No One's Gonna Force Me to Sack-Race

Really?? Who would want to eat this??
    Its practicly still alive.  At least its fresh... i guess.
I prefer this
Chicken Artichoke Parmesan on Flatbread
with this
Strawberry Peach Sangria
 Yum!

So this past Monday the French club had a little Mardi Gras thing outside.  Little might be giving it too much credit.  So instead of having French class we met outside.  Our teacher wanted us to help set up and get things going.  I had no prob with this.  It was an amazing day outside.  You might need a lite jacket but in the sun- it was AWESOME.  And also free crepes, crossiants, king cake, and nutella.  You just can't go wrong with that. 
Now these "little" festival things are the type of things you walk by at school and just keep going.  You know the person wants you to come sack-race or buy a necklace.  And you're all "oh sorry. i dont have money" "oh sorry, late for my class".  Hey- I do it everytime. 
So i guess one of the girls in charge was maybe getting flustered or something.  So me and Melissa were just standing by one of the tables and she comes barging over and says "Aren't you part of the french class?! You need to go over and sack-race now!" Whoaaaa.... Calm it down.  And sorry- I have a policy on making myself look like an idiot in public.
So we walked over to where a few other people from class were just standing by the sacks on the ground.  And we both are like- 11:50, ok our obligations are done.  We're gonna go. So we did.  It was definetly the right choice.
But on the flip side- I did actually like some of the jewelry on sale.  It was by Stella & Dot.  They have alot of more earthy looking things which is what I like.  I am not a fan of gaudy or huge sparkly things.  With them you have to go through someone to order it.  But i'd say it was worth it.  I ordered on Monday and got it by Thursday.  I went through the girl in French club and she actually called when the order went through as well as when it got to my house.  She called me before I even was home and knew about it.

It came in a little box.  And inside two smaller boxes- which I thought had cute designs on them.  I got a pair of fresh water pearl earrings-  which are gorgeous.  You can always tell real pearls because they will have small imperfections on them.  If it seems perfect- guess what- it's fake.  And then a wrap braclet/necklace with real turquoise, aventurine, and lemon jasper.  I loveddd the colors.  It has different adjustments which is awesome cause I have freakishly tiny wrists.  Seriously.  Remember that game in elementary school where you see how many times you could get your fingers to touch and that was how many kids you were gonna have?  Lets just say- wow- i could have a TV show.




Maybe I should look into doing it too.  My only concern is getting people to want to buy it.  I don't wanna be one of those Mary Kay people who end up driving you nutso.




 Shout out to my one and only follower- MELISSA!!!(her blog)  I would totally frame your face and put it on the wall if this was a restaurant.
