fff vol 60


Favorite finds from the past week:


Etsy find of the week:


I just had to share these totally awesome glasses! As you all know, I very rarely drink soda. But when I do, it's Boylans. These would be perfect for my kitchen!


Please can I move in?


I am in love with this room and all those hanging plants. I need to do an updated post on how my plants have grown since I last posted about them. I also need/ want to get some hanging plants as well.


Get in my belly!


While the mister and I now eat meat, there was a very long period of time (over ten years) that we were both vegetarians. We still love eating veggie burgers and I get "fake meat crumbles" all the time to make sloppy joes. Plus I have been on a sprout kick lately and want to buy a kit so that I can start growing my own.

When we lived in Northampton, MA - there was this amazing vegetarian/ vegan sandwich shop called "Fire and Water" that we used to eat at all the time. One of the sandwiches I used to get was packed with sprouts on top. It was so yummy and I've had a serious caving lately.


Tee shirt of the week:


I've been a fan of this shop for quite a while and had this tee-shirt as a favorite forever. Then I happened to come across it again this week and I saw it wasn't "favorited" and realized I had it saved to my vintage shop favorites profile instead of my new Etsy shop profile that I use 95% of the time. I immediately put it back in my favorites and once I have a little extra spending money, this shirt WILL be mine!


I can't believe my vacation is drawing to an end. I didn't do too much, please the mister was sick for nearly the entire week. Worked on my bog, my shop, made soaps (and deodorants- coming soon!!) and some baking. But it was so nice to just be able to sleep in (something I never do, hahah still it was usually only until 8 but that's very late for me!) and not have any definite plans for the days. I could get used to it. Working on projects and being free to do as I please..ah..someday it will happen.

No big weekend plans either. Farmer's market is tomorrow. Only tomorrow and one more and then it will be the open, outdoor market - in which I will be a vendor!! My main goal is to make enough money each week to pay our food bill. Anything more than that I will be ecstatic! 

What are your weekend plans?

Ah, that t-shirt is adorable! :D Also, that sandwich does indeed look YUM. I don't think I have EVER ate a sandwich topped with sprouts. I assume I am missing something EPIC.

Our weekend will hopefully consist of cleaning our living area, working in the backyard and relaxing. I also have a new bike that Jen ordered for me which is coming TODAY (since it's after midnight)!!! I can't WAIT to go ride around on that baby. :D

I wrote up a post about The Hive Botanicals. If you stop by, I hope you like. :D

i must own that shirt and take ella for a walk while wearing it hahah.

and thank you so much for the amazing write up!! the sea kelp soap is also good for acne - i use the activated charcoal everyday, but i have a customer who swears that the sea kelp is just as amazing (if not more so) for acne.

hope you have a great weekend riding around your awesome new bike!

i thought they were super neat, apparently not too hard to make yourself..but well..for me they would probably shatter in my face!
Yeah those soda glasses are fun! I've only seen it done with beer bottles... I'd be tempted to try someday as they say cutting bottles isn't that hard - but I'd rather not slice my mouth in half either! Have a healthy, relaxed weekend!

Thanks so much for featuring my glasses, Trisha. You are a peach! LOVE that tee, too :)

no problem- they are so awesome! did you make them?
Those glasses are so fun. They would go SO well in you kitchen.

Bummer that your holidays are wrapping up, but by the looks of things you've kept yourself busy with designing and launching your new blog and coming up with promos and such for your shop. You're quite the lady! ;)

I received my letter and soap today!! I can't wait to shower. :)

I'll have something off to you shortly. xo

i did keep myself busy - kevin was actually sick all week - so i just kinda hung out and took it "easy" as well. by that i mean i wasn't running around with my head cut off wanting to do this and that - i stayed focused on the blogs and around the house projects

glad the soap got to you ok - hope you like it!
