Jazz Fest

Jeff and I went down to New Orleans for Jazz Fest this year. Yesterday is the only day that we will be able to make it, but Dave Matthews, Wayne Toups, and Better than Ezra were playing so it was the best day, anyways. It was a lot of fun; another thing to check off my list of "things to do while living in Louisiana", but the hygienics were pretty gross and the crowds got a little overwhelming. I definitely would not go unless we had the free perks (ie cleaner bathrooms, a tent with tables and chairs, and free food, beer and drinks) from Shell Oil! Here are a few pics:

Culprit

So, after a great girls day full of shopping, brunch, and lots of laughter, I came home and immediately (like most days) went to check on the progress of my vegetables.... this is when I found this:

This was my FIRST tomato! I was so excited that I finally had one turning red, but obviously something got to it first! :( What a disappointment...
I guess I am going to have to build a cage... or maybe a trap! lol

Fix

I got my Sushi fix for a while! Jeff is never too sure about the stuff, but he is always a good sport. I can't get enough. It was a beautiful night so drinks with Tim and Allyson on the rooftop of Tsunami's with a view of the Mississippi River just topped it off. :)

Favorite

This is my favorite part of LOST so far! Every time I watch it I crack up. Ben's face is classic; he's thinking, "what the heck was that?!"

This didn't take long...

I knew someone would grab Susan Boyle as soon as she walked off the stage! She has unveiled a new look with some hair dye and a new outfit. She is so very modest and confident. Check out what she has to say here. Even if she doesn't win the show, she is destined for an amazing career.

Burn One Down

"If you don't like my fire, then don't come around,
'cause I'm gonna burn one down.
Yes, I'm gonna burn one down." ~ Ben Harper

The saga continues...

I just finished "New Moon". Part 2 of the Twilight series.
I can't stand it! Is Edward going to turn Bella into a vampire, or not?! I guess I will have to start "Eclipse" (Part 3) tonight...

Just for a laugh

I think that people in the advertising world these days have to be on crack or something! Just these two commercials are enough to prove it! Gotta laugh, though. They served their purpose and made you remember them.

This gives me Peace...

Because I know that I am being tested...

Romans 1: 16-17 "I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith.""

1 Corinthians 6:9

"Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders...will inherit the kingdom of God."

1 Corinthians 7:20
"You were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your body"
