I'm a rockstar because...

All of you HAVE to list (it's the law) a minimum of 1 reason you are a rockstar. 

Me: I'm a rockstar because my final interior project for this semester is in...pardon the wonkiness of the pictures.

I'm also a rockstar because, even though I hate it, I patiently hand-lettered my concept statement without complaining...even though my hand nearly fell off (promise).

I'm also a rockstar because, um, I say so.

Your turn!!!

Matt loves Munkii!!!

Re: I'm a rockstar because...

  • I'm a blogging rockstar.  I have the next several weeks of my new blog already typed up and on stand-by so all I have to do is post every morning.

    And I don't know if this counts, but I'm REALLY caffeinated today... so I feel like the bestest rockstar ever! Woo!

  • I'm not feeling very "rockstar" today, but I'll play along.

    I'm a rockstar because I survived 2.5 years in my current job, figured out what I want to do with my life and start to make it happen on Monday!


  • I'm also not feeling very "rockstarish" today...stupid migraine...but I'll play.

    I'm a rockstar because even though I felt like crap this morning (and still do) I put on a cute "casual friday" outfit and my rockstar black leather boots and came into work.  I am also a rockstar because my horoscope for today is right on with the whole photography thing and a complete stranger left a REALLY nice comment on my blog that made me feel awesome... 

    *SUPERSTAR*...I mean *ROCKSTAR*...superstar is fun to say... Cool

  • Karen, you're a rockstar for posting the pics on your new blog.

    Glad you like them!  There's a Part II to that post somewhere in the future.

  • I'm a rockstar because I just knocked out an entire set of Answers to Interrogatories that would take me hours with the boss here in 45 minutes.

    And now I get to spend the rest of the afternoon doing whatever I want Big Smile

  • I am a rockstar because I am running in my first race next Saturday!! I'm so pumped, albeit a little early Smile !
  • I'm an aging but still fierce rock star (think Mick Jagger) because in one week I was given an award with CASA Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children) for excellence in my volunteer work there, elected to my Sweet Adelines Chorus management team for the third two year term since 2002, and then elected President of the team for the third team...because I can.  Also, on Tuesday I put on my rock star cowboy boots and went to the Carrie Underwood concert with my amazing daughter (birthday gift for me!) and did not look half bad!
    My baby girl is a married woman...and now my baby girl HAS a baby girl. Time unfolds in such an amazing way. I've been blessed!
  • I'm a rockstar because I made two batches of rice crispie treats today (one original, one with Nutella) before work.  (BUT I really want to go home and eat them RIGHT NOW and I can't because they're for a shower tomorrow!)
  • I'm a rockstar because I saw an opportunity and I'm going for it.  Not saying what it is because there's a good chance it won't turn into anything but if it does I'll definitely let everyone know.

    Yes

  • imageCipolla2Be:

    Depends on your personal tastes I think.  Personally I think chocolate when I look at it but then it doesn't taste like chocolate and it's disappointing. lol.

  • I'm a rockstar because everyone in the office is admiring my homemade deep dish pizza leftovers and seriously getting jealous of my fantastic skillz.  yep - with a z.  :)  Watch out Chicago and New York, Minnesota might just be the new pizza capitol of the world.  Stick out tongue

    It does taste like chocolate - but it's hazelnut chocolate (which I LOVE).  So it's not going to be the traditional chocolate flavor you would think of. 

    When I was doing my exchanges in Europe, we would eat nutella on hard rolls every day for breakfast. *swoon*  Kristina - try it on toast or warm bread.  It's incredible.

    And YES, POST THE RICE KRISPIE TREAT RECIPE!!! That'll give you rock star status for life!

    Oh. Em. Gee. That sounds like heaven. You HAVE to put that recipe on the FB page.

    Cipolla, Nutella is a delicious mixture of chocolate and hazelnut. Mmm, we used to make crepes in our HS French class and smother them in it. Dee-lish.

  • Muffin's Mom, what kind of chorus is this?  I saw you mentioned it a week or so ago but forgot to ask.

    Matt loves Munkii!!!
  • I'm a rockstar because I'm an intelligent, creative, independent-minded woman.  I know this to be true, but recently I'm not feeling it so much, so this seems more like my current mantra...

    What! What!  Yes  Very cool that you volunteer with CASA!  Those kids go through so much and people like you really make a difference. 

  • I'm a rockstar because I'm running in my first 5k this weekend! AND because I'm 1.2 lbs away from 40 lbs lost Surprise

  • I had it on my toast for breakfast.  I agree that is a very good place to start for Nutella newbies, but I prefer it on a bagel.  Smile  Definitely try it Kristina.  I don't buy it all the time but it is a great occasional treat!

    I'll try to remember to put it on face book, but here's what I did:

    Butter 9x12 baking dish.  Melt one tablespoon butter in a large pot over low heat.  Add approximately 40 large marshmallows and at least two HEAPING tablespoons of Nutella (I wish I had added more) and stir until melted.  Remove from heat and mix in six cups of Rice Crispies.  Butter hands and press mixture into the baking dish (or just eat it out of the pot with your hands ~haha~).

  • Thanks for the recipe Millie!
