*sunshine yellow and....*



*purlease take some time to look at the amazing work is not a job...*


{Well let me tell you folks that one of the hardest things to do on a sunny day is job hunt! My attention span has been about 20 seconds and my ice cream intake has given obese Texan teenagers a run for their money. But needs must. Gotta pay the bills, right? Does anyone out there in blogworld need a professional pinner to help them out? A picture editor? A guest blogger? Well, its worth a try...}

*one day, i will stay at peacock pavilions and be the happiest woman on earth, from my marrakesh*


{Greetings from my back garden, where the blazing sun is making my factor 30 work ever so hard and my desire for endless amounts of Ben & Jerry's Phish Food shows no signs of letting up...on lazy afternoons like this, why travel anywhere at all when you can sup a Pimms and travel sur le net!}

*a girl needs her ezines*


*papercuts from the super-talented sarah louise matthews


{There comes a time when the dishevelled pile of glossy, trend-setting magazines you've been collecting for eons just isn't enough....and that's where ezines like Anthology, Covet Garden and the gorgeous Reverie come in. No more agonizing over which mags to keep when you move! Hoorah!}

*sun, vino blanco and a good book*

This summer will be smokin'!}
