Summer is blankets on grass, bare feet, tank tops, sandals, shorts, sprinklers, outdoor gathering, and heat. |
Purple is the best color ever! I completely forgot about that purse I made for you. I hope your having a great summer.
ReplyDeleteJust want to say I love you.. And miss you..
ReplyDeleteMy summers keep changing. This is definitely the summer of cooking, blog bravery, and playing cello. I don't go to concert anymore because HH can't deal with crowds or loud noises, but I sure am enjoying your photos of them!

I wasn't really into purple, but then I ended up wearing it to prom. It's actually a pretty awesome color. I especially love purple lipstick. My goodness, those purple suede boots of yours are insane in the best way possible.
ReplyDeleteMay the force be with you.

Sigh- I love L.M. Montgomery's stories- so enchanting! You have an amazing tight collection and I love the purse your Mum made! Very funky art pages, really like the floral like drawings!
ReplyDeleteI love that purse your friend made. I have a brightly printed cotton version my sister brought me back from Africa. I use it as a lunch bag, not because I don't value it but because I get to see and use it every day (and it's easy to wash!)
