Most Expensive Bikini I Now Own

I was flipping through April's Vogue, when I pointed and said aloud, "I want that"!

I was referring to Lara Stone's body. (I kid.) Well.. it was both the bod and the bikini.

Normally, (until I am a millionaire, of course) a $560 bikini is out of the question. However, I had a credit at Louis Vuitton. The gold tassel keychain that my boyfriend got me as a birthday gift broke twice! So the store gave me a credit instead third time around...

Thus I am the proud owner of this most expensive ikat monogram bikini.

Happy face. End of story.

I Love My Keurig!

My boyfriend, who loves all things electronic and gadgety, has been pining away for a Keurig coffee machine, which brews single cups of coffee and tea. At $250, I thought this purchase may be slightly unnecessary. Plus, I am a big coffee drinker (2-5 cups depending on my day), so I was a little skeptical about this contraption. I like having a big pot of coffee ready in the morning...

But one Sunday afternoon, we found ourselves at Bed, Bath, & Beyond armed with 20% off coupons and decided to buy one! And I must admit, I absolutely love this thing!

It's so easy to use. Looks great in the kitchen. And the little "k-cup"choices are endless (and adorable)! Regular, decaf, chai latte, organic dark brew, apple cider, hazelnut coffee, Wolfgang Puck coffee.. it's really so much fun.

Just thought I'd share... we love our Keurig machine and have been sipping happily ever after!

Something To Try

Lately I've noticed that I have become increasingly interested in cooking and baking. Perhaps it's because I will be moving in with my boyfriend (this weekend!) and want to impress him with faboosh cooking skills.

As of now, my specialities are cheese omelets and funfetti cupcakes... which is not saying a whole lot!

But I am decent in the kitchen, and have always been my mom and grandma's aid during the holidays! I love watching cooking shows and can definitely do the basics, but I think it is time for me to really cook more. Like cooking from scratch... not boil water and put the pre-made ravioli in.

Here is a fun recipe that I saw on a domestic chic blog called Atlantis Home. Granted, it is a quesadilla, but at least it's a start!

BRIE, APPLE and ARUGULA QUESADILLAS

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

2 teaspoons apple cider

3 flour tortillas (white or whole wheat)

6 ounces Brie cheese, rind removed and cut into 1/4 inch thick slices

1 fuji apple, cored, peeled and cut into 1/4 inch thick slices

3 cups arugula

3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Combine mustard and cider in a small bowl; stir well.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Spread each tortilla with about 1 1/2 teaspoon of the mustard mixture. Place one tortilla mustard side up, in pan. Arrange one-third of cheese slices over half of tortilla; cook 1 minute or until cheese begins to melt. Arrange one third of apple slices over cheese; top with 1 cup of arugula. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Repeat process with remaining two tortillas.

Yummy!

Lady GuyGa

Lady Gaga graces the cover of Vogue Hommes Japan in drag as her male persona, 'Jo Calderone' (Joanne is Gaga's middle name). The shoot was styled by Gaga's stylist, Nicola Formichetti and photographed by Nick Knight.

Vogue writer Jo-Ann Furniss asks 'Jo',

"What is your relationship with Lady Gaga?", to which Jo answers,

"I met her at a shoot Nick Knight was doing. She’s fuckin beautiful, and funny, and interesting. I was a little nervous for Nick to start shooting. She said, “Don’t be baby, you were “born this way.” I took her out after. The rest is private".

Oooh so mysterious! I love Gaga and I'd love to watch her have sex with her alter ego Jo!! Is that weird?

Funfetti Fridays

Think I might whip up the ol' Funfetti cake tonight. I like making myself sick by eating an inappropriate amount of raw batter.

On a side note, my boyfriend thought that the little frosting tub was the cake mix.

He said something like, "Wow! I can't believe a whole cake comes outta' there!",

I was like "WHAT are you talking about?" and showed him the 1 pound box, eggs, oil, whole deal. I love it when boys have "blonde" moments. My boyfriend is always making fun of me, and it's just not fare!

It's 'fair'. I kid I kid.

He is soooo hot. I first fell in love with Beefy LaRue in 2006's Step-Up (dance movies are so inspirational by the way). And I think it's so cute that he's married.
