kitchen sink, skinny dippin' and twine

I scrubbed out my kitchen sink today--it always feels so good to have a clean and shiny sink, doesn't it?

I couldn't resist taking these pics of Calvin in the wading pool.  Won't he love seeing these when he's older?  He was walking around the yard picking up random things and throwing them in.  In the top pic are my (dirty) gardening gloves and Lily's flip flops.  Nice!

And I blogged about Whisker Graphics in this post about halfway down here.  I just love her divine twine and am thrilled to see it in the latest issue of Martha Stewart Living here.

dreaming...

I don't dream of new cars or big diamonds, oh no.  I dream of kitchens.  Lovely retro kitchens!  Ahh, I am in love.
