Chewy, Chewy, Gummy, Gummy!

Wow, am I ever in the mood for chewy and gummy food! For some reason it brings me great
happiness just to be able to experience the textured chew, sweetness, saltiness, and sour by turn.

My mum and I were at the grocery store tonight. I had the option of buying yet another beauty
product, or buying some snacks in the checkout. Well...the snacks won. I bought a long stick
of  beef jerky,


gummy lifesavers,





 and sour patch kids.



I could also go for some Black Forest Gummy Bears. :) My cousin brought some over last week.

They were delish!

What kind of snack are you craving today?

Today's Colors: Robin's Egg Blue and Rust

Today I'm wearing my new thrift store find: an Aeropostale t-shirt in robin's egg
blue that reads 1987 boldly across the front. The numbers look distressed,
and are a shade of ivory. This was a good year for me. :) I happened to be born
that year.

Here's the color. You can find the source here.

Another color (as mentioned above) that goes really well with this is rust. This
happens to be the color of the skirt that I am wearing. Here's the source for
this swatch.




Now isn't that refreshing? It's like a warm day on the beach. :) What color(s) are
you in the mood for today? What happy thoughts do they evoke?

Happy Thought: Gorgeous Market Cart!

As I am planning on traveling to Europe this summer with my dear friend
and her baby, I was thinking about getting a backpack as a carry-on.
God provided one that looks like it was made just for me. The colors.
The roses. My friend recommended that I get one with wheels. Guess what?
It has wheels! And it was on sale! Thank you, Lord! :)

Here's this gorgeous market cart, courtesy of Victorian Trading Co.


Today's Laughing Moments:Bricks and Dinos

I just thought I would share a couple of things that crack me up almost
every time I see them. :)

I think that, because this is SO random and the sound effects so unexpected,
it totally cracked me up. This comes from an episode of Phineas and Ferb:


The next one is from "Meet the Robinsons". The dinosaur looks so ferocious until
he meets his limits. Again, the unexpected humor hits me every time. :D Note: the
tiny bowler on his head is the icing on the cake. :))

Artsy Tartsy :)

I was just musing on some more happy thoughts. What sounds cozy to me tonight?

Keep reading.

~Art museums.
~A large cup of luminous tea with comrades.
~Taking a walk with friends along a cobbled street.
~Just being me.
~Drawing a detailed, down to earth portait of something
unexpected and fun, like a girl leaping with a bundle of
balloons, or someone peaking up over sipping coffee from
a large mug.
~Sunshine on red brick walls.

What inspires you today?

Today's Happy Thought:Chocolate Covered What?

Koppers chocolate covered gummy bears ! It's the best of both gummy and chocolate worlds. : )
Seriously, these are addicting. My sister bought some of these for me, and I have to use self control
not to eat my whole 7.5 oz bag at once. : )

Aren't they cute?
