St. Patrick's Day Kitty

My boyfriend and I  found a cat at Walmart today. It was living in the shopping carts.


Now we have a new pet. She was hungry!


Time to think up a name. :)

*Update: We decided to name our cat "Cat". She was the coolest cat I've ever had but she disappeared one day. :( She was so friendly, I hope someone else found her and took her in.

Snow

This past week Fort Wayne got just a little bit of snow. Okay, we got a TON of snow. The whole town basically shut down. Everything was closed. Perfect time for photos, right? Right.



















Music Monday Mania!


I recently started following Urban Outfitters on Facebook. And what did I see on my news feed today? 

THIS:


I was like, "WHAT?"
I had to check it out. What did I find?
That it's pretty freakin' awesome. And the best part? You can download all the songs for FREE!


For more music from Urban Outfitters check out their blog. They also have a music section on their blog where you can listen to and download a 20+ song playlist {also FREE}. They even have UO Radio, that you can stream on your computer.


And... because I'm a big blog slacker, here's some more new music I have found recently. Hope you enjoy.


James Blake.

Sexy man. Sexy voice. Sexy song.
'nough said.



Artist: James Blake
Album: James Blake {available 2/15/11}


 Vanity Theft.

This song got stuck in my head the first time I heard it. I can't deci-i-i-de if it's catchy or just annoying. Either way, they're adorable and I love the retro look of the video. {I'm always a sucker for retro} Plus the bass player is Miranda from Lizzie McGuire {actress Lalaine}


Artist: Vanity Theft
Song: Anatomy 



Two Door Cinema Club.

Their song, I Can Talk gets stuck in my head too... Because it's awesome!


Artist: Two Door Cinema Club
Album: Tourist History {2010}



The Kills.

I had heard of The Kills before but I never really listened to them. When a friend posted their video for Tape Song on Facebook last week, I gave it a listen.

I said to myself, "Hey, I know this song." And I've been listening to it a lot ever since.

They have a new single out now called Satellite which will be on their new album, Blood Pressures {drops April 5th in the U.S.}

  For updates about their new album and to stream their latest single visit their website.


Artist: The Kills
Album: Midnight Boom {2008}
Song: Tape Song



...I've saved the best for last {In my opinion} 


The Naked and Famous.


They only have two songs available in the U.S. right now but they are both amazing. Check out their website for another video and info on where you can  purchase the songs they do have available.


Album: Passive Me Aggressive You {avail. March 2011}

Point Richmond, CA Part One: Little Louie's




       While in California my sister, Jessica took me to Little Louie'sa little deli and cafe in downtown Point Richmond.

 



Jessica got the Chicken Breast Panini {w/pesto, tomato, & spinach} She let me have a bite. I was yum, yum, yummy! You can't go wrong with pesto.



She suggested I get the 49er Hamburger {w/bacon, avocado, & jack cheese}. So I did. Gotta take big sis's advice. :) And I was glad I did. Oh so glad.



It says avocado, but whoa! AVOCADO! There was half and avocado on there. It was creamy and buttery, delicious!




Now that's a hunka hunka burnin' love right there. I couldn't wait to take a bite.
Chomp!


You've got a little something... Right. There.



We went back for lunch again a few days later... and both got the 49er.
