Hi all! I'll be out of town for the next two weeks. I'm going to be a counselor at church camp, visit my sister in San Diego and take a little trip to Disneyland.While at camp this week I have limited access to the internet and not much time to check everyone's great blogs, so unfortunately I'll be out of the loop for some time. Real posting probably won't start up again here till July, although I'm hoping I can squeeze in the time to post and get caught up from San Diego. We'll see, so until then, stay true!

Photo Friday: Life Made Sweet









Well these photos were taken by none other than Michelle from the fantastic blog Made Sweet. I love her style, the lighting is sublime and her subjects are anything but drab. Have you ever seen dirt & rocks look so good? I know I haven't! Thanks again to Michelle for allowing me to share her photos!

Pretty Packaging Please




Perhaps you've seen these already? If not, these pretty patterned cups & bags are designed by Sarah Walsh for Mallard Tea Rooms in Kuntsford. Unfortunately they don't have an online shop, poopoo, because I love the mix&match patterns Sarah created by being "inspired by the eclectic feel of the establishment which is quirky, eccentric and unmistakably English."

Morning All, I'm back!

Good day on this Monday morning! Please excuse my absence last week from the blog-o-sphere. I was just too busy with my finals to do any kind of posting/commenting really. Finals are done though, school is out now, summer vacation has just begun, so now I'm back in action, kicking back and taking it easy! I'll be taking the next few days to catch myself up on everyone's lovely posts that I missed from the previous week and getting myself back into the swing of things here. Real posting will commence tomorrow!

Let's Play Tag!
The lovely Cindy from quaint handmade tagged me in a fun little q&a. Thought it would be a nice start to the week :)
1. Current obsession: Mugs. I haven't used a glass in months. There is something so handy about that handle...
These pretties are from Three Potato Four. They always have a fun assortment of mugs!
2. One item from my wardrobe I wear most often: My cardigans. I practically own one in every color and length so I can wear one almost everyday no matter what the weather! (Unless it is super hot, which it was over the weekend when it got to 100+ degrees!)
How can I afford so many? I buy from places like forever21.
3. The last thing I bought: This fabulous Orange Container from Etsy.
Perfect for all my little crafty doodads.
4. I’m listening to: Blind Pilot, their music is so heart-felt.
Love their album art too.
5. Any Pets? Why or why not: Way too many. The fam and I love animals. The list goes as follows: Rascal, the orange tabby cat, Bradley, the Germanshepard mix dog, Tuxy & Basil, our terrified of every bump and movement Rabbits, Coco, the cranky Cocotile, and Jack M. Crazy Fish, my beloved Beta. We could be considered our own zoo for goodness sake!
6. My favorite holiday spot: This is so tough! I'm going to have to say the greater Santa Cruz area. You've got the Redwoods, the beach, and that one lighthouse my Mom always drags us to.
Pigeon Point! That's the name of the lighthouse. Photo by Koby Guye.
7. 4 words to describe me: Dependable, quirky, thoughtful, anxious.
8. Guilty Pleasure: Leather purses. Oh my pretties how you drain my wallet.
9. The best thing I’ve had to eat or drink lately: My Morning Coffee. Simple yet satisfying.
From the Keep Calm Gallery.
10. Favorite film: Pride and Prejudice with Keira Knightly.
11. Favorite song: Stay for Good, by Carly Escoto.
12. Favorite Flower: The good old Sun flower.
Probably one of the most photographed flowers around! Photo by Claudia.Ar
13. Who makes me laugh: Anyone really, it's not hard to make me laugh, but Brain Regan does a pretty good job!
Cracks me up every time.
14. First sign of spring: My mother's lilac tree beginning to bloom. That's how I know!
So the great thing about this is I get to tag some other people, hopefully learn a little bit about them and then they get to tag some more people and well you can see where this is going! My choices are Dilly Dallas, Made Sweet & Lovely Little Things. Hope everyone has a great Monday. This is my last Monday of classes for this school year yay!
