my week in objects (mostly).

June 22, 2012

five little things that made my week.

1. ice.
ice {because without it, i would have been the one to melt}.

2. these new flips.
flips {because they were on sale. walking three miles in them  on day 2, ill-advised. i never learn}.

3. this parking spot.
parking {because it was so close to home and required no waiting around. new concrete sidewalk residue all over street and tire, somewhat more concerning}.

4. this tile.
tile {because it keeps the entrance to our building so cool. wanted to plop myself down on it all week long. yes, just like your family dog}.

5. frozen mango.
mango {because it’s slightly tastier than #1 and was the perfect thing to snack on while i wrote}.

what little something made your week?

other things:
going to the premiere of this incredible film tonight. you should, too.
really good scarves.
this is thought provoking. especially during a very hot week.
my words on riding the subway.

    hate the fact that it's so warm for you guys. wales has just completely forgotten that it's summer. i want to be eating ice, frozen mango and plopping myself down on that tiled floor. but instead i am eating soup, drinking tea and wearing like 3 jumpers.
    so jealous!

    i am a sucker for flip flops, as well.
    usually keeping a pair far too long, just to avoid the breaking in of something new.

    i just found your blog and am so impressed! i look forward to reading more… i love that your first pick on this post was ice, we have ice for the first time today in a year. and we are in heaven. last year we traveled in a vintage airstream all year so not much of anything, much less ice, and now we're renovating a 113 year old bungalow and tried going vintage fridge, no luck, and finally a new fridge with an ice maker… amazing how you miss the little things!! anyhoo, love what i've seen so far and wanted to say hello!
    xo, tiffany
