NEW 52

I've been trying hard to keep up with New 52 (check out Peppermint and Christine's blog for more info) and so far I've been loving the idea.  I keep talking about having to try new things with my husband and now he is getting into it.  I'll show you what I mean in a minute.  The only thing I haven't been good about is keeping up with the photos or layouts.  So this weekend, I played a little catch-up.

NEW Calvin Klein bed sheets (old sheets got ripped by my husband's toenails), with Bostyn jumping on it.

Bostyn broke my old glasses so I had to get NEW ones.  I had my last pair for 8 years so I thought I was allowed to splurge on this Ralph Lauren lovely.  Not the most flattering photo of me.


I got my NEW photobook from shutterfly in the mail this week.  I loved the way it turned out.  I love the heavy stock paper that they used.  This was my first in ordering a 12x12 from shutterfly.  You can see this book, 2010 Captured: Week by Week,  in last week's post.


Since it is already Monday, I got a head start on this week's NEW.  Yesterday, we went to a new restaurant, Maguro ya, a Japanese restaurant.  I had zaru soba and tempura.  Tate had their bento lunch box with so many side dishes that his head was spinning.  Here you can see what it looked like,


So I mentioned that Tate is getting into this NEW 52 and today he wanted to try another NEW dining experience.  We took a very long drive to Punaluu which is clearly on the other side of the island and ended up in this little country store across the street from the beach.  This store was home to a little kitchen called Kaya's.  They had one of the best red beef stews I've had in a long time.  However, they still cannot compare to my grandma's.  Oh, how I miss her beef stew!  I had their hamburger steak which was ono as well.  We didn't bring the camera along so no foodie photos.


Tate loves to buy t-shirts from small restaurants or stores so here he is modeling it for all of you.


Here are some NEW layouts for the week.  Each layout is linked to my gallery for description and credits.  Enjoy and see you next week.

    I totally enjoyed looking at and reading about all your NEW this week! The Bento boxes look amazing, I've never seen round ones before! And you rock the new glasses! I just got a new pair myself in November. Your layouts are really adorable. Thanks for sharing your New 52 this week with me!

    Hi Kym, so good to read you're a NEW52 girl too!!! I love taking a tour of all the blogs linked up through Christine's & Peppermint's blogs. Oooooh, you can't beat sliding under NEW sheets (especially GORGEOUS CK ones!!!) You look so cute & sassy with your new glasses (I didn’t realise you wore them!) I keep meaning to try Shutterfly but can never really think of a theme. So pleased you’re happy with your book. It would appear that LOTS of us did food related NEWS this week. LOL! I wonder what next week will have in store for us? Whatever it is, I hope you enjoy it! Hugs. Sue
