Lust List

So I thought to help me blog more, I would start doing a couple of weekly series. On Mondays I usually post what we did over the weekend so I thought Tuesday would be a good day for a "series" so to speak. I have deemed Tuesday the day I pull together my "lust list" aka things I am liking/think are interesting/laughing at/etc. Now some of you might assume the list will be filled with beautiful shoes and purses but I will try to diversify... key word: try.

So here's my first go at the list:

Things I'm Lusting After Lately:

1. Martha Stewart Glittered Pumpkins- I have been thinking about fall decorations for a while but with the house decorated in black and blue, most of my things aren't coordinating with fall colors. I found these pumpkins and have wanted to make but haven't made it to a craft store to buy glitter. They seem easy enough and would look nice in a bowl on the dinner table. I would probably do a couple green/yellow so they look like fall!


2. Photography Classes- I have been looking for a hobby that will transfer to all the nutso seasons here and think I am going to take a photography class. There is one through Boulder County that I can use our little point and shoot. It's a four week course starting mid November. The only caveot is that I have to change my drivers license to our address. I'm not sure I'm ready to give up my Texas license but it might be time.

I will not even begin to write what else I am lusting after in this category! (cough... Nikon D3000...cough cough) I read some blogs with great photos and if I like my class maybe it's worth making a future Lust List.

3. Chuy's Queso and Creamy Jalapeno- I like lots of things about Colorado but I don't like that they don't have classic Tex-Mex. How I miss the cheesy goodness that is queso and nothing taste better than two classic Texas ingredients mixed: Ranch and Jalapenos. Ugh, I'm salivating trying to just google a picture. Lovely Chuy's, why don't you move north?


4. A couch without slipcovers- So I told Brent a while back that I think I will feel like we have finally arrived when we own a couch that doesn't smother you when you sit on it. I feel like I am always wrestling with the couch. I have tried thick fabric slip covers, streachy fitted slip covers, and now just want to die the 90s green couch (of course this isn't an option but after Mom painted Brent's Halloween pants, anything seems possible).
