Cat's Cradle: Not Just a Game Played With String

I am an Elite Yelper.

Yelp: a website on which one rates businesses, then others can base whether or not they want to visit said business based on reviews.

So I guess it you Yelp a lot and write fairly good reviews, you get nominated to be an Elite Yelper.

What does that entail? You get to go check out cool places and meet cool people and eat really good food. It's great.

Tonight's event was at Cat's Cradle, an antique shop off Center Street in Provo. Cubby's and the Mighty Baker catered and ohhhh man both were so tasty. We did a scavenger hunt throughout the shop, then took a tour of their "Museum of Haunted and Mysterious Objects."

Was it spooky? I didn't think so...but it's totally one of those things that depend on what you want to get out of it. If you go in with the mindset that it will be eerie, hair prickling, and goosebump raising, you will get that sort of experience. But if you go in with the attitude that you don't believe in all that mumbo jumbo/you want to be able to sleep that night so you try your very best to be brave, then it's not all that scary.

Akkster and me.
And a goose.

1st Prize doll 

Looks like one of the 7 Dwarves looking for his pick axe...or for your child's soul...I can't be sure. 

So once upon a time, I bought this ring in London for a pound-I was OBSESSED with it, wore it nearly every day. I wanted my future engagement ring to look like it. Then one day...IT BROKE. I literally cried. I cried over a ring worth $1.54. The pearl ring in the middle is the closest ring I've been able to find to the one I had!

You can't count on him to keep a secret (due to his big mouth), but you can count on him to always have the time? 

I love how this mirror makes you look like an old photograph. #whenvarnishesandscratchesareagoodthing

Yep. That's a throw pillow.

For those of you wondering where Lord Farquaad from Shrek ended up...

Thus concludes Nikki's and my "Night at the Museum." Until the sequel at the Smithsonian or British Museum...#reallylameNightattheMuseumBenStillerreference
