Six on Saturday (My Misc. Faves)

A few of my favorite things from this past week, in no particular order:
 
 
1.  Instant Cam app for the i phone. Creates Polaroid photos with cool filters and even prints text. Swoon. Had to stop myself from using this app on every photo I took this week. I can't seem to find a link on my laptop. Just search the app store on your phone/device.


2.  Started a new book. Liking it so far. And this may be odd, but I like the way the pages are ragged on the edge, rather than smooth. Does anyone know if there is a name for this? I know, I'm strange.




3.  It's official. I've fallen in love with the car we bought 2 weeks ago. Flaws and all. It's just so fun to drive!  No more check engine lights so far.....



4.  Want this Fossil purse bad. I've been trying to tell myself that I don't need it. I still love the leather one I got back in October. But it keeps whispering to me. The liner has a bird print. Seriously want!



5. Rented "Perks of Being a Wallflower". I can not rave about this enough. Have not read the book, but it's now on my list. It is amazing and sad and beautiful all at once. It lingered with me for days. And as I'm searching for quotes to use on this post, I'm amazed at how many great lines are in this movie/book. Let me know what you think if you watch it. And for my brother-We were so much like Sam and Patrick in our relationship through high school and as adults. I wish we lived closer and we could just hang out together more! I miss my BFF!

I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we’ll never know most of them. But even if we don’t have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel okay about them.           

6.  At at ZTejas for the first time. Amazing! I had a house salad with the Sesame Ginger Vinaigrette. I have been dreaming about this dressing for a week now. Will be going back just for this! And then came the Five-cheese macaroni and Achiote chicken. I'm not even going to try to explain how incredible this mac and cheese was. It's beyond words. How could I not have gone here before? Special thanks to Suzy for suggesting this place!
