Gardenology





While reading a Better Homes and Gardens type on a break, I came upon a new store that is (sadly) in California. It has some beautiful ideas on furniture, lighting, art and anything else you would want to fill your happy home with.












I also found a site that has the below items for sale. There are three things friends learn quickly about me.




1. I am may be late. (as in at least 2-15 min :/ sorry guys!)




2. I have a very poor memory most of the time. (hence #1)




3. I am afraid/don't want any part of birds...


...which is why it took me by surprise that I bought new peacock earrings (Below) and liked this random sales sites jewelery so much...

VVV!


A Few days ago I found myself with time to kill! This almost never happens, as I am usually spinning in motion trying to get from work to clinic to..wherever on time (which also almost never happens). But this day client cancelled on me and I had the afternoon to go home..or not! Excited with my "free time" I admittedly ran some rather boring errands. On my way to fill my power card I stumbled upon a book sale!



I have never really enjoyed reading. I have always much rather being outside, listening to music or taking in a movie. When I was a child I had my favorites, but as a young adult I just couldn't see why people read for their own entertainment. When I moved out on my very own (just me, my cat and dog, and three pots too many) I decided on an "Adult Movement" if you will, where I would read for pleasure and no longer leave dishes out, or the lights on when I slept. Regrettably the dishes remain on the side of the sink.. never in? Anyways, I did however start to read more. I began with mainly short fluffy novels and haven't moved on since (included the entire Twilight Sage... (cough) twice!)

And so in my seek for more adult material I rummaged through the $1.00-$3.00 books. Clearly these had to be donated for the cause, which was to raise awareness about Prostate Cancer. And since I only paid $1.00 for my slightly risky-yet funny book called "Going Down: a New Yorkers Tale". Here is more information if you so care to indulge.

Here is a count down of my top 5 favorite titles strewn about the display:

5. "Can You Say Potty?"

-who me?

4. "Greet and Cheat"

-I can only guess lol

3. "Peter Pan: The Untold Story"

-Really?

2. "Vegan. Virgin. Valentine."

-wow lol I did almost get this one for the title alone

1. "Bachelors and Babies"

-This you had to see the cover of to really appreciate the title. It was a mustache clad cowboy with a baby strapped to his chest. But while looking for a picture of it on Amazon to share I found this on instead:
Say it with me... WTF?

If I Were A Rich Girl

I love all these items from Anthropolpgie. In my mind I have a much more chic life where I spend time on canoes being rowed by Frenchmen and whimsical music playing over head... which is a stark difference to the faded wrinkled blue scrubs I wear and played out play mix of Taylor Swift and Doughtry my work plays over head.. p.s. not a Frenchmen in sight!


I have never been able to get on board with the over the shoulder bag until recently. Now I see them everywhere I go and want to make it my next big purse purchase. These two are runners up, what do you think?


Awe rings! How I love the. I have a Gemini spirit when it comes to rings. I tend to either go very loud colorful and big like the one on the left. Or I will find a small simple and delicate ring like the one on the right. The last one isn't a ring, its a "collar necklace" and I really like it! I want to find more!



Carry has Manolos, Dorthy had red slippers, this summer I want these! I love the flowered lace on the black ones, and the little yellow flower bursts on the second. The third pair is an obvious pick for me since I am attracted to all things that sparkle.
