Tell it Tuesday

Hello blog readers!!  I hope your week has started off well!!  Here is another tell it Tuesday post.  This post is going to be like "Oprah's favorite things," only it's "Nicole's favorite things." Sorry but you will not be receiving these items!! ;0)

1. The Mulled Cider candles from Walmart. Let's just say I don't love Walmart, but I tolerate it upon occasion.  Soap box time: They never have any check out lanes open and there are about 50 lanes in the store.  Also they seem to rearrange their store every week.  I know it's a marketing technique, but seriously I just want to run in and run out!!  OK I am off the Walmart soap box now.

2.  The Cricut Cutting Machine.  I love this machine!!  I have been able to decorate all kinds of things with vinyl lettering, make flag banners, make letters for posters, decorations for parties, etc.....  The list could go on and on!!

3.  All things Owls.  I have a little obsession going on right now with owl things.  I find myself buying anything with cute owls on them.  Like owl pajamas, owl hats and mittens, owl stuffed animals, owl fabric, owl ribbon, etc....  One of my girl's birthday parties was done with an owl theme, and I searched high and low for owl themed things and found a few things, but as Murphy's Law would have it, now that the party has been over a few months everywhere I go, there is something owl themed.  Go figure!!

4.  Lamps.  Not really any in particular or any brand, just lamps in general.  Odd I know ;0)

5.  Viccolo Pizza Crust.  We have been trying to make our own pizzas instead of getting them delivered and I must say we make pizza with this crust once or twice a week.  You can buy this crust in the frozen food section at Whole Foods.  You might be able to get it other places, but this is the only place I have found it so far.  It is some of the best crust I have tasted. 

6.  Mahalo Candy Bars.  I have a slight dairy allergy so you can image my excitement to find this little goody!  It is dairy free!!  Our favorite is the chocolate with coconut and almonds.  Tastes like and almond joy but better. 

7.  Bravo TV Network.  Lately, my DVR seems to have mostly shows taping from this channel.  I don't know why but I just love Bravo! 

I hope you have enjoyed my Tell it Tuesday post.  Have a fantastic week and don't forget to check out the details on my fall mini sessions!!  I am now booking time slots, so book yours today!

Tell it Tuesday

Hello everyone and Happy Tuesday!! I thought I would start a "Tell it Tuesday" post. I thought I would start with a little intro about the "Nicole" behind Heart of Nicole Photography. I am a momma who loves all things 80's, well maybe not the style of clothing, but TV shows, movies, and music. I am a "teeny bopper" at heart. I still enjoy playing original Nintendo games even though you use a wireless wii remote. At lease I can sit farther away from the TV now. Mickey Mouse Capades anyone?! I grew up watching Gummi Bears, Chip N Dale's Rescue Rangers, Duck Tales, and the list could go on and on. A few years ago I bought the Gummi Bears series on DVD and my daughter is obsessed with the theme song. So, today I purchased the theme song, along with some other theme song favs, for her on i tunes. Don't you just love i tunes?! I have had fun "jammin" and "rockin' out" with my daughter to these fun songs today. And yes, we even have microphones!! May I leave you with a word of encouragement today," ... everyday that I can't make it Duck Tales whoo ooo ..."
