I Don't Look Upon This as a Catastrophe..

According to the goofy individuals over at Craftastrophe , this neato mobile is of the stripper variety when, as anyone can see, its much more along the lines of a PINUP mobile & I happen to think its beyond swell & at only $30.00, quite a steal! I WANT:

Adding a Little Elegance to an Otherwise Very Unattractive Endeavour.

is what the loveliness of this tissue box provides:



I would love to place it in my bathroom.

Mid-Century Covet.

Look at this little beauty via From the Desk of Mrs. Gorman ! Ohhh, my heart yearns..
I honestly think that, if I were in possession of such a lovely writing tool, I would be inspired to do much, MUCH more than I do now..

Speaking of writing, perhaps I'll start posting some here in the future.
Its a thought..

Satirical.

If you've glanced through my blog even just a time or two, you know how I love Americana ranging from the 1940s through the late 1960's. I also love all things created today that take cues from those times of clean, crisp, delicious imagery. This, however, is not only brilliantly executed in style but, hilarious as well; a recent play on 1940s WWII war propaganda posters, concerning today's war on Terror:


Funny, yes but, sadly true.
Things are changing though!

Lace tape:

I really like that. Its a unique way to make a plain ol;d cardboard box a bit more fun.

My best birthday party

consisted of a Lamb Chop birthday cake, and a rousing game of "put your right hand in, put your right hand out..." lead by Barney, the now disturbing purple dinosaur, except, Barney should've have been named Barnadette or something because, as you can hear being whispered by a few of my little friends on the videotaped evidence, BARNEY IS NOT A LADY!!

Justifyingly, also evident on the tape in question, I was peeved at this development and hence made my mother miserable by my complete lack of appreciation for paying the enormous amount of money I'm certain was called for in order for this atrocious excuse of an overly excited, fat, and apparently transgendered purple dinosaur. In other words, I was being an ungrateful little brat and it is all recorded.

But, that Lamb Chop birthday cake was pretty freaking sweet though so, it sort of evens out. Well not really but, I did love that cake. I didn't even want to eat it but, I don't think it would've kept this long you know? It was my 6th birthday party, after all...

The point of this post is actually to point out another blogger's post.

Andrea helped little Ava pull off the 8th birthday part of her dreams with the requested theme being "Chinese".


Le post is here.

and you can see all of the birthday fun here.

Gosh, kids nowadays are terribly sophisticated, no?

So, my question, obviously, is what birthday was your favorite? What was the theme? What makes it stick out so vividly? What was the cake like? Haha.

Ain't it the truth?

Threadless Designs on your wall?

I want this on my wall!

It could happen thanks to Bilk wants us to get in on choosing which designs become wall candy. Here's what they say:

every six weeks, the blik team posts some of our favorite Threadless original tee shirt designs and we want you to tell us which ones should be the inspiration for a new set of wall graphics.

Yay! I love voting on stuff like this too!
