Recent Garbage Picking
The other day James and I were almost home after a very long and cold walk home from work when I spotted a box brimming with goodies. Suddenly I wasn't so cold anymore. I started digging. James started bitching. I understand he was cold and wanted to go home, but he said that my ability to see the difference between good garbage and straight up junk is starting to waiver and that what I was currently picking up was ugly old lady garbage! Harsh words I know! Not to mention, old lady garbage is the best kind! I'll let you judge for yourselves. It's definitely old lady.. there is poupouri involved, but I'm into granny chic and this little display is exactly what I had in mind! The tray and jar were mine, I only took the perfume bottle and oil lamp and tore myself away from the box to be a good wife.
So tell me. Am I crazy? Don't answer that. I know my mom will be on my side!

Earth Hour
Earth Hour is such a great excuse for candlelight. There was a little voice in the back of my head (sounding a lot like my mother) telling me I was going to burn the house down, but I was careful and we all survived.
It was a family affair with my nearest and dearest, and a quality one at that. Harley did some acoustic jams and even learned a song I could sing with him. It was really quite wholesome minus the jagermeister. Good times were had by all.
Something wonderful happens when you shut the world off for an hour, I wish we did it more often...
Hope you enjoyed your Earth Hour!
