I'm mostly over at Wordpress now!

ETA: This is my new place, but I haven't moved in yet--it'll still be a few weeks. Gettin' an early start though!

A few recent pictures from my Wordpress blog :)

I'm in Ms. Magazine! (Sorry to those of you who have see this posted everywhere else, lol).

The weekend flew by. I've got more posts here.









( I love the beach. )

Yup, I'm liking Wordpress and will probably continue to update there.

I've transferred a few picture posts over to lavietoni.wordpress.com. I'm not sure if I'll stick to it or not, but I've been wanting to do a more simplified and organized photo blog. We'll seeee.

New from IKEA:





And a foot stool we're going to reupholster:



I bought it years ago but had been storing it at my parents' house and forgot about it until I went home.

Spring break in South Florida, Part 3.

As usual, I took pictures of Patrick's family's beautiful yard. Because I love it there, and it's half the reason I always feel so relaxed when I visit.

Spring break in South Florida, Part 1:

Brooke's bridal shower!

( Blenders, spoons, and colanders, oh my... )

Finally got the first roll of film developed from a new (used) camera! I have similar digital versions of some of these pictures because I wasn't sure this camera would work. I like the ones of Brother Micah, whom I feel some odd affection for despite his fire and brimstone insanity. I used to see him at UCF, now I see him at USF. He's everywhere!







( A long time coming. )

Part 2: At my parents' house.









( Under here. )

I had an amazing weekend!

Part 1 of several batches from my trip home. These are from St. Augustine.









( I took a million pictures. )

Pictures from around the apartment today. Since I'd rather do anything than focus on my school work. It's been pretty a quiet day, with Herman sleeping on my lap for most of it.



















(The film festival poster in the first picture is by Sandra Juto of Smosch)

Epic Valentine's post! I felt really glamorous last night and had to take 100 pictures. Most are blurry since we were in a really dark setting, but I feel they accurately reflect my own wine-induced tipsiness. It was a great night.

Ok, now I have to take Herman out and then truly get to work. Blah.

Taken in St. Pete, where I went to see Tim & Eric tonight! (But not in that building.)

Today's lunch could have been more flavorful if I'd taken a few additional steps, I'm sure. But I'll be damned if I'm not getting, like, 300% of my vitamins today:

Kale, sautéed in olive oil with garlic and onions; organic whole wheat couscous topped with vegetable broth and peas; clementines (which apparently ceased to be seedless in 2006 due to bees cross-pollinating them with other fruit, says Wikipedia); and blueberry green tea.







Next, I want to make my own marinara sauce and freeze it. I eat spaghetti pretty often and would prefer to do without all the sugar and other unnecessary stuff that's usually in it.

I have a lot to do, but strangely feel as rejuvenated as if it were New Year's Day. Let's hope that attitude doesn't disappear as soon as I start my school work.
