1. I think this clock is actually hideous, just because I'm opposed to tacky writing on mass produced decorations for the most part (This is a product of Target). But it did make me giggle a little because I was actually in Target a few days ago, and was contemplating getting a clock to fill space on my wall... but soon realized what a ridiculous idea this was. One, because the idea of having a clock staring at me, when I already have a phone on constant alarm that sits beside my bed... is simply too much of a reminder that I'm either late, wasting time, wanting more time, or having all the time in the world. I do not want to be reminded that it even exists. So, f*ck the clocks! BUT, if I do happen upon a clock in the shape of an elephant one day... well, I might change my mind.
2. Mary Temple created this installation using latex paint. I wish this use of light was as easy to recreate for all of us, especially during these winter months. I'm in love.
3. My initial reaction to this chandelier was simply "WOW." But there are two kinds of WOW. The good Wow, and the bad Wow. Haven't made up my mind which one is really speaking to me. Oh, and I was wrong, there are three Wow's... how silly of me to exclude the computer game that I will just never understand.
4. I walked past the donut prep area at work today and found these two piles of jelly and custard and immediately thought how they looked like brains. If that doesn't turn you off from jelly or custard donuts, I don't know what will.
5. Had dinner with the family tonight. Mom made a delicious goat cheese/cranberry salad and also a Tequila Shrimp Pasta dish AND, being the wonderful mother she is, actually made the same dish separately with chicken for me since I have this sort of shrimp phobia. We accompanied this with a subtle red zinfandel called Layer Cake which has a spicy finish to it. And another red zinfandel called Twisted, which was a bit sweeter. I enjoyed the former most. Deeeeelicious.
