I read his wife's blog, she has a love of turquoise like me: http://mabelshouse.blogspot.com/

I got this le creuset kettle for Christmas from the husband, I LOVE it and its cheery red color.

I scored these super cute salt & pepper shakers at a weird vintage flea

night market in gastown a couple weeks ago.

NEW LAPTOP! Courtesy of my awesome work, who heard my cries of despair with my old one

Project Bedroom!

I decided it was time to finally start a few things in this sadly neglected room of ours.

Some typeography art for above the bed kind of freshened up the place to start...

then, I decided to tackle the bedside tables!

*fun fact: i bought these when I was 16 at Ikea with my mom, they were pine, and like $15 each.

I then proceeded to stain them orange for some reason. My parents just shrugged and probably were relieved that

I'd rather paint furniture in the backyard instead of getting drunk behind London Drugs. That came later. HA

from boring, practical brown to sunshiney yellow!

Getting there! The room was too messy for a full shot, but baby steps people, baby steps.

i'm BACK.

:)

of course I did.

Yeah. Guess what color?

Today was errand day! I managed to work in the morning, go to a dentist appointment, come home, work for an hour, then walk down the street with my cat in a carrier to her vet appointment, then come home, work some more.

Then I napped. HARD. While watching Storage Wars, which BTW is my favorite guilty pleasure show. Oh.. aside from Teen Mom and Jersey Shore of course. I'm classy like that.

And then it was Thursday! This week is flying by! Only 8 days till California!

Random Awesomeness: Every Saturday until October, there is a farmers market across the STREET FROM MY HOUSE.. ehfdufejhgfuwerjf!!!!
Last week we walked over and I got local berries, peas, organic sourdough bread, homemade cookies, ate tacos and had agave sweetened lemonade. Hippie deliciousness!
Every week the vendors will rotate so I'm excited to check it out again!

Holy CRAP!!!!

IM IN APARTMENT THERAPY!!!!!!!!!!

I'M KIND OF freaking out. I never thought my apartment would get featured. WTF!
