If you don’t know Bri of Me, You and a Wiener, then my friends you are missing out. The blog is highly irreverent and highly entertaining and showcases Bri’s highly awesome design skills. If you visit for nothing else, go for her hilarious self-drawn cartoons that highlight her various DIY projects, random musings and adventures.
I have come to count on Bri as my dose of reality in the blogosphere. She never sugar coats and always puts it out there like she sees it which you need at times. So when I was tinkering with doing a ongoing series of guest posts where I ask other bloggers to photograph and describe a meaningful vignette in their home, I ran it past Bri to gauge her reaction. Fortunately, she liked the idea; so much so that I convinced her to kick off the series.
Here is Bri’s vignette and her explanation on why she finds it meaningful…..
This is a big ass vignette, that picture in the back of the ocean be San Fran. We took a few trips up there when were still stationed at Beale AFB. I miss Cali a lot so I keep a few pictures around the house that remind me of all the great places my buddies, Wayne (hubby) and I enjoyed while we were still stationed there. I’m not one to really have special objects that I treasure (besides my dog tags, because I’m thankful I still have them), what I treasure most are pictures of friends because they serve as good conversation starters when family and friends come to visit. Especially when they are of your best friend who is a dude wearing your weave that you accidentally emailed to the whole base. Bahahahaha
I “heart” Bri’s vignette but absolutely LOVE that the whole vignette was inspired by the small picture on the console table. Her explanation brings this seating vignette to another level and I can just imagine Bri sitting in the chair, strolling down memory lane right before grabbing the joysticks and kicking your ass in Gears of War 3.
