Birthday Flowers from C.



Yes, it was my birfday, and someone sent me flowers from Organic Bouquet to my office! Sooooooo pretty! Sooo schweet of C.R.S! And all of the ladies at work enjoyed them too, and now you get to also:

First Life= T-shirt, Second Life= Pocketbook


So, as my sister and I were perusing Target for Transformer's stuff for our little 80's Optimus Prime party we had, we noticed that there were no Transformer's stuff for girls! Waah? I'm sure some Hasbro marketing people ran a focus group, with a bunch of little girls that refused to have anything to do w/Transformers merchandise, who were NOT adult women in their late 20's/early thirties who watched tv after school when they were little because mom and dad were at work. So, I thought, why not shop in the little boys section? And buy this t-shirt?

Would I wear the above t-shirt? OF COURSE NOT! However, I would wear this:
This is a pocketbook (as they say in New England) constructed from the t-shirt in it's entirety. Only a few little scraps were not utilized. The adorable model, L., was in diapers when the TV show first came out, hehe! I'm seriously carrying this around now, and the hilarious thing is that most of the people I run into have NO IDEA what this logo is....

And did I mention, a Transformers 80's party? Some proof:

Union Square Famer's Market


My sister and I went to the Union Square Farmer's market in somerville--it's nice to go to because it's on Saturday morning. It's small, but it's really fun to look at pretty vegetables and home made pies! as the weeks go by, we will have more veggies to choose from. We brought home a small head of lettuce, some bread, carrots, shelling peas, rainbow swiss chard, and bok choy.
