Raindrops on roses, whiskers on kittens.

Today had the perfectly good start to a great day...hence the fantastic pink font! :) Let me show you all the happy things that helped to put a little smile on my face.




These are my spices on the fridge. You can not help but get a little smile on your face when you see them. They have a magnet on the back. HELLO!!! Pure joy!



I am a lover of all things good and pottery! About 98% of my dishes in the cupboard are all pottery...as they should be! This is a desert plate by Frankoma Pottery. An oklahoman that made his life with his hands. Doesn't get much better than that. This plate always makes me smile so of course I chose it for my breakfast this morning. The only place you can get his stuff any more are at flee markets and junk stores, so I am always on the look out when I go to Oklahoma. Diamond in the rough!







Is it possible for two little things over easy to bring such pure delight into my life? Am I nuts or do I just enjoy the simple pleasures of day to day life. Yolks are runny fo sho.....who do you think I am anyway?







I love the fishes cause they're so delicious. One fish two fish green fish blue fish. This is one of my glasses in a set of 6 different designs. They are all fun and crazy like this. The best thing is that these glasses came from Great Honks. Okay the real name of this dollar store is Honks...but when you find steals like this one you must officially change the name of the store to Great Honks....plain old Honks no longer works. Can life get better than drinking out of a glass with crazy blue fish on it...I think not!





After the amazing start I had this morning I trompsed outside to find my car like this. I know what you are thinking...hey at least the driver side door doesn't have that much snow it....not so bad right? WRONG! It has less snow on it because I already opened it. Don't worry that it was sealed shut!!!! Frozen with a layer of ice. I was affraid that the little foamy strip inside the door was going to rip off. It did not, however, all the snow that was on that window was suddenly inside my driver side door on my seat. ARG! I feel like I am quickly becoming a pirate.






As I began to scrap off the snow I found that the whole car was covered in ice. Thick ice. I began to put a little elbow grease in it to try and get the stuff off. This was the moment that I wished I was not single because I would have had an amazing husband that let me stay in bed a little longer while he scraped off the car. *sniff* *sniff* So as you can tell by the picture my trusted dusty $15 ice scraper...best one the store had could not enough hold up against such of feet. It snapped like a little toothpick and sent pieces of plastic flying everywhere. How in the heck does something like this even happen? More pirate transformation as we speak....ARGH!!!







Seeing red are we? Using a broke scraper only makes is harder to get the stuff off your car and definetely gets more snow all over you! This is a classic stair that I learned from the best angry face maker in the world...Mom! Love you Jeanne B!



So, inorder to improve my pirate mood that was insuing, when I got to school I stole someone's cheese from the fridge and ate it. Nothing feels better than a little ill gotten gain....muwha ha ha. Maybe this behavior will only incourage my piracy and not stop it. HMMMM???

Remember when my scraper did the same thing and a piece of it lodged in my eye?

don't worry that I laughed out super loud when I scrolled down and saw your angry face picture.

I think you could rearrange your spice jars to make a real smiley face on your fridge.

I still laugh when I see the angery mom face.
