Just quickly..
I know I had a self-imposed ban from thrift shops, but I accidentally picked up these two sets of glasses for $5 total. Four pink wine glasses and six tumblers. It's getting to be a real problem.




The bride-to-be told me to hurry up and get my dress. It had to be black and beach-glamour, so I got this.


It's much prettier in real life and ink black, but it needs a body in it.
I love the bottom.

I went to the library today, and what did I find? This book about Mad Men. I couldn't believe my eyes. It goes through every element of Mad Men and compares it to real life: fashion, work, home life, etc, and of course, advertising campaigns.


Most afternoons the children go for a walk with their father and bring me home some flowers. The collection is growing.

That's it.
