Freckles

I was sitting in the car yesterday, with my foot up on the windshield (don't worry, I wasn't driving). And noticed a freckle on the side of my middle toe I had never seen before. It was a funny little moment.

Also, I figured out what Ben is getting me for my big 2-3 coming up in July!

I had emailed him a link to T R Mack's Etsy shop, saying that when we buy art, we should buy one of his paintings first. About 6 hours later, he cracked at dinner and spilled the beans.

I'm pretty sure it looks like the one above.
Which, incidentally, reminds me of freckles. And everything comes full circle.

Mesmerizing

While perusing the latest posts on Design Talk over at 2 Modern (I post every monday!), I became amazed by this image from a pavement painting featured in the Festival of World Cultures last year in Ireland. 

It was painted by Edgar Muller, along with assistants, and was so real looking that many people actually bent down to make sure the ground was there. There's a really neat video with epic music in the background here . Fantastic.
