$34...

I snagged this peacock print for only $34 from Universe Trading Company.  It's rather large, measuring 65X32 inches- I have no idea where I'll be hanging it, but I couldn't pass it up. A gorgeous find on a gorgeous day capped off by a nice visit to Forsyth Park.

Here fishy, fishy, fishy

This kitschy fish vase is the only treasure I've found at our sketchy Salvation Army. 



In keeping with the fish theme I finally visited the Georgia Aquarium this week. I could have stayed all day- it was amazing.

Etsy



I love Etsy.  It's so much less commercial than Ebay. I can always find something I can't live without. So if anyone wants to get me a little gift... I'll take the 1940's indian couple or that killer Dior turban. Thanks in advance!

Thanks Ted...


I found  this great vintage leather belt at Goodwill today complete with a Baron belt buckle from 1978. The belt is in great condition for a vintage piece.. Just the right amount of wear & tear. So thank you Ted, wherever you are.

A day at the beach

A summer tip:  Never cheap out & buy store brand sunscreen. I'm pretty sure it's just baby oil in a can. And it smells terrible..  like cheap hairspray. Yuck.

Goonies never say die!


Such a cult classic plus a young Josh Brolin... What more could a person ask for? Happy 25th anniversary to The Goonies.

RIP Rue McClanahan


Blanche Devereaux, you'll always be the ultimate tramp.

The Bird & The Bee...

We play a great cover of Hall & Oates "Kiss On My List" at work and last night I discovered The Bird & The Bee. They're an indie duo from Los Angeles who recently did a tribute album to Hall & Oates. Their cover of "Rich Girl" makes me smile. Enjoy :)
