Thanks Ikea

I was at Ikea yesterday looking for a parking space. I found a sweet empty spot right up front but when I was about to pull in I saw this sign. I actually drove off to look for another space before I realized that I was driving a hybrid and that spot was for ME!

1. Septemberbird tagged me to write 7 random things about myself. That's pretty random so it counts as number one.

2. I'm currently reading Moon's Crossing by Barbara Croft. Sparrow gave it to me a while ago and I finally started reading it last week. I love it! The author has a genius way of seamlessly handling changes in time and location.

3. Tonight I will watch my favorite TV show, 30 Rock.

4. In my CD player - The Cars (that's a dorky fact that maybe I should not share)

5. Only 2 people read this blog (Hi!)

6. I can hear a distant train whistle from my house every night at 11:35.

7. I just drank a glass of orange/mango juice.

What to make for dinner

making dinner, originally uploaded by harthillsouth.

I made this recipe from Cottage Living. I substitued udon noodles for the bow-ties and green beans for the snap peas but I have also made it according to the recipe, both ways are delish.

Clover

To make up for never posting I thought I'd share this amazing poster from Crooked Letter Press. Seriously, I love this.

Favorites

These are a few of my flickr favorites. I like the muted orange palette today.

Ready for Fall

Matthew Mead has put up his Fall ideas and I loved this photo of his transferware - maybe I should stack all mine up for a photo shoot too?

a day in the sun

This was my lunch today : red pear, wheat crackers and goat cheese with French herbs. The cheese is from Cheesy Girl a local farm that has the cutest packaging (as you can see) and makes some dynamite cheese!

It is sunny and hot hot hot today so I'm drying clothes on the line to keep the dryer from heating up the whole house. Our new AC comes on Thursday so that should help.

stickers

On a whim I ordered a moo sticker book of some of my flickr shots. Now I can't wait for those sticky little buggers to get here! I'm a-quiver with anticipation!

Photo Finish

So I'm a cheapskate. Flickr needs to deal with that. Sweetgumshade - my new home.
