Lapin.


When I was a kid, I was obsessed with getting a rabbit. This special bunny I discovered today, who's name is Finnegan, is the very reason why I wanted one! LOOK AT THIS GUY! Even better? He loves his Pug friends and they love him.

A Creepy Li'l Christmas.






I've taken a few pictures of my favorite Christmas ornaments I found at the thrift stores this year. From now on, I will only be collecting weird ornaments for the tree until it's totally creepified by the time I'm 80 (if I don't die of hypochondria before that). I want to be known around town as the creepy Christmas tree/decoration lady. Now if I could only find some weird stuff for the outside of the house...that's a much harder challenge.

What a Beach She Is.


I uploaded a bunch of photos to Flickr of Wicklow Beach that Lee took last year. He has taken a TON of photos and most days it's a different scene down there. The best thing is that it's only 5 minutes down the road from us.

I Missed Out BIG TIME.


Wow, I am kicking myself this morning about an auction for a huge lot of Franciscan Starburst dishes. I would have thought these would sell for about $800. Clearly I was wrong. $200 for all of this! Man, I blew it.

My New Tin Sign & An Old Can Redux




I found this great old sign from a factory the other day for $2.50. It will have a permanent home soon in the kitchen near the sink. Emergency eyewash station here we come!

I also found a use for my old military tub that I had stashed away for years. I bought it when I was in college and I can never part with it. Voila plant stand!
