Pikto Photobooks

Thanks to my friend Janice for introducing me to Pikto as a place to make my wedding photobook.

I've tried Shutterfly, Kodak, Blurb, and Pikto is my fav by far.

Top 4 reasons why:

1 - It's local (Toronto). Love to support my local businesses AND it's a way to possibly save on shipping costs.

2 - It uploads pictures incredibly fast!! 800 pictures in less than 10 seconds? You've won me over.

3 - It uploads pictures period!! The other 3 sites didn't like my pictures for whatever reason.

4 - Janice is the expert of research. If she's going Pikto, then I'm going Pikto :)

GO PIKTO!!

Bou .. Bou .. Boudoir

Puppy for Christmas

This is puppy.



Puppy needs a home. Puppy is a Scott/American bulldog and only 7 weeks.



He's been vet checked, dewormed and has had first vaccinations.



For $450, you get the love from this beautiful dog, a bag of high quality (Origen) puppy food and a dog crate.

You know you want him. Look at this face.



Email me at tapstar@gmail.com if you are interested and I will pass your information onto the seller.

Chop Chop Time!!

Yep, say goodbye to my long flowing locks. hahaha. This Friday, my friend Marleen is going to create something wicked for my "I'm Just Married .. you so missed the boat buddy" hairdo.

In response to my mother and father saying "but it just got so long!! Keep it!" it's time to say good bye due to the following reasons:

1 - I'm lazy and maybe blow dry my hair once a month. Seriously.
2 - I'm lazy, and spend maybe 5 minutes a day getting ready to go to work. And it looks it!
3 - I'm lazy. Period.
4 - I'm bored.

So, here's what I'm thinking. "Rock n' roll meets girl in denial of turning 30 in 6 months".

I love Gina Gershon's hairstyle sense. Way hot and not too young:



I also LOVE Gossip Girl Taylor Momsen's new 'do (in season 2). Grrrr......
Marleen is also a fan of Gossip Girl, and states this hair style will be too high maintenance for me. I think she meant the blonde, but not sure. Anywho, it's hot.



And look how great it looks in a pony!



I can't wait!!
