Girl Crush

So my new friend Jessie and I have confessed a mutual girl crush. She's awesome. And to catalog the awesomeness, both for my benefit (cleaning out my inbox), and yours, here are some of my favorite things from Jessie: (she's quite a resource!!)

Favorite Quote Ever:
"You hate antibiotics?!? Are you crazy?? Which part do you not love? The feeling like you're dying one moment and then less that 24 hours later you feel like you have a new lease on life? I want to marry antibiotics."

Folex - best carpet spray cleaner ever. go. buy. it.
"The best price is the large jug at Home Depot but they sell it at Target, Rite Aid, etc. Isn't it amazing?? It's the only stuff that really works. For some reason it's not advertised like the ones that don't work. You'll usually find it on the bottom shelf at the store, slightly dusty."

Cleaning Schedule - OCD, and fabulous!

This is FUNNY and a SMALL world because though I don't know Jesse - I read her food blog! The counselor I interned with last year knows Jesse through MH and was always raving about her food... so now I subscribe through my RSS food!

Even SMALLER world... is this the new friend you said I remind you of?? (hmm, may be not now that I think about it.) I KNOW HER!!!!! Either she was an elementary education major or we had our UCore/UFound etc. classes together. Show her my pic and see if she recognizes me too... :D
