I found this new site that is just too fun: Polyvore. You can design and put together your own outfits. This is one that I put together as my dreamy going out with the girls outfit. I love that it shows you where you can buy each item in the outfit and how much it costs too.
Have fun playing with fashion!

Margarita Jello Shooters
And the rest of the story…I ran out of strawberries for the other shooters so I found this great tutorial to make margarita Jello shooters in limes!
Weekend Margaritas
Here is a peek at the strawberry margarita jello shooters that I made this weekend for my good friends going away party. They were delicious!
Word of advice: Be careful not to poke holes in the strawberries or the Jello will flow everywhere, lesson learned. My solution to the Jello river that flowed all over my counter: I let the Jello set up for just a bit then scooped it back into the strawberries that had holes and they turned out great!
