Shoes! Silk! and Shorts! What did I just say? Hotnesss!

Silk in warm weather? what??  I use it as a transitional, evening. When the nights are not too cold, but not too hot. When you just want luxury and comfort all at once.

Tis time here in Los Angeles to bring out the toes. For you who still have snow… enjoy your uggs!

We have some snow too… but not in front of my house!…lol It is in the mountains.

Today it was in the high-mid 70’s, and I had to bring out the toes… I wore my super comfy Soft Wedges. I noticed that I didn’t have much choice of Sandals after my last closet clean up… I gave all my peep-toe heals away because I couldn’t wear them with my back in so much pain. But wedges! And I’ve now grown to love thick healed peep-toe shoes too! OMGoodness, a whole new world for me.

Stilettos will ALWAYS have a part of my closet… but this is a whole new adventure.  So today I wore wedges..first time in a VERY long time.

Check out these thick healed shoes… You can wear them with some cute shorts, a silk flowy (did I just make up a word again?)  blouse. Ooooh child!

Avi and Jo

Avi and Jo from Cupid and Eros, both are very sweet, diverse, positive, high spirited and greatly skilled people. They are a great duo, power partners I say.  I will tell you a bit about them…

Avi Glijansky, the producer/director/writer of Cupid and Eros is Venezuelan via parents. Born and raised in Philly, moved to New York to attend Film School.  He writes, produces and directs Cupid and Eros.  He is witty and very passionate about his work. You can view his details and though as you see the episodes.

He currently lives in Los Angeles, with his Lady and an awesome dog.  His drive to make Cupid and Eros reminded me that passion is only the beginning of making your dream a reality.

So what is Cupid and Eros? The same god?

Josh and Jo

“Cupid and Eros are two names of the same god, they are in fact colleagues, each the god of love in their respective pantheon.  They still match up mortals and do their best to stem the tide of infidelity and divorce, but besides their common mission they are as different as night and day. Cupid is the original “nice guy”; sweet, charming, but constantly in the “friend zone”.  Eros on the other hand is sexy as hell, and irresistible to anything with a pulse – mortal, god, or anything in between.  He’s the ultimate romantic, she’s the ultimate personification of passion and unbridled sensuality.“

Cast: Josh Heine, Jo Bozarth, Kiera Anderson, and Phillip Ward

Their current three episodes you can view on MingleMediaTV  Cupid and Eros
and their new season begins January 24, 2010.

Paul and Jo

Jo, whom I call the muse, the actress, plays Eros. Her talent makes Eros the hot and sensual goddess. Jo is sweet and kind, Eros…you have to see to find out. I can only tell you that she is able to change persona in her roles.

Jo Bozarth began acting “on the side to satisfy the need for creativity” while obtaining her degree in psychology. She has worked with many independent features films. Including her own film which she co-wrote and co-produced; Ofelia and Joe. She plays the part of  her mother in a love story that portrays a Mexican woman and an American man dealing with the barriers of language as they fall in love while working on the same Vineyard in 1960’s California. Talk about history in the making. A bilingual short film.

Avi and Jo also work on An Evening With Eros. A humorously skilled mini that allows you to have just that, an evening with Eros and her thoughts as she answers godly questions.

I met to awesome people. Avi and Jo. I say you can view their godly work, their current three episodes on WebTV  Cupid and Eros. Their new season begins January 24, 2010.

Thank You Avi and Jo. It was awesome getting to know you.

Keep posted as I will continue to follow these two through their season of Cupid and Eros.

 “This [small] exhibition explores representations of Mexican archaeological objects and sites made from the Colonial era to the present.”

The Objects in the exhibition portrayed Mexico’s Mexico’s indigenous civilizations being overtaken by the European conquerors. The Objects tell an emotional story of fascination, fear, “Eradicating populations, destroying monuments, and suppressing native religions.”

This exhibition, “created over the past five centuries by explorers, archaeologists, and artists who have in one way or another used Mexico’s Pre-Columbian past as a vehicle for their journeys.”

A wonderful Exhibit to see. Running until March 27, 2011

Information Gathered from Attendance and The Getty Research Institute pamphlet.

In my Journey of loving living life (try saying that 10xs), I’ve learned that everything has a process. I am still learning that everything has a process at age 28, oh wait, 29 now…  Can you believe this?   I would think by know that the phrase/thought “there is a process to asking for things” is ingrained into my thought process… but no… I still forget.

Like yesterday, I become excited about an idea I had. After speaking to someone about my idea, I was quickly informed that there was a method to asking to get my idea accomplished. Kudos to that someone.  I re-learned that there is a method to asking. Asking for things… Simple right? Which brings me back to basics.

I began to think of rules I learned in grammar school. I.E:  How to do ask to go to the bathroom?

1. Raise your hand
2. Wait until you are spoken to
3. Have to say “May I PLEASE”
4. Get the Big PINK key
5. Get a hall pass…
6. Continue to follow directions.

So why is it that at age 29, I forgot how to ask for something?

Let me know what you think…(leave a comment)

Have you ever had a Dutch Pancake?

I recently was taken by my mom to Solvang. A city about 2.5 hours away from Los Angeles, CA. A Dutch town, small and super nice during the holidays.  And we had breakfast in this little home cooking place, I truly enjoyed.

There is shopping, and so many little knacks to buy. It is cold at this time of year… but you can only imagine how this place looked during the spring.

We were walking in the cold and I think we were too brave. LOL.

The entry to this city actually reminds me of a City in Guatemala in called San Lucas.. one of my favorite spots. It is the most amazing entry to a city. Big HUGE green Christmas Trees and behind then super awesome long vineyards!

And did I mention, the ride going up from Los Angeles. It is Superb!
It is long, so you have to take a break like every 30 mins… But you can walk and stretch… and that is why there is shopping right? LOL

Here are some of our trip pics.

Do you ever want to start off your day with something Sweet but afraid of the calories?

I did today. It is raining outside, and oatmeal although wonderful, was a bit to cliche for me today. I know right.. food being “cliche” … hey hey now It was cute. lol 😀

So I looked in my fridge and saw two buns left over from last nights dinner.

All you need for this breakfast are four things:

1. One Egg
2. Milk
3. Cinnamon/Nutmeg 
4. Fruit 

I mixed the first three ingredients (just enough milk for your liking). Dunked the bread in. Sliced a bit of butter (smidgen) and placed in pan. Then I Placed the soaked bread in the pan.  Let them brown, added some Blueberries and Some light syrup. TADA!! food ready! 🙂  AND of course! I added a cup of milk on the side. It was a bit crunchy, soft inside, very tasty and I helped decrease the calories with the light syrup.  SOOO yummy! Enjoy!

There is music… then there are vocals!

Being a choir chick, I’ve grown super fond of the show Sing-Off. Where every weak you can here
