I'm with you Edward, I go to great lengths to make sure nobody knows when my birthday is at work. There are few things worse than an office birthday party. Some folks mean well, but they're still excruciating.
I would have paid anythng for that fabulous sweater too--I can see why you had to have it! Please post pictures of you wearing it when it arrives.
The shoes are killer too. Congrats--great purchases.
Rubyredlocks you are really, really making me want to cut my hair again--yours looks so adorable. Love the outfit too.
Volitile--your whole look is great but especially love the hat on the back of your head and the vest.
Johanna--gorgeous as usual. How did you find a sweater that...
My birthday is in mid-June--often during one of the first summer heatwaves. I generally get taken out to dinner by friends on the closest Saturday to "the day" rather than have a party. My birthday is rarely wonderful, rarely awful. It's usually pleasant.
I finished the mantle tonight.
The creche is a family piece, a combination of at least 2 different ceramic sets made in Italy probably in the 1950's.
I bought the larger pieces on ebay. They are all chalkware, made in Germany right after WWII.
Edward, for some reason this reminds me of what my mother frequently tells my 5'5" self;
"Your father was 6'2" and I'm 5'11"...you're supposed to be taller!"
Oops, sorry Mom, guess I just forgot to keep growing. My fault, clearly. ;)
You always post the best pics Clara--the Fay Wray one is classic! (Love your spotted coat too).
Did you bring your own chains to lash yourself and your friend to the track or did the museum provide them?;)
I (finally!) just finished Rebecca.
I want to start Atonement but I can't find a copy thanks probably to other like-minded moviegoers.
I may start A Wrinkle in Time instead. I've never read it and I have a friend who's nudging me.
