Enchanted Excurse

Hello there Loverlies!! I have been so sleepy lately! lol It doesn't help that it has rained a lot, but I can say at least we are blessed to have the rain and not be in a drought. I am thankful for that. What have y'all been up to lately? I have just been attempting my art again. I needed something to hang up in the living room for the barren area I had. Also wanted to make something to add to the computer room for decoration. So I decided to share what I made with y'all.

The Painting I made for the living room is just some dandelions painted with acrylic on canvas. I decided to keep it monochrome because of the other picture we have in the living room. The other one is a black and white landscape photo we bought at Micheal's. I really do love landscapes! I am hoping this summer I can get out and attempt some landscape photos of my own. The item I did for the computer room is a collage. I am not the best at collages, but I tried. I just bought some cheap old comic books from Hastings and Kapow Comics. (Kapow Comics is located in Sherwood,Arkansas) I used mod podge and glued them on to a canvas. After that I just used an Acrylic paint sealant for both of my projects to protect them. I would love to see what art projects y'all do. If y'all want to just post in the comments below a picture or link to your art. Have a Blessed Day!

Afternoon Loverlies! I think it has been a week now since we finally tried the new Greek restaurant here in Searcy. It is called Greek House, and they have some delicious food! I decided to get the Chicken Gyro and my hubby got the Lambda Lambda Lambda burger. You guessed it, it has Lamb on it. As I stated in an earlier blog post that I was going to try Lamb this year, well, I tried it. I was not that fond of it to be honest. It may be an "it's all in your head" type of thing, but it was very gamey tasting. It was also in hamburger form, I'm not the biggest fan of hamburgers period. So I believe I shall have to try it another way. If you are anytime in Searcy, Arkansas I suggest at least giving this restaurant a try. The chips and fries are made by them, which makes them even more delicious!

I also decided to go to Bath & Body works just the other day, to try out some of their new scents. I'm sad a lot because they don't have many scents that I like, especially my favorite that was called Secret Wonderland. I don't know why they got rid of that scent, it smelled wonderous. I wanted to grab a summery scent though, so I searched until I finally found one called Golden Magnolia. It smells kind of flowery and I love flower smells, they remind me of my Mother. My mother, when she was alive owned the Conway Florist in Conway, Arkansas. I miss her so much. I would always have to go to her shop after school, and I would just play in all the flowers. I don't think I would mind being a florist as a career, but I notice you do have to go to school for it. I haven't fully looked into it, but maybe I should try again. I wouldn't think it would be too stressful of a job, I don't know. Anyways, I purchased two lotions and a perfume because they are having a sale on right now. The Sale was buy two get one free. They have some other good deals going on at the moment. I also found this cool bag that is purple/pink/silver iridescent. It reminds me of a little purse I had for my barbies. lol I think it was made out of the same material, so yes, a trip down memory lane back to the 80s. So therefore, I had to purchase it! Ha! They had some other cool iridescent bags, but I thought it would be a waste to get one of them. The scents they had in those bags, I am not fond of. Go stop by your Bath & Body Works store and see those cool bags! :D Well, if you like that kind of stuff. lol Ta Ta For Now!

It was hard to take a pic of the iridescence on the bag.

        

Hey there Loverlies, :).  Earlier in July my husband and I decided to take a trip to Bull Shoals, Ar.  We wanted to see what their park trails had to offer.  Sadly the wildflowers were not blooming, because of this awful heat.  It was a good trip though.  It got me out of the house!!! and we saw a deer at the camp site, just eating.  It wasn't scared at all.  I loved it!!  It was Such a Pretty Deer.  So at the end of this blog I shall post my pictures I took there.   Hopefully soon I can get out a lil more and take some more pictures.  Hubby is trying to finally finish school.   I will be so happy when that happens, it will be a HUGE Blessing. :)  Till then we just have to be patient and have faith eh?  Sometimes I like looking up nice qoutes, that are inspirational and helpful. So I thought i should share one with y'all. :) This qoute just looks and sounds pretty to me. :) lol and has awesome meaning to it.
