My good work friend having a baby. Her friend threw her a baby shower. She invited me. I went. So did many other women. She's having a girl. We played games. We ate a lot of (yummy) food. She opened many gifts. And we all celebrated. Congrats Lala!

I'm in the market for a new pair of glasses. Currently I have these but found the above last week and can't stop thinking about them. I snapped a quick pic so you could all weigh in. I've never had plastic frames before because they're hard to find to fit my face. So, ladies, help a sistah out: are these glasses the ones?
What do you have planned for the weekend? Tonight I am getting together with seven other girls for dinner downtown at a hot spot. Tomorrow, I plan to sleep in and get some laundry done (those baskets are overflowing) and then heading to a birthday party in the evening. Sunday, of course, is Mothers' Day and my sister and I are hosting a brunch at her place for our mom. Jam packed, just the way I like it. Have a great weekend!

So I know I mentioned at some point before that I was going to consign some of my clothes. I've never really done much of this before, I always just donate my clothes to the GoodWill or Salvation Army (of course I let my girlfriends go through the stuff beforehand if they want), but this time I thought I'd try my hand at it. There is a chic consignment store I like in an 'up-and-coming' (or perhaps 'already up') neighbourhood that takes items that would actually be in my closet (aka non-designer) but still have slightly higher standards than your average consignment shop. I dropped off close to 40 items in March and knew they'd be on the floor, for sale, for two months. I called the other day to see what my account balance was at and... I made $140! What a score! I was ecstatic. I went to the store, checked out their inventory and eventually cashed out. I'm a true consignment believer now and plan to always do this. Have you ever consigned anything? Are you strictly a donater? I'd love to hear.

Took a lil' road trip with Christine and it was great to get away for the day. We did some minor shopping but mainly drove, talked, and sang our hearts out (she brought two iPods loaded with amazing music). Aren't days with girlfriends such fun?
