i officially bought my first christmas gift tonight…i just couldn’t resist. well, that’s not counting all the little gifts i collect and jam in a box/drawer thoughout the year.  bE WArNed!!! one of you may find this in your christmas stocking.  this thing is clever AND hysterical. i love it. it keeps your banana from becoming banana pudding in your bag..haha!!

p.s.—what the eff is a banana bunker,”that’s what i said”…not to be confused with a banana hammock, yep!! couldn’t resist :O)

i love chandeliers, but a traditional one wouldn’t work so well in our house.  THEN, i found this one made of wood.  i might need to buy this and spray paint it chartreuse (to match our 1/4 round trim) and find that special place for it :O)

in search of the perfect replacement hat for my “lost” black hat with white polka dots…i must show a new favorite and an old favorite.  the pink one is by a organization called trillium artisans out of portland. they have all sorts of lovely handmade things…i love the lawn chair pouches. the second picture is of my all time fave black faux fur hat by chia guillory of chia hats here in austin.

the last image is of my favorite summer hat that i wore all the time.  recently, i took it to california with me and i think it fell out of my bag on the plane in san francisco.  it’s made by the company called san diego hat company.  if you happen to find one….please, please let me know.  yes, there will be something in it for you :O) heehee!!

i have spent an embarrassing amount of time looking everywhere, both virtually and physically, that i can think of with no such luck. maybe one day i will get lucky at a garage sale or a thrift store and find it….not my original one but a replacement.  i had a dream that i found it at the yoga studio on a heaping pile of lost and found.  big fat goose egg for that one too…….at least when i tell people that would care that i lost my hat, “i lost my hat in san francisco i get a chuckle out of it because i feel like i am singing a song…hat, heart, it’s all the same.

chris and i watched this amazing and beautiful movie the other night called fur:an imaginary portrait of diane arbus. it’s an unusual charming story depicting diane arbus (nicole kidman) falling in love lionel sweeney, a man that has hypertrichosis…or werewolf syndrome. lionel is played by robert downey jr.
