The lovely and talented Stacey of
Design Addict Mom (go read it and get your design fix on) recently bestowed
this happy little award on my little blog.
And since there can never be enough happy in the world,
here's some things that make me jubilant:
Christmas
(some ornaments from my tree)
sprinkles
(I'm having this crazy love affair with them right now. I'm not joking when I say I go through a little bottle in a week.)
wood grain
this song
nail polish
(duh.)
old buildings
peppermint
this spot
yarn
fruity drinks on vacation
(ignore the massive plate of nachos in the foreground....)
And now I'd like to pass this onto these lovely bloggers:
List the things that make you happy, and be sure to pass the happy onto others.

The continuing saga of our trip to the Puyallup Fair.
Now, with more aminals.
Inside one of the competition barns. The breeders and farmers take a lot of pride in showing off their aminals.
So proud.
This is the craziest looking bird ever.
That's not a wig.
I love speckledy chickens.
You're the most beautiful one of all.
Can you tell this little sheep has 4 (four. Four. F-O-U-R.) antlers? He's called a Jacob sheep, and he's NEAT!
The hubbers made a new friend!
I feel like there's something wrong with these eggs...
And now, for your viewing pleasure....
... a cheeseburger made out of vegetables.
{ i'd eat that burger. wouldn't you? }
ps - the { treasury trove } will return next week, but in the meantime check out my latest ode to autumn
here.

On Saturday, the hubbers and I fought massive traffic jams and headed to
The Puyallup Fair. It's one of the top 10 largest fairs in the world, so it's quite the spectacle really. We visited the barns, ate the beloved
Krusty Pups and wandered around the brighly lit rides.
The fair always looks better at night...
....doncha think?
ps - We waited about 30 minutes in line for these ( because they are the most delicious
scones of all time).
Check back tomorrow, where I'll share some more of our Fair adventure...

A few weeks ago, the hubbers and I went on an
Underground Seattle tour with some friends from out of town. We'd never done it before, and after a lengthy stop at
Elysian Fields Brewery, it seemed like a good idea....
The tour takes you beneath Pioneer Square, the original center of the city.
You navigate between weird open spaces....
...and narrow corridors.
I'm a huge fan of spooky, broken down spaces, so I found it quite interesting.
( This is a terrible photo, but I love these old lobby benches. )
And now, without any further ado........
Thank you all for participating in my Mystery Box of Awesome giveaway!
Yaaay, Diana! You can
email me your shipping info, and your box of awesome will be on it's way!

On Saturday the hubbers and I headed to Town Hall in Seattle to see The Airborne Toxic Event. It was pouring rain as we waited outside for the show to begin, but I said it once and I'll say it again:
Worth. It.
View from the second row!
Mikel phoning Noah (the MIA bass player) from the stage.
"Seattle is calling you. Everyone's waiting. No, I can't talk now...So. How's your mother?...."
The triumphant arrival of Noah.
Slappin' da bass.
The tiny venue was awesome. We guesstimated there were like 200ish people.
"Let's pretend this is a rock show!"
I can't pretend to know a lot about music, but if you ever have the opportunity to go see this band - DO IT. They put on a spectacular show (Johnny Cash covers, say wha!), and it's apparent they still love what they do.
All in all:
best. show. ever.
{ what was your favorite concert? }
psssssst! - don't forget to enter my
giveaway!
