Mikki is one of my bestest friends, and I’m really glad she is here and living with me.

Tonight, we were playing around with photobooth, and we were laughing to the point of crying and having our stomachs ache from how long we were laughing. I love laughing like that.

It started like this:

Then we went glamor model girls:

It quickly turned into this:

Morphed into this:

(yes, world, you should be VERY VERY scared that there are now two of me, and that Mikki’s has finally gone public about the second head she has)

And by this point, we were pretty much in hysterics:

And always remember, on some days if you feel you need a little OOMPH, well, now the Flying Mermaid is available in technicolor and stripes:

Cowboys and angels

Cowboys and angels are riding the freeways and byways tonight.

Some are running away — from troubles, from grief, from the version of themselves they are trying to leave behind.

Some are running to a destination — to love, to celebrations, to wherever their magic is most needed.

You think you know which ones are which, and sometimes you are right.

But sometimes, you find an angel in disguise, riding the highway, just waiting for you when you most need them. And sometimes…you might not know that you crossed paths with an angel because they don’t always reveal their true nature. But always know, there are always angels out riding with the cowboys.

Me, being silly, and dancing wildly around my kitchen.

This pretty much describes how I am most of the time 🙂

Prompt from journalingprompts.com

Love smells like daisies, fresh and bright

Love smells like sea roses, alluring, different and richer than what you were expecting

Love smells like the earth after a rain, clean and alive

Love smells like the rich earth in a forest, deep, mysterious, the root of all things

Love smells like the sea, deep, vast, constant but always changing, full of life

Love smells like cinnamon, spicy sweet

Love smells like after a thunderstorm, new with an electric charge in the air

Love smells like home.

What does love smell like to you?

Friday’s Feast

Appetizer

Have you ever played a practical joke on anyone?  If so, what did you do and who was your victim?

Hm. Well, I don’t know if this counts as a practical joke or not. But senior year of college, I was living with one of my closest friends, Rosemary, and we had two rooms in the basement of this woman’s house. Our landlord was a little…off, shall we say? She made our time there often stressful and upsetting, and she was very religious and had a very religious and odd boyfriend. Rosemary was given a book about how to make/build your own S&M equipment (we think that she was given the book as a joke). So, we went through the book, folding down some of the more…interesting…pages and underlining certain descriptive passages. And we left it in her bookcase when we moved out. We never found out if she or her boyfriend, but our goal was for the boyfriend to find it >:)  

Soup

What do your salt and pepper shakers look like?

Pepper mill and the container you buy the salt in.  

Salad

Where is the next place you plan to visit (on vacation or business)?

The next place I’m visiting is NH! I don’t know if that is a vacation though, it is only for the weekend. But I am very, very excited about my trip (in two weeks, and then again at the end of March 🙂

Main Course

What kind of lotion or cream do you use to keep your hands from getting too dry?

Cetaphil or Aveeno daily moisturizer. I’m a sensitive skin girl.  

Dessert 

Make up a dessert, tell us its ingredients, and give it a name.

Vanilla soy ice cream, chocolate sauce, raspberry jam and maybe chocolate chips. Vanilla-choco-raspberry happiness.

I wanted to go on a photoshoot, with the intention of shooting simple country beauty, and the signs of spring that are all around, even on grey cold days where you have to look a little closer to see spring. I was no more than a 10-minute drive from my house.
