By Chaz Dean


You know you've seen the infomercials. Wen by Chaz Dean. One of the benefits of housesitting is having the opportunity to use new products. I mostly rely on friend recommendations, but have discovered some of my favorites on the housesitting circuit. I used some of Julie's Wen this morning. Best hair care system I've ever used. Bouncy, sleek, clean, shiny, mmmm.

Coming Soon


Two movies I can't wait to see! Who wants to go with me?

All Day I Dream About Blogging

Nate doesn't think I blog enough. This second post is for him. It's the least I can do for one of my FFs (favorite friends).

F is for Funky

I'm sitting in the McAfee homestead taking full advantage of their la-z-boy couch, surround sound, flat screen tv, and wireless internet. I'll be happy hanging out on the couch all evening perusing wedding blogs, which seems to be my newest hobby.

I did my first round of wedding dress shopping this past Saturday at American Rose Bridal in Poulsbo. My mom and Aunt Kathy chaperoned. Several drop waisted, sequin covered dresses later my verdict was "meh." It was fun to play dress up, but they don't have what I'm looking for...something without sparkles.

I've got a white dress coming from nordstrom.com. Can't wait to try it on!

Bottom of the Barrel

The 47 North Productions crew posted the latest episode of Adler and Zenith. You should go watch it! I got a special thanks in the credits :)
Nate, Christine, and I skipped the Superbowl and went to Mars Hill Ballard last night. It was the first time I had attended a service at that campus.

My honest first impression was...well, that it felt like we were walking into a television studio audience. To an extent we were. Mars Hill broadcasts Mark Driscoll's sermons to it's 6 other campuses.

The message, on 1 Peter 1:13-21, was awesome. It resonated with me in some pretty uncanny ways. I can't wait to go back. We're going to start making the commute to Ballard for church every Sunday. Wanna come?
