Our Wedding Registry Revealed No. 1

I love being married to J. 
He's charming, handsome, appreciative, absurd... Oh how long the list goes.
But with our marriage came lots of gifts.
Lots of kitchen gifts. 
Talk about my little heaven. 
We have an amazing kitchen and lots of new tools and gadgets to work with.
So, to push myself to use them all...
And to share my new favorites and recipes with you
I will do my new Wedding Registry Revealed series of posts. 

J wakes at 5:00 am every weekday. 
While I am not obligated to rise at the same time, I am a morning gal and
find it easier to rise than to fall back asleep.
But by 7:00 am, my post workout coffee is a necessity.

This little tool, the Nespresso Frother, has made me a coffee snob. 
Coffee is not coffee without frothy goodness atop its energy laden self. 

Check out this beauty... It's tasty, but dangerous.
 A coffee without froth is just some flavored water in my snobby little mind now. 
But Starbucks has gone nothing on Ambucks. 
So really, I'm sticking it to the man right? 


I'm a coffee with a packet of Truvia and topped with frothy goodness... 
How do you take your coffee??

Fancy Friday... Stagecoach edition!

This weekend my Mama Bird and I are off to Stagecoach, a HUGE two day country concert extravaganza just over an hour from my hometown... I cannot begin to tell you how excited I am. So excited, in fact, I'm going to spend my entire Fancy Friday talking about the fanciness I feel for Stagecoach!

Hanging out with Mama Bird all day
(just wait for the ridiculous pictures!)
The amazing line-up
Sleeping in with no boys playing loud movies in the mornings. 
Giggling to sleep much too late at night. 
Riding matching John Deere beach cruisers with baskets. 
My cowboy boots. 
(rhinestone cowgirl anyone?) 
Driving Daddy's truck to ensure our cowgirl street cred. 
A cold beer on a hot spring day in the heat stricken area of Indio. 
Laying out by the pool. 

And we are off! 
See you all on Sunday with ridiculous stories and pictures I am sure!

(on a side note: I promise next week is going to be a better blogging week... 
I have lots of ideas and no time to put them out there for all of you!)
