Portlandia.

ya know how i extended my trip a couple days, well i got a night/day in portland.
i have been to portland to shop or weddings, BUT never explored neighborhoods.
how cute is portland? bomb food, local everything, and greeeeeen.
def wouldn't mind living there at some point in my life (i'm saying that after visiting during the best time of the year not during the week after weeks of rain and grey, BUT trying not to think about that part)

the flavors. 

i sampled like prob 4...but wanted to sample them all.
honestly all amazing.
best ice creme ever. andrew says NO FENTONS i say no that's the best sundae BUT the best stand alone ice cream goes to salt&straw. and best t-shirt...
i got the snickerdoodle and the almond brittle...still dreaming of the chunks of ganache.

they are obsessed just like us. how can you not be?
you pippa and stella are sisters...
stella slept the whole night with me...maybe cause she could smell her sister on all my clothes...
aw tender.

last brunch. at another amazing place in portland. seriously those croissant were to die for.
thanks aly&nick for taking me in for the night ;) & introducing my to all the bombness of portland. i'll love you forever if you can magically find us jobs so we can have charm back in our lives once again.
houston lacks charm, weird right? well it does.
it's just one large spread of highway 99 or west 11th...really can't describe it.
no place like it.

for all those fellow breaking bad watchers (we binged hard core on breaking bad when we lived in palm springs, little bored)...how funny is this gift shop?. only in Albuquerque.
i will say from the gift shops i wouldn't mind a trip to sante fe looks kinda great.

after waiting and waiting. ugh i hate delayed flights, especially in new mexico. i did get a little souvenir though. dream catcher for the guest room...kinda into them right now.
after waiting and hating life (even a #selfie in the bathroom happened...def evidence of hating life) i SO HAPPILY boarded the empty plane! can i get a thumbs for sitting by NO ONE! praise. BUT the flight was so flipping cold i really needed my fur coat.

she likes it. she just has a hard time showing it. 

i picked up this little prez for my fav girl (at target) gotta love no sales tax.
I LOVE this mint color or whatever you want to call it.

right back with my puppy.
