Week in Review-B/C I didn't post any... Part 1

I'm a bad blogger. Not only am I uninteresting, but I didn't post this whole week. What was that whole schedule thing?? I have excuses though. Er, reasoning? Something about being busy (a.k.a. playing World of Warcraft) and also a picnic-type birthday party where we had lively discussions about praying mantis love-making/eating habits among other things, and I tried hummus (yum!).

Saturday I hit up Finds & Designs and Simply Whisk with miss Nikki and we tried to visit another place where we haven't been (Mug & Pia), but the parking was non-existent and the sky was preparing to open up into a 4 hour straight downpour. Next Time!

I did buy something I've been wanting at Simply Whisk since I first entered the store.



Rainbow pasta. Absolutely precious, I hate the thought of eating it. I may keep it for decorative purposes in a glass vase (when I find one with a lid I like) until I decide to finally cook and serve it.

At Finds and Designs, after I drooled over their furniture and a skirt that was too small for me, I picked up this Japanese hat which I will most likely hang from the ceiling in the guest bedroom.


Today we visit Borders which as most likely everyone knows, is going out of business. I'm not much of a reader, but it's still a little sad to think it's going to be gone. Mostly because Seattle's Best has gone with it and that means no more Cookies 'n' Creme Javakula for me.

I did pick up a few things...

...an Arina Tanemura art book (one my favorite artists-Full Moon wo Sagashite & Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne, etc.).

... Panic! At the Disco Vices & Virtues

...The Divine Comedy & a cheapo copy of Beowulf.


When I look at them like this... I feel like they don't really go together...

I'm gonna post to blogs back to back to make up for the lack thereof this week.
