a big trip, a fabulous party, a surprise, some bout of good luck... wish we had something new and exciting to report. truth is it's been pretty quiet around here. dabney's been exploring new designs, while i have been tinkering with the new sewing machine (which i love, by the way).
which leads us to share the mundane:
our mail carrier brought us a little package. inside was this: a thank you gift from our local npr station. we think ira glass is da bomb, so this was a welcome addition to our public radio mug collection.
dinner that dabney made was yummy last night - casserole with black beans and butternut squash, covered in a thin layer of polenta. this picture probably makes it look disgusting. it wasn't.
oh yes, when there's nothing going on, i take pictures of the dog. the crusty stuff on his nose is remnants of his dinner. nasty.
though we did get a nice surprise when will stopped by and brought us this little gem he found while cleaning out his aunt's house. the box is mint- circa the 70s at least. it obviously channeled the future back then; the image is me cutting fabric. and no, i did not add the nipples and the belly button with my sharpie; they were already there.
I got the mug in the mail too! But I don't quite understand it. Any insight?
ReplyDeleteI also got the This American Life dvd - a taste of the show's tv debut on Showtime. Woo!
yes, the mug was a little above our heads, too. guess it was a tongue and cheek look at the show's future. dj savage is a real guy, though i don't know if he is really signed up to host in 2010.
