So further along the road more domestic, I am finally painting our window boxes. Yeah... remember that project from [cough]
... We'll see. You know my track record.
I have turned my kitchen into a painting war-zone. Clive Owen was underneath one of my boxes so I gave him a paintbrush-kiss. He is extremely attractive. A friend of mine called him, "The best looking caveman" which may be part of his appeal. He's attractive enough that I don't even care to analyze it -I just know what I know. Smooch to C.O.
So.
I have also set up a couple of ashtrays with supplies from my local hardware store (where I went today with blood smeared on my face without knowing it this morning. The check out girls were suspicious of me... I wonder why. A cut on my thumb later turned out to be the source.) ANYWAY. I bought two small metal buckets and put desert sand in them and topped them with some seashells that I brought back from the Outer Banks a couple of years ago. We are going to be having people over for BBQ's this Summer and a lot of my friends smoke and I hate having our ground/steps littered with butts. So here is a practical, cheap, and friendly solution.
I also bought these magazine storage containers from Solutions.com which I highly recommend. I sort through them once a year and throw out mags that I don't want amymore, but this way I can reference them, see which mag I'm looking at through the clear plastic, and have them stored in an attractive, dust-free way.
Are you aware of African Rooibos tea? I'm sure most of you are - it's been a big hit in the U.S. for a long time. But I'm just mentioning it, because it's vanilla flavored (sometimes), decaffeinated, and filled antioxidants if you're into that sort of thing. It's dee-lish, as my family would say.
Ok! Off to sew and do some dishes before improv rehearsal. Ciao!
