View PostGuillermo Del Toro: At Home With Monsters Exhibit

Last night, my roommate and I went to the Guillermo Del Toro Exhibit at the Minnesota Art Institute. And I was insanely excited about this as I love horror, art, and movies from Guillermo Del Torro especially Pan's Labyrinth. And one thing that I love is how this is all from his Bleak House, which came about because his wife didn't want one of the pieces of art up in their kitchen so he ended up buying a whole new house just for his collection. And now going to lie, Rose and I have been trying to make our own exhibit to our favorite things in our townhouse quite similar to this. Maybe not to the same extreme but yeah.…
View PostSunset Cherry Blossom: Paint Nite

On Tuesday, I went to another paint nite with my sister. This one was at the Pint Public House in downtown Minneapolis and it was absolutely amazing! I seriously would go to this every night if I could afford to do this every night. My sister has never been a big painter like me, and often second guesses herself when she tries to paint.

And matches the paintings that I have in my bedroom, which are all trees and nature inspired.…
View PostAnd Straight On Till Morning – Paint Nite

The painting that we got to create our own version of was called "And Straight On Till Morning." Which is a boat on water at what I'm guessing is sunset. And taught by the amazing Kelly Costello.…
View PostBasilica Block Party (Night Two)

I was so scared all weekend that I wouldn't be able to go because I was feeling insanely ill. To the point where I had to call into both jobs. But I finally started feeling better and forced myself to leave my house so I could go to Basilica Block Party on the second night. Where I got to see Ron Pope, Matt Nathanson, Philip Philips and The Fray perform on the Great Clips stage in downtown Minneapolis.…

I cannot wait until it’s summer again as one of my favorite things to do is walk around Lake Calhoun with my dog, Pixie. One place I enjoy going around the lake is the Tin Fish Restaurant as you can get amazing fish and chips. Plus I can have Pixie…
