My Nouveau-ish Look

Thank you Kari for the awesome template design! I really like the Benjamin Moore Palladian Blue accents...they really pop against the beige. Yeah, I have obviously been watching too much HGTV again. They are always commenting on colors that pop. Okay, I accomplished one thing today...I spray painted the doorbell cover. This one is fairly unsatisfying though, because even with two coats of spray paint, it is still the ugliest thing ever. A better accomplishment would be to break the doorbell cover so it had to be replaced. By the way, when I say doorbell cover, I don't mean the thing on the outside of the house that you press. The thing I spray-painted goes over the actual chimes. It is some 70s faux-Colonial thing, but it is not faux-ugly. It is real ugly.

Maybe my accomplishment of the day should be riding my bike over to the little vegetable stand to buy tomatoes and peppers. The tomatoes are tiny and sweet and all different varieties and colors...yellow, orange, red, and yum. They are so pretty I should take their picture and post it here. And then I will call Kari and whine until she helps me learn how to post photos. (Mom, its an intellligence test)

Happy Lovely Late Summer Everyone*
