staying cool
You know how I said that this summer in Texas was hot, so hot in fact that the whole state just about burst into flames (this is no laughing matter, it really did), well it was, and it did. So basically The Husband did everything he could to stay cool, which meant water (I’m guessing his…

touristy bits & pieces
Behold… The Husband’s very first margarita. Ever. Almost thirty years old and never had a margarita. Deprived child. He loved it, which of course meant that he was trying to slurp it on down as fast as possible, but everyone knows that you can’t slurp a margarita down without… dun dun dun… B R A I…

a day at the ranch
{Texas BBQ} You would think that me being from Texas, and Papa being all about the hunting, that The Husband and I would be knee dip in camouflage, but nope, we’re not hunters. But somehow we still found ourselves at a hunting exposition in Texas (a friend was putting it on), which was kind of…

tacos & the walmart
I had tried to prepare The Husband for the heat but I don’t think he was aware of how truly hot Texas can get, especially this summer (it was a scorcher… literally). All he wanted to do was sit in the pool all day, everyday. Fine with me, that gave me some one on one time with…

Me in Texas (an introduction)
{source} My, my, my, how do you write a post as big as Texas? A little bit at a time, that’s how (and with absolutely no idea where to begin, hence the reason there’s been nary a peep from me for a week). So since I’ve been having a hard time getting this going, I’m…

raindrops on roses
And whiskers on kittens… you can’t really think of that without it putting you in a good mood, can you? It’s impossible to fight the cheeriness. Julie Andrews. Bless. Super glam, Mama, at Fabulous! (pasta not included) has asked me about some of my favorite things. And since I’ve been awake since 5am on this Sunday…

itchy feet
“And just out of curiosity, are you Irish or American who just lived in Ireland for a while?” Good question Shorty. It’s probably confusing sometimes times with all my New York, Boston, Texas, Dublin talk. And to be honest, sometimes The Husband gets confused too and he tells people that I’m Irish and this gets on…

Guess Who's Back…
Back again. Sara Louise is back. Tell your friends. (I just ganked Eminem’s lyrics a bit there) Yes my peeps I’ve returned to the wonderful world of Internet. In a very un-French like way, my wifi has been hooked up much earlier than expected. A wonderful surprise (French Yeah!) after a week of hell that…

International Day of Awesomeness
Today is my birthday. And since it is also this guy’s… Dan Quayle And this guy’s… Alice Cooper It pretty much makes it the greatest day of the year. I’m thinking of petitioning to turn it into an International Day of Awesomeness. Anyhoo, I’ve made a list, because I love those, a list of what…
It's Me, Sara Louise
