Alexander McQueen

Alexander McQueen has to be my all time FAVORITE designer. No one has ever been able to go to the extreme he did with his sexy, over the top, eye popping creations.

Unfortunately, he committed suicide in the beginning of 2010, but his name lives on as Sarah Burton took over as creative director for the line.

 His fall 2009 line, the last before his death, is the darkest and most intriguing.

Further Seems Forever "Light Up Ahead" (Acoustic)



This song may sound a little cheesy, but anytime my energy is low, I listen to it and get right back up.

Cooking

As many of you may, or may not know, I love to cook. Even more, I love to EAT! I can find 5 different random things in a cabinet and make a meal out of it. For me, it's a fun and easy way to be creative. At one point, I was thinking about opening a restaurant. I don't usually have the patience to make all of the crazy cookbook stuff with 43578 spices, and directions. I stick with home cooking and let the ingredients do the work.

This first recipe is VERY quick and easy. I'll make a bunch of it and then store the left overs. It's great hot, or cold when pressed for time.



I don't have a name for this pasta salad...



Ingredients:

Pasta
Sausage (I used chicken sausage mixed with green peppers and onion. I' a bit of a birdetarian. Thats turkey and chicken, for those who don't know. Anddd... If you're vegetarian, you can use veggie sausage instead.)
Sliced Black Olives
Tomato
Feta Cheese

Simple directions :
You can use as much or as little of each ingredient as you'd like.

Cook pasta according to directions and strain
Cook or grill sausage (I grill mine) and cut into pieces
Cut up tomato
Add all ingredients into a bowl, including the cheese
Mix together
Done!

Living

"There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy."

Observations

It's so cute to watch old married couples talk to eachother, forget what they're talking about mid-sentence and then start talking about something as simple as the convenience of a phone for public use. The husband clapped his hands in sarcasm. Then he asked where he was and why he was there. Classic!

Fly Me Away



 

I love how one feathered piece can completely change an outfit. Very glam! I chose black feathers because it adds a touch of romantic goth.
