thanks a lot mother nature.

well contrary to yesterday's announcement of our travel plans. the northeast decided to take a dump all over our weekend getaway.

according to weather.com and my news anchor dad... "Winds will intensify on the "backside" of this deepening cyclone from northern New England through Upstate New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, northern Virginia, and West Virginia." Deepening Cyclone?? count me out!

so now onto more important things... like how to pay for rent in a few days???

literally, i squealed!

i know i know, my previous posts mentioned how we weren't really big on the whole hallmark valentine's day thing, but apparently jeremy decided that was getting too cliche' to say and really surprised me... i mean REALLY!

saturday my parents and i visited the tampa museum of art - it's incredible. i'm so proud of the city getting it's act in gear and truly making it's name known. lightrail, museums, theater, sports, schools, etc. we met jeremy later for lunch and he so nonchalantly pulled this goodie out from behind him.

i have been admiring the leather work by the talented seth daniels {imperial wolf} for quite sometime - you can see why!


leather work by imperial wolf!
back wallet art by horsebites!

sunday morning mr. amazing made his lady breakfast in bed and after a few hours of peace and quiet, i was whisked off to what was the most disturbing and entertaining spectacle so far this year- the florida state fair! wowza.

first the pretties:





now for the ???

yes, you read that correctly "doughnut burger"! these guys
don't mess around... i really wanted to see what the deep
fried pepsi was all about, but i went oreo instead (so good).
i was going to say some things about the hormone injected
turkey legs, however that guy had the sweetest smile.

hope everyone else had a fun day, if not because it was valentine's, then well, just because.
