isn’t she the cutest? skfl gave her to me a few valentine’s days ago. you can find her and her buddies over on etsy. she stays dust-free in a baseball display case, and made a special appearance for a sunday afternoon photoshoot. i realized i had not picked up my digital slr camera since early [...]

i haven’t blogged in a while (again), oops. i have a bunch of stories to share with you, but have been too busy cooking watching television. in the meantime, look at how rad our washing machine is. that thing is all about the stain removal. the options in the photo below make me giggle like [...]
