I’d like to take this opportunity to profess my undying love for eggs benedict. Much like Maggie Carpenter in Runaway Bride, I used to think my favorite style of eggs was scrambled. But I’m now a changed woman… This past weekend, Dylan and I grabbed brunch with some past clients and I had the most AMAZING breakfast of. my. life. Eggs florentine (basically eggs benedict with the addition of artichoke hearts – YUM) at Mia Bella Trattoria in downtown Houston is a MUST for all you Maggie’s out there. And the bottomless mimosas didn’t hurt one bit either.
Tonight represents one of my toughest conundrums yet. Both Glee AND One Tree Hill air on the same night at the SAME time. Fortunately I can DVR one while watching the other, but I’m already stressed out about not being able to watch them simultaneously. :) By the way, I’ve decided that my favorite Glee character is, without a doubt, Artie. And then Kurt. And then Brittany. Who is yours?!
I’ve been on an obvious shoe kick lately. First my RunTones, then my random Nine West pump binge, and now I got me some Toms that I am in luuurve with. Which brings me to… Did you know all you brides out there have a ton of fun Toms shoes as options for your big day? Imagine not having to ice your feet at the end of your wedding night because you were comfy AND metro-stylish in your wedding Toms. :)
Now that I’m an adult, I have a much more frequent tendency to forget about important holidays. Mostly because I don’t get a day off for Abe’s birthday, and I don’t have my mom asking which types of candy I’d like in my Easter basket. But not to worry mom, I’ve already told Dylan he’ll need to assemble a nice little basket of Cow Tales and Spree this Sunday. And NOT hide it in the dryer. You always thought the dryer was an original hiding spot. ;)
Speaking of holidays, I’m naming today “Wash-the-Dog, Clean-the-Apartment, Re-Boot and Re-Focus” Day. It’s a holiday I need to take at least once a week. It’s funny… You’d assume that being your own boss frees you to make your own hours and power down whenever you want or need to. But photogs, represent… It never really goes that way. Today I’m committing to taking some of my life back. First? The dog and his mangy toe nails.
Song of the Week: Second Chance by Pete Bjorn and John. Apart from the major amount of cowbell in this song, there’s also a MAJOR amount of cowbell in this song. Which automatically makes it amazing. And happy. And jig-inducing. Check out the MP3 HERE, and the video HERE.
I’ll leave you with this little peek of Rachel & Travis’s wedding day, which was compleeetely blingin’. :) Look for it on the blog later this week!!
Happy Tuesday!!
Aimee - Brunch is my favorite meal ever! You haven’t had true southern Brunch until you have Shrimp & Grits. Backstreet Cafe has an awesome brunch. Those shoes are making me really looking forward to seeing the upcoming blog :)

I just recently started working at a breakfast restaurant and was getting bored with my normal scrambled breakfast, but like you I’d never had anything else.. HOWEVER.. I agree. I’m a changed lady. Eggs benedict with some delicious toast to soak up every last bite? I don’t think I’ll ever go back. love what you’re doing!
