r.i.p


anna.

i dont really know what to say.
i liked your show and how crazy you were.

ps- who is your baby daddy?

dear chick-fil-a,



i heard you can write chick-fil-a cares, so i decided to this morning.

this is what i said:

Hello dear friends at Chick-fil-a,
I am your biggest fan and in a bit of a pickle. I am in love with your number one value meal with sweet tea. It has become an obsession and I have never felt stronger about anything in my life. Omaha needs Chick-fil-a like the world needs Jesus....and that's a lot. Anyways- I know franchising takes tons of money and well I just dont have it. Is there anyway you have had a location open with a petition of signatures of people that promise to eat at Chick-fil-a every week? I know i could get about a million. Let me know what I can do. I have a big pull here in Omaha and could get it done if you would like to pay me in chicken sandwiches, waffle fries and sweet tea. You can also read about my devotion to Chick-fil-a on my blog at danellep.blogspot.com.

Thank you,

Danelle Schlegelmilch

we will see what they say...

what i wouldn't do....



for this little taste of heaven right about now.

nothing.

i would pretty much do anything for a number 1 value meal with a sweet tea.

thanks to jimmy for bringing this obsession back into the front of my mind.



it has been a good month since i last thought of chic-fil-a and now its all i can think about.

we might be going to des monies this weekend for some if anyone wants to come...




ps- anyone want to start a franchise with me?

see you later pal.

two days till one of my greatest loves leaves.


my man of honor, past classmate, co-worker, travel buddy, shopping pal, friend and once internet husband.

i met jimbo in college thanks to miss molly. she was leaving spo and he was coming to replace her. i called him the 'new molly.' because they reminded me of each other with their peppy attitude and stylish gap clothes.

i quickly fell in love and we were traveling the world together. Wisconsin, Minnesota, London, Paris.

i registered him for all of his classes...so he would be with me of course- and he ended up graduating with me in may. who cares if he could have graduated earlier...im glad i just happened to pick the wrong classes that made his stay at uno longer.

i owe my professional first job out of college to him- thanks pal. we had many long lunches, petty cash shopping trips and tickle fights at obi.

we has my first husband... on facebook- and i will always be danelle petersen-schlegelmilch-ferrin.

i will miss you more than you will know jimbo...

but i will come and visit. i do love the ocean. and i love you. the perfect combination!

here are some photos from jimmy's 'see you later' party last night at upstream.

i was glad to meet the blogger family. it was a great night.

bunny suit...


whenever im feeling down or just need a little pick me up i listen to the counting crows. specifically the song, "Holiday in Spain"

this is my favorite part:


"Hop on my choo choo
I'll be your engine driver in a bunny suit.

If you dress me up in pink and white
we might be a little fuzzy about it later tonight...."

it makes me happy.
imagining someone on a little train in a pink bunny suit.

ps- it reminds me of jimmy. that might a little bit of the reason im sad today too, cause he worked his last day at obi yesterday and its lonely without him.

but he came back today to drop something off. it was good to see him.

anyways- back to the ps- i cant wait to go visit jimmy in the lbc.

le creuset



i beat the man.
the registry special offers man.
williams-sonoma told me even though i qualified for a free le creuset dutch oven- they told me i couldn't have it because my dad purchased the six piece cookware set for me with his company discount. whatever.



i sent in the offer anyways for giggles.

well today guess what showed up....

my free 2.75 quart le creuset oval dutch oven.

ha. take that.

thanks le creuset, love the cast iron cookware.

baby sister....

Ya thats my left hand!!! (her text with the picture mail.)

...is engaged.

congrats copy cat and cameron.

heres how it went down:

MEGAN WOKE UP WITH A NOTE ON HER DOOR TO GO WHERE HER AND CAMERON FIRST
MET AND A TEDDY BEAR WITH A SIGN THAT SAID "WILL?"

SHE JUMPS IN HER CAR IN HER PAJAMAS AND GOES!!

SHE DRIVES TO MENARDS IN WEST OMAHA, FROM BELLEVUE, TO FIND A BEAR THAT SAYS "YOU" AT THE SERVICE DESK AND A NOTE THAT SAYS TO GO TO WHERE WE HAD OUR FIRST DATE.

SHE DRIVES BACK TO BELLEVUE TO THE MOVIE THEATER TO FIND A BEAR THAT
SAYS "MARRY" SITTING OUTSIDE OF THE THEATER... CAUSE IT'S CLOSED. THE
NOTE SAYS GO TO WHERE WE HAD OUR SECOND DATE.

SHE THEN DROVE TO SOME RIVER IN COUNCIL BLUFFS TO RETRIEVE A ENGAGEMENT
RING AND PROPOSAL IN SUBARCTIC TEMPERATURES WHERE THEY FIRST WENT
FISHING.

top five...

places i despise.
in order.


1. fed-ex kinkos: why should it take 5 hours to mail a box?

2. usps: why is there always lines that never move like fed-ex? and why do you take my packages to your office so i have to wait in these lines-instead of just leaving the packages like the ups guy?

3. the dmv: why are there so many forms to fill out?

4. the dentist: how do i get my card back into the cavity free club? i brush, i do.

5. the social security office: yes- ive been there twice- both times a total treat.

as you can see these are overall slow places that take up time we do not have to be waiting in lines for.

with the change of my last name i have gotten to go to all of these fun houses for one reason or another.

cupie cakes and kids...

i love both.
specifically the wedding cupcakes my new cousin erin made so deliciously for me and this little boy, ben (another new cousin).
this if one of my favorite pictures from the wedding.
i took this picture as i heard some hussle and bussle behind me when we were eating dinner. it seems that ben, among other people, could just not wait to get their hands on those cupcakes. instead of being a bridezilla and yelling wait!!! dont eat the cupcakes yet- i wanted to feed one to joel- i say hold on, grab my camera and spin around and say 'say cheese.' ben flashes his priceless smile and i snap. the rest is history. i can feed joel cake anyday. i wish i could see this little wippersnapper more.



i love this photo for the following reasons:

1. ben is the cutest thing ive ever seen.
2. that cupcake looks glorious.
3. i love cupcakes.
4. did i mention how cute ben is?
5. it was the happiest day of my life.
