Lunch Box

Do you know anyone that carries a lunch box?  Well I do, and his name is MY HUSBAND.  And he wants a new one.  I think this one is the coolest lunch "box" I have ever seen, but I really can't fathem spending $45 on a lunch tote.  But isn't it awesome?

Update on 27 in 2011

So I haven't yet provided any updates on my 27 in 2011, so just thought I would share!

1. top secret - working on it
2. take banjo lessons (or start again) - haven't started
3. rock climb at least once a month - haven't started
4. run with Char at least once a week - done once (aka not doing so well)
   
5. try at least 2 new recipes a month - this was a typo, it was supposed to be a month and so far I have been doing just that.  Two a month (pics below)
6. floss daily - doing pretty well, flossing most days
7. get pictures organized (finish printing 2009, wedding photos, create photo books, etc.) - kinda
8. read 6 books - not doing so well

27. get a new blog up and going and post at least once a week - DONE! (at least partially)

So all in all I don't think I am doing great, so I think I need to keep it moving.  Here is some pics of what I have done.
Sewing project #1 January: fabric boxes for my brothers girlfriend who is a hairdresser.

Sewing Project #2 January: squeeky bone for my puppy

Learn to crochet and make cowl:

I also made a hat for Marsh and a ton of fingerless gloves, some for me and some for a friend.

Two new recipes in January: New recipe for cinnamon rolls and breakfast casserole

Two new recipes February: For valentines dinner we made filet au poivre and au gratin potatoes

So there is my little update.

I won!

My husband never wants to watch movies . . . I mean never!  I am not sure how, but I actually convinced him to watch a movie with me this weekend and it was AMAZING.  We watched Inception.  I thought it was really good . . . kinda Matrixy without the "powers" or whatever you want to call them.  Do you think they are going to make a sequel?  Kinda seemed like it.  But it was fun, the two five of us on the new couches together.  (five being hubby, me, the dog and two cats . . . yes everyone wanted to snuggle!

So, I am calling it a win for me!

These might be the coolest guitar bags ever!  Not that many of you (or myself either) go shopping often for guitar bags. Although $800+ for a bag might be a bit excessive.

Maybe someday I can get one for the hubby.
