Out of Season

Seeing as this blog has turned into somewhat of a gongshow it seems only right to post pictures from when I was mid-Whole30 about, oh, 2 months ago.  WHAT IN THE WORLD? And what's Whole30 you may be asking yourself? A sugarless story that left me 12lbs lighter for another time.

Well I did tell you I lost the camera, right?

With that in mind I bring you sequins in early spring with a side of tossed salad hairdo.  It all started when I spotted a new neighbor. Okay so I haven't actually seen the neighbor, just the neighbor's ride.  And if you're following me on Pinterest or the other various social networking sites then you know this is DREAM RIDE TERRITORY UP IN HERE.
Checking to see if the coast was clear, I sidled up to Exhibit A. 
Which, in my perfect world, would be turquoise and have a surfboard hanging out the back.
And fuzzy seats, sherpa fuzzy seats. And a rainbow rug. I'll stop with the clichés now.
Another neighbor down the street emerged from his garage with a WTF are you doing
in front of that beater in your shiny sweater young lady?
And no my teeth are not yellow we just don't know how to work the camera.
Word.
Aaaaaand then I almost met the owner of this thing before scurrying off into our pal's garage.
Beach living, folks. Here you have it.

  20. Ummmm, more info on the Whole3o please. How? what? when? Is it easy to stick to? Can you work out with it? Did you have to eat the same meal 75 times in a week? How do you feel now that it's done? Are you able to keep it off? Cravings gone?

    Only a few little questions...lol!

    You would just be a blast to hang out with... I know it. Lots of laughs. There is a junior at my daughter's high school who drives one of these things. He's got the dreadlocks and everything. I think he's a stoner but he looks like a surfer dude meets Bob Marley. xo

  26. Carrie, I have to say...

    you are absolutely GORGEOUS and also quite adorable when you smile SO BIG.

    Not that you aren't gorgeous already, but wow, that second pic is STUNNING. I don't think I have ever seen you grinning with teeth showing in your posts before. Correct me if I am wrong.

    Also, ride is the bomb diggity bomb. If there is such a thing.
