real good mood



my morning glories are in a real good mood lately.  good for them i say.  my tomatoes are feeling pretty randy too.  in fact i need to freeze a bunch today or else there will be wasting, which i can't abide.  the picture is of the grape tomatoes mainly because they are growing right by the m. glories and i was too lazy to take a picture of the brandywines which are the real stars of the place.  man alive they are good.  i think i'm averaging a couple real big ones each day.  eating myself i mean.  i'm eating a lot of tomatoes.  i also grew some called german stripe i think.  they are fine but i won't grow them again because they are paupers compared to the b. wines princes.  which is not to say i like princes better than paupers.  in fact i'm definitely more of a pauper type so that was probably the wrong analogy.  and i'm probably boring you with garden talk at this point. 

let's see what else.  i just watched this video:



do you like?  i think i do but i can't decide.  maybe if you like it i will too or if you don't i won't.  such a follower...

and actually i watched half of another video but really way better (i hope diane doen't read this) which is from folk streams.  i highly recommend.  this particular vid and the site as a whole.  it's about the amish.  click amish to follow the link.  i know i don't have my links obvious and in a different colored text.  and i would so totally fix that right now except i need to get back into the studio because i'm doing a shop update this afternoon and i need to stop fecking around.

oh but do my a favor...leave a comment telling me a secret.  it doesn't have to be earth shattering or so totally private that i wouldn't want to know or may get grossed out or anything.  just a little something.  and i promise not to tell anyone.  and then i swear i will tell you some secrets next time.  don't ask why.  mostly because there isn't really a reason and i just thought of it right while i was typing.

looooooove,

cute-zoid






i stopped at a friend's antique place today on a whim and found some great items.  i am a sucker for sweet folky decorative painting these days and i found a couple things i had to get.  i have to say that stuff i may have considered too cute-zoid in the past i am now fawning over.  i think i'll be listing the above bits in the shop tonite or tomorrow morning. 

i'll also be putting this crazy quilt pillow in the shop.  I love the embroidery which looks like fireworks to me.

and if you've asked me about the new inside out pillows, i found a terrific crazy quilt top with stitching on the underside which makes my heart ache a little.  i'll be turning it into inside out pillows next week.

oh, and dahlings, i went to look at a junky old A-FRAME (i just have to put that all in caps every time i write it for some reason) and it's out in the middle-of-nowheres and i mean it.  and all i could hear as i sat there was the wind in the trees and i called the number on the for sale sign and left a message and did you even know that i want to live in the middle of nowheres in a junky old A-FRAME maybe??

hey have a good night.
