: : just when i decide that i don’t need a man to complete me, i try to make salad dressing, and i can’t get the bottle of raspberry vinegar open. sigh.
: : i’m loving these earrings that i got from buenos aires. they’re light and made of brightly-patterned fabric. they make my ears happy!
{yes, i’m wearing summer clothes in this picture. no, i did not take this photo this month. or last month, so i guess i’m a little behind. but i did wear these earrings today with a fall-ish outfit – does that count?}
: : i am addressing wedding invitations for a family friend, so i’ve seen a lot of different street names lately. there are the normal-ish sounding ones, yes – woodridge drive, west royal lane, swan lake, southwestern boulevard. but then there are the shropshire drives, the brandywines, the robinhood lanes, and the bonanza courts that keep things interesting. it’s the first time i’ve heard of cattlebaron parc drive, poinciana, or schley. how do you pronounce those, anyway?! so far, i’ve decided that i want to be on vintage court or winter sunday way. it sounds like lovely old white-painted homes with shutters might live there. :)
: : speaking of lovely, old, and white-painted, i purchased this beauty at white elephant antiques in the arts district. isn’t it sweet?
{i need to get a new screw for the knob that’s missing. but i must say that i adore it.}
: : i’m pretty sure that any time i say that i’m going to go to bed at a certain time, it. will. never. happen.
: : my new problem to solve – how and where to hang holiday garlands without putting holes in or tape on the walls. hmm…
: : boys with foreign accents > boys with no accent. but we already knew that.
: : boys who send love emails from across the ocean in broken english which somehow manage to be both laugh-out-loud hilarious and impeccably romantic…well, they just take the cake.
: : the last lingering argentina photos that i still need to edit and post: you better be up on the blog in a week and a half, OR ELSE.
: : bananas with green stems? j’aime. bananas with brown spots? no bueno.
: : i go on my first business trip ever this sunday! yep, i’m swinging with the big kids now. ;)
well friends, lucky for y’all, that’s about all this little brain of mine could spout out in 10 minutes. i’m off to do something crazy, like attempt to get in bed before midnight. [oops, just jinxed myself again.]
later, loves!
