more or less how the finished walls look. There are still some wet spots against the dry so it doesn't do it full justice, but it is fabulous. I totally want to have a room like that now. I told Holly that when I own a house every room will be painted completely different with hot reds, cool blues, happy yellows, misty lavenders, rosy pinks, flush greens, and other colors inbetween!! My front door will either be bright yellow, royal purple...or maybe fiery red!!!
