OOTD: Flowers, Glass and Bronchitis.

Hello! I thought I'd do a quick little outfit post. Nothing special, but at least it's something! When warmer weather rolls around, I want to be out more and take pictures. I also want to take outfit pictures without a coat on! This particular day last week we went to an exhibit featuring ornate floral arrangements that were created locally. It was beautiful, but didn't help my longing for gardening and soil on my hands! Since the last weekend in February, I've had bronchitis, so I wasn't able to fully smell the wonderful aromas from the arrangements. Unfortunately my Mom and Brother managed to get it, too. After this exhibit, we went to an exhibit featuring Tiffany stained glass windows and other Tiffany creations. The process of making stained glass windows is fascinating and I would love to try it someday.

August Purchases

Hello everyone, I hope you all had a splendid August. Where I live, it's been hot and humid. I want to get out of the house, even just on the patio would be nice. However, I find myself outside for no more than 5 minutes and wanting to go back into the house with it's refrigerator-like air. And if it is nice enough to open windows, there always seems to be some prick farmer that is spreading crap on his field. The joys of living in the Midwest. Anyway, lets see the pretty things of August, shall we?
