Duplicity

I follow a lot of crafty mama blogs, and they all use a certain set of terms that are just funny to me.  I have a degree in Marketing, so I understand the idea of language marketing.  Still it's funny.  Here are the words that get me.

vintage (ummm you mean, old?)

re-purposed, or upcycled (hmmm recycled?)

inspiration (let's be honest, we're all stealing ideas)

I guess they are funny to me, because I get sucked into using them, and sucked into looking at stuff and thinking it's cooler when it's "vintage" or "repurposed".  Instead of just an old, recycled t-shirt.

New Music

I'm spending my day off baking 24 loaves of bread.  I was given some friendship bread starter a couple of months ago and I have officially run out of friends to give it to.  So...I kept all four bags, and am baking all of the bread and ending the cycle.  It's a little sad.  I've got 8 loaves baked, 2 in the oven, and can do no more in the process until I free up some dishes.


So, for now I am catching up on my internet stalking.  In doing so I came across this band...very beautiful.




It makes me want to turn the music up, lie on my bed and listen to it over and over. Feeling very somber and smart.

Be Mine

I've gotten several banner orders, but I had to squeeze in one just for me.  And then I loved it so much I actually made another one just for me, but didn't get a picture of it yet.

One

I have one.  One follower.

 I'm totally a bad-ass blogger.

Okay, I'm not...but thank you to my one follower.
