Indulge me in a little list-making today, would you? Of random bits I've been meaning to tell you:
:: My little shop has been out of stock of signed copies of The Creative Family for some time now, but I'm happy to tell you that they're back now! Remember when ordering that they ship one week from order date, because I'm just little ole' me, not Zappos or anyone like that. Though wouldn't that be dreamy? A warehouse full of shoes? Oh my. (And for those of you who have been so patiently waiting, they're on their way right now! The books, not the shoes.)
:: Also in the shop, are a limited number of these postcard sets. A collection of favorite Treasured Things, 10 flat 4x6 cards and envelopes, all in a muslin pouch.
:: I think I need to give the shirred sundress another go. Some of you reminded me that stopping the shirring at the midway point would help. Wider straps would be good too. And Heather herself gently pointed out that color might be a contributing factor. Of course! Hello black, I love you. I'm determined now...I'll keep you posted!
:: This black bean salad has been rocking our world this week. I made it twice already, and it's totally going on my summer potluck go-to list. Yum.
:: In case any of you are in new puppy & kids territory, I want to tell you that Ian Dunbar is our new hero. And the kids, especially, are learning lots from Dog Training for Children. Oh, puppies.
:: Check it: Purple! Soon to hit the sewing machine.
:: And very last bit of random - SoulePapa's in tomorrow (yay!), and then stay tuned for some serious double giveaway action this weekend!

The sun is (sort of, kind of, maybe) shining for the first time in many days here. We need to get out there! Have a lovely day, everyone!
