The Week in Review

Hey, long time, no see! My brother pointed out that I've been very much the absentee blogger this week, and I'm super sorry. Life's been full of little adventures this week, especially since Wednesday, so here's what's new:

Clip

Every year, just about this time, I get the itch. 

That itch to do something a little bit crazy, a little bit different, be a different person.

And, I'll admit it, most of the time, it gets taken out on my hair.

This time last year, my hair was a little past shoulder length, only weeks away from being chopped off (to my mother's chagrin and my friends' shock). Tomorrow I go back to the hairdresser with the same inspiration (today to my mother's chagrin, and tomorrow night to my friends' shock).

I'm beyond nervous, but excited as all get-out.

I'm thinking something along these lines. I can't wait.

Anybody other curly-headed girls ever gone pixie-cut? How'd it go? Let me know in the comments below!

A little bit of hair-prayer is appreciated.

Children of All Ages

Over the years, like any other youngster, I've daydreamed about skipping classes and running off to join the circus. And not just any circus. I'm talking one of those old-time circuses: the ones that artists, costumers, and historians dream about.
Alas, I remain firmly planted in the 21st Century, no sign of time-travel in sight.

Until then, I can always peruse old issues of National Geographic and daydream to my heart's content.

B, B, What Begins With B?

A little while ago, Cassey over at Blogilates posted an enthusiastic reaction to a pretty unique, 100% natural recipe. Using only a banana and (an) egg(s), one is supposedly able to make some super tasty and healthy pancakes.

Just in Time Friday

No kidding. If Friday had gotten here any slower , I might would have lost my marbles. It's been a good week, albeit long, but I was so ready for the weekend: sleeping in, working out, and catching up on (dare I say it?) homework. Dun dun duuuuuunnnnn.
