Cézanne



I really think he is the best painter ever.

Then there is "Douanier" Rousseau.





RAAAAAAAWWWRRR! [chaw chaw chaw]

Leopard head: very chewy.

Friends

Edmée and the new guy spent the weekend together.



She says his name is "Exley" (he only talks to her).

Problem solving

Dish drainer too small because you haven't done your dishes for a week?



Just grab some newspapers and a chair!

Problem solved.

Greg

Turkey genius.





Organic, free range, farmer's market eleven-pounder + nine hours of slow-cooking = best Sunday dinner ever!

Next: turkey pot pie.

Found!

Seed pods!



With many seeds in em!



Cool.

November 5, 2009

Kale season!



It's the best season.

Ideas

Anthropologie catalogue:





I tried a whale.







Not ba-a-a-a-ad, but...I'm going to keep working on it.

(Then make a polie bear cub out of felt!)



Holiday presents on the cheap, yo!

Bauhaus 1919–1933: Workshops for Modernity

Opening.









Loud!

Cookies

All-natural, "artisan," baked by hand, and packaged in a protective atmosphere!





Also: hungry.



Sorry owl, kitty needed a snack!

I want to make me one of these

Don't you love the one orange piece? It's like a heart in a body.



Wary Meyers just finds these things at yard sales.

I want to go to those yard sales!

Saturday morning memories

Me and Greggy, sitting on a bench.



Drinking E-S-P-R-E-S-S-O!

Not pictured: cinnamon bun.

NEW FRIEND!



He just showed up the other day. I think he wiggled in under the door?



Quite the fixed stare he's got.

This is what happens

When you get really busy and forget to monitor the Netflix queue.



Worst three-movie combo EVAR!

Sigh. Just send 'em back.

More baked apples!

I used the bakeware I found!





Worked perfectly.

Mysterious



Why does the social security administration need plastic bags?

What in heck do they put in them?

November 2, 2009

Hair bender

Reason to get out of bed.



Also: $13 for 3/4 lb.

Are we suckers?

Home improvement

Paint from the street!



Nice color, whole can.



Much better than black for our bookshelves.

Found!

A new and hauntingly different novel about a morphine-racked prostitute!











































Hm.

Pretty sure this is terrible, but I'll let you know.

"Back in my day"

We had these things called trees. That grew pine cones.

For free.



AND THEY WERE NOT CINNAMON SPICE SCENTED.

Just sayin.

WHY



I am the worst punkin' carver in the world.

Not scary!

Just weird.

Body parts



CREEPY!

DWI

Greg is one of those people who always has a pen and a notebook, and sometimes when he's had a few drinks he gets an idea for a drawing.

For example:



THAT'S RIGHT!

And...he made this with a Sharpie one night when we had a party:












































Snicker!

Organic happy-chicken

We decided: no more grocery store meat!

Because why add misery to the world? And also it doesn't taste very good.



This chicken: tasty and happy.

Also: $30.

Marriage

Cut your brownie in half.



Give Greg the big piece!

What kind of squirrel are you



If you don't have a pocket full of acorns?

October 28, 2009

Post office visit

The little one by the subway.



Admit that the aesthetic is berserk.

Thank you.

October 27, 2009

Found!

In a sideboard we brought home: plastic T-shirt keychain!



Moderately awesome.

Hm. Or not at all awesome?

Who is this?



Hint: wrinkly, nail-bitten old hand is from the present; fresh young face is from the past (also the ponytails).

BATHROOM ALARM!

Yes, I own this.



I bought it last summer at Value Village, and I just found it in a box.

This is going up on the bathroom door—TWO TAPS!

October 25, 2009

Remember these?



I had these pencils when I was a kid. They work pretty good for grown-up stuff too.

There always seems to be one more sharp lead!

October 23, 2009

Found!

Four lovely mugs.



Three for drinking black coffee (me), one for coffee with milk (Greg).

They were on the street with the baking ware.

Bears



More like cats than I realized!

I only left the room for ONE SECOND.
