Two out of three's not bad.

Mobile Fish

I probably spend too much mental energy on my pet goldfish, Goldie Hawn.   Whatever.  It’s healthier than spending that energy on, oh, say, Ebola (boom!).  Plus, she really is super!  Which begs the question, wouldn’t it be great if I could take her with me all the time?

Like this:

Or this:

What About Bob?

Bisous!

If I were..

When I was little I used to sing this song, I don’t really remember how it starts but one line goes, “If I were a fish in the sea…I’d wiggle my tail and I’d giggle with glee…”

And then I found this:

Happy Monday! Bisous!!

C'est si bon

I've always loved the song, C'est si bon. For me, falling down a YouTube rabbit hole, listening to different versions of the same song - especially jazz - is one of life's simple joys.  And this tune does not disappoint. It's so good! (Get it?)  I think my favorite version is from:

The Hot Sardines

Right, how great are they?!  *Bonus tap dance? Stop.   

But how can you not love, Louis Armstrong?

Dean Martin's irreverence is always charming.

Yves Montand's performance is a bit odd - with the hand and the face. Obviously, I still love it.

And then, I felt like Howard Carter when he discovered King Tut's tomb. Eartha Kitt (!!)

1. Have you seen anyone more glamorous? 

2. Did you know she was Catwoman? 

3. How does she make her voice growl like that?

Thank you, internet!

Bisous!

All. Over. The. Place.

Perhaps it's just the shift in weather. Perhaps it's the beginning of my professional "busy season." Perhaps I'm just neurotic and this is to be expected from time to time. Despite the ambiguity of the source, I've definitely been feeling a little crazy lately. Unfocused and all over the place. I guess mixed emotions can be their own brand of lovely, no?

Happy October!

Indecision...

...may or may not be my problem. -Jimmy Buffet

It's true. I am having trouble deciding how to recover my (super cute!) Queen Anne sofa purchased off Craigslist in...JULY(!).

*Note: not my actual sofa (I don't have a picture of it, actually) but you get the idea of the shape.

It definitely needs some love. Don't get me wrong, I have love to give it, but deciding which fabric to use - color, texture, pattern - has become my own personal brand of torture. Because, when you love (almost) everything, narrowing everything down is, umm, tortuous. I know. My life is so hard. Ok. So, my goal is to pick a fabric by the end of this weekend. Eeeep!

Here's what I DO like:

LUSH, BLUSH PINK

I could do this all day - all day, yo!  I'm clearly all over the map.  Which means this weekend should be filled with some serious soul-searching.

Bisous!
