Dear John

Thanks for the memories, they are lovely. I won't be returning to you as I have fallen in love with somewhere new.
Best Wishes

Take those scissors away.

 I gave myself a hair cut tonight.... .

Not the brightest crayon always... but at least I  would be a sunshiny color

Hooties

It's a little "whooville" around my house
Meet Owl #1 This lovely friend I found at a garage sale. He loves living with the plants.

Owl#2
The unburnable candle, that's right, I am one of those people, and apparently so was the person before me.

Owl#3
My long awaited cookie jar. Lorissa and I found this beauty at a candy/antique store.
Like really could you have two better things in one store??
*Please note lovely pink chair~ This beaut was brought home with my roommate Rachelle after a night on the town.*

Owl #4 and 5
Meet my brass hooters, they are my view while doing dishes, these little guys came from a local
thrift in Richmond B.C
Owl #6
I found this blue hooter at a garage sale. The old man who sold it to me told me about his wife's friend who had 70 or so owls in her home... Here's too hoping I don't go that EXTREME!

Owl #7
My friend Paul just bought me this guy from a garage sale, he's pretty fabulous.

And there you have it, some of my Owl collection/ obsession.

Another reason to love Vancouver....

BLACKBERRIES
These babies grow wild.
30 min in the rain, a few cuts on our hands, and a few giant spiders later
We have three bucket's of these babies.
Blackberry Jelly here I come.

Silver Fish

Gross right?
Apparently these little buggers love  dark, moist, cracks and crannies... So pretty much they love Vancouver and not to mention my apartment.
Today I looked up at my beautiful bowl light in the kitchen to see a bunch of these critters scampering around.
I also found one or two in my tub, one in my cupboard, and one climbing on my roomies towel.. and after a bit of research I am pretty grossed out.. Especially since they are nocturnal,  now I  imagine them climbing all over my face as I sleep.
BLEH..
 Wish me luck getting rid of these little buggers.. It doesn't sound like an easy task..
