homemade ice cream::

tomatoes from mom's garden

  • Homemade blackberry ice cream is delicious.
  • Tomatoes from the garden are five trillion times better than the ones from the store. I've been making caprese salad like crazy.
  • Ideas for a fall/winter line that I have been working on since last winter. Somehow I need to bring all my ideas together and find out how on earth they will all go together. Oh yeah, and the time?
  • I made that linen smock and am thinking I might sew up a few to sell. Just have to finish a few deadlines first. Agh...you think maybe I could invent something that would create more TIME???
  • OMG, my big brother turns 30 today! And tomorrow it is August 1st. What the heck? Where has summer gone?!
  • It's FRIDAY!

  3. I'm beaming to see your Etsy shop!! I know it shall be beautiful!! :) I've often thought of opening up a second shop with historical attire and pretties...but the headache of running two distinctly different shops always puts a damper on my thoughts. ;)

    Oh! Blackberry iced cream! what bliss! I've just discovered wild blackberries growing along the path up to our post box....so now I always bring a little dish with me to pick them!! tee hee!!

    Happy weekend-times to you! :)

  4. Haha! It's great that you grow your own tomatoes! It must be a lot of work, but it's sure worth it! That smock is pretty great also :) I'm pretty shocked it's August already as well! I haven't worn half the stuff i bought for this summer! But it's still pretty hot, so hopefully a warm September would be a great time to linger on with some summery dresses...

  5. Cute dress! Oh, don't you just love tomatoes? I finally got a job packing them at a local farm where they grow heirloom varieties. Some of the tomatoes are actually purple, yellow, or striped ;-)
