There Is A Light...

I love me some Gibb Brothers.

They show up in many forms and many places, in some way or another.


It can look like this:



(To Love Somebody, written by Barry and Robin Gibb)




OR it can look like this:




My love is deep.






Happy Friday my friends!

The Starr King Rummage Sale



The line at 8:30 am.

Oh. I forgot to tell you about the Starr King Rummage Sale. 

No I did, I forgot.

It's not because I'm a selfish, aggressive, hoarder of a thrifter and I wasn't going to encourage any competition at this high-stakes rummage sale, how could you think that?

I saw this, and took this picture with my phone to send to my friend Jayne, who's looking for a dresser. I love this thing!

I was thinking of you Jayne. At least for a minute.

I didn't actually send it to her however because I saw this chair and jumped philanthropic ship, sprinting across the courtyard and yelling "THAT'S MY CHAIR". 

That may have actually happened.



Do you want to know how much it was? 

$5. 

Yeppers.

It will be making another appearance on this blog as I steal practice Morgan's method for restoring wood furniture, from my favorite blog The Brick House.

Oh, and the kilim pillows? $5 for both. What a bunch of idiots! Oh come on, I kid, I kid.


Put in on your calendar for next year. It benefits the Starr King Parent Child Workshop, which  is a really rad pre-school that  encourages both child and parent development.  It is located at 1525 1/2 Santa Barbara Street, and is part of the Unitarian Church. LOVE those Unitarians. They have a lady-reverend! Hallelujah.

Santa Barbara Sunday Afternoon



Hey! It's been a long time. Let's just pretend it didn't happen like the psychologically healthy people we truly are.

Compelled to get out of the house on Sunday after being sick for a few days,  coupled with the guilt of feeling like a  lazy, uncreative waste of life after watching the movie 180° South, I grabbed my camera and went for a walk around my neighborhood on Sunday afternoon.

This town is so beautiful.


I'm headed to St. Helena and Petaluma this weekend, and I'm taking my camera! See you soon.
