Geek Love

For all you geeks out there...here are some summer recommendations! 

Watch this - Battlestar Galactica (the newer version). Amazing. Can't get enough. 

 Read This - Geek Love - Involves circus freaks - love it. 

Make this- from Fashion Geek by Diana Eng of Project Runway. Fun and nerdy projects with great how-to photos!

I want...

My friend Lauren posted this pic on her blog.  I love this door knocker. My parents had one like this on our door in our Arkansas house...seems so classic and grown-up. :) 

Someday - I will have a door that needs a classic knocker. 

This weekend (early edition)...

Guess where I am off to tomorrow on a last minute excursion? Want to see some of what I will be up to - visit here. Reports to follow next week. Other tips? The comments section is currently accepting suggestions.

Daydreaming: A New Kitchen

There are so very many things I would love to do to our condo - I know, I sound like a broken record complaining about it all of the time. It is just that we rent, so, we cannot really do much beyond trying to just make do. Every morning I visit Little Green Notebook as it is always chock full of wonderful design ideas. Today did not disappoint. Featured today is a run down of small kitchens - and all these images do is make me want to take a sledgehammer to my rental kitchen.

Just a sneak peak. Go see more loveliness here.

Sad songs....

To my best friend

My sister

My design inspiration,

dance partner,

shared brain twin.

I love you. 

Erin once sang me this song before she left town at karaoke.  Always makes me cry.

Snail Mail

Look at what arrived in the mail today! Sweet Papery makes the cutest custom stamps - get your own here. This should make bill paying (and yes, I still pay all my bills by hand) a lot more fun.

Guess you all now have my mailing address. Oops.

Mirror Mirror...on MY wall...

This mirror has hit the blogs hard lately...the Peacock or Honeycomb...or what have you. I used to go to Neiman Marcus when they had a Kelly Hoppen section of home goods. There was an antique I would literally stare at and conspire how to get (sell my soul, body....clothes on ebay...) What I would have done.

So, then I have been seeing a few of my favorites posting on this mirror from Pier 1. I don't shop there...haven't been in one for years. Something about papasan chairs that I really have a thing against. Long story short (and calls made to Pier 1's in my area with no luck)...I sent Sue to the Pier 1 in Abilene. The mirror will be here by Friday! OMG...
