Jeff Friesen. updated!

It's no secret I'm completely addicted to Etsy.com. I've made some prettty fab purchases so far this year, and a couple more I'll post to show off as soon as they get to me!
This is something I haven't purchased YET. I stumbled on Jeff Friesen's work while I was looking on Etsy's Shop Local for Halifax. I love this guy's sense of humour!

Jeff is a Halifax based photographer. His etsy shop has a series of "Wild Life Prints". They are so clever, fun and beautiful.

I put a couple of my favourites together on photoshop to show you, and I was being REALLY picky to choose the ones I loved best. Narrowing it down to 12 isn't bad is it?


I'm planning on buying 4 prints, but I'm having trouble deciding. I know I want the lion for sure :)


But Seriously guys, check out his stuff!!

UPDATE:
Thanks to some of my loyal blog followers (hehe), I recieved 3 of these prints for my birthday! I just purchased the Lion and recieved it today, along with a bonus print with 2 bunnies!! I love them! They really brighten up my grey powder room.
Thank you!!
My bunnies! I just need to find a good home for them:)

trying my best to skip the country...

I'm stuck in Vancouver. I flew Toronto-Vancouver with no problems other than a splitting headache. I got off in Vancouver for a short walk then reboarded. When we were about to push back the pilot informed us there was a problem with a fuel pump. 3 hours later they tell us it can't be fixed that night, bummer. 3am Vancouver=6am Toronto, and Julia had no sleep... I may have had a slight breakdown at this point. haha. Air Canada got everyone hotel rooms and I ended up at the Delta in a lovely room. I woke up this morning only to find my flight was delayed again from 11am to 2pm. At least I had a nice view from my hotel room.

here's a couple pics from my lovely send off at the Jays game.

Lovely view of the marina:

Cat Love.

These are my fav commercials right now, so cute!

Chop chop.

Here you are, my new hair cut/colour thanks to my very talented cousin, Melissa!

don't mind the fly aways, I wasn't as awake at 8:30 this morning as I thought I was.

I REALLY wish I did this sooner!!
Likey?

For good or evil?

Lately my blender has only been used for evil. When I say evil, I mean evil on my hips.
I can keep weight off all winter, but as soon as the sunshine hits it's beers on patios and wine every other night of the week, and those tasty as blended alcoholic drinks.... talk about vices!!

Tonight, I'm feeling a little under the weather I thought I would use my blender for some good. For dinner I made a smoothie, it was really filling and YUMMY!


ingredients
3/4 cup (175 mL) low-fat plain yogurt
1/2 cup (125 mL) skim milk (tonight I used vanilla soy! yum!)
1 banana
1/2 cup (125 mL) fresh or frozen berries

270cals, (+25 for using soy instead, oops lol) and it's packed with vitamin D! Bring on the happy.

Antler Ring.

First I thought of how much I liked these rings, then I thought of how much my dear Kate would like these rings, then I thought of how much I would like to share these rings with everyone I know.

Toronto based artist Anneke van Bommel makes wonderful things. period. I like her sense of humour in her design.
Check out her etsy for totally amazing and affordable jewelry and art.
