Hooked on A Dream!
Thursday, July 9, 2009 at 9:21PM Courtney For many months I have been a subscriber to the website Hooked On Houses. Each week, Julia hosts a carnival about what makes you happy called, Hooked on Fridays. I love reading what everyone loves, like things from, looking at real estate ads, to vacations, to etsy!! It's fun to read what really makes someone happy and in turn you feel just a bit happier each week after reading all the great post! Not to mention, I save so many post that Julia puts up for my dream house we will build some day. I have found such great ideas from so many fellow bloggers, like this one, or this one, and ohhh I cant forget, this one!!
So this week, I am hooked on a Dream.........
The other night B and I were sitting down watching a documentary, and I was so sad that people have such a urge to be something big. I love having dreams but I am totally happy with the life I have, even if I am paying student loans as a stay at home mom! They will go away some day right? I guess they might go away faster if I didn't keep going to the above blogs and wanting to redecorate!!
The movie brought up a conversation of what my dream would be. I have no desire to be a movie star, model or politician. My dream is to........open a crepe stand! Yep, that is my dream and these are a few of the things I would love to make it happen!
I want to get one of these..........
And this is also a must...........
And a cute little sign like this..........
(its a highway sign to go along with the vintage look of the Airstream!Reminds me of my own Route 66!)
Outside the Airstream would be a couple of these...........
(minus the parrot, might not be a good selling point at a food stand!)
And of course I would make crepes!! I would make breakfast crepes, savory crepes and dessert crepes! So I guess the first step to really achieving my dream would be to start learning to make yummy, organic healthy crepes!! One day I might actually make my dream come true, but for now I am just going to enjoy what I have and thinking of my cute little stand!
Check out all the other things that make people happy! It might just spark something inside you and make you a little bit more happy also!

I love this! What a fun dream to have--and so creative. Why not do it in style with an Airstream?! Those things are so darn cute. I also like the sign you came up with. Perfect! :-)
I liked this post. :) Your sign is adorable! It's fun to dream, isn't it? Visiting from Julia's party. :)
What a great dream! When the time is right you should totally go for it....
I love knowing that I'm living my dreams as well - it's a wonderful, blessed feeling.

I think that's a fantastic dream. And I'd be there in line waiting for one! :--)
Nell
That sounds yummy! I haven't had a crepe in years! I don't really have big aspirations. I would like to be debt free someday though.
We all have to have a dream. Or dreams. Mine is just to live a simple life with color around me.
Brenda
LOVE your dream.
Hope it comes true one day.
Thanks for sharing.
Hi from N Ireland.
Hey Courtney! Just wanted to pass along a blog I just found, LOVE her stuff, she is so creative and I am impressed with how expensive she makes these inexpensive items look! Check it out if you have a few minutes http://www.inthefunlane.com/ Granted everything is white, but you can easily change up the color if you like.
Ericka, thanks for sharing, so cool everything white, I want a clean beachy feel in our next house. probably not that white though!!
