And so another week begins with total randomness

I apologize in advance for this post being all over the place. This is pretty much just a summary of everything interesting I came across this weekend as well as a couple of things I had forgotten to post about along the way.

I hope all of you had wonderful weekends! Mine was spent not doing very much. Saturday night Mr. B and I did some running around town and stopped off at Target before heading to a friend's house. As we passed by the jewelry counter, I noticed all of these really cute pieces that I hadn't seen before. When I spotted this ring, designed by Anna Sheffield for Target, I knew I had to have it. I love cuckoo clocks even though I don't have an actual one yet. So I thought that a little one for my hand would be a good start. They only come in a size 7 which is a little big even for my middle finger, but it's so cute, I'll make it work. It's very detailed! A little steep at $30 for something from Target but it is sterling.

I suppose I was channeling my German heritage because also while at Target, I picked up a bottle of Relax Riesling wine for going over to our friend's house to chill by their pool. I actually prefer Vinho Verde, but Riesling is a close second.



Have any of you see this movie? If not, you really should. The whole movie is on Youtube in 10 parts so you really have no excuse for not watching it other than maybe having a slow internet connection. This is just a clip of the movie as the videos that show the whole movie have had the embedding disabled, but just do a search for "If It's Tuesday, This Must Be Belgium" and you'll find it. Young Ian McShane is oh so dreamy! It's actually a really funny movie as well and one that I definitely need to get on DVD.



I also came across this darling clip when looking at Blue Bell Knoll. If you haven't checked out this blog by now you should, it really is the most wonderful blog. Anyway, when I came across this clip, I squealed with delight! I remember being a toddler and watching this on Sesame Street and being completely fascinated/at peace while watching this. I just know that this clip helped along with all would be Anthropologie lovers. It just has that feel, in my opinion.

Whew, well I think I've done enough rambling for now. I hope everyone has a glorious Monday!!

  4. At least your week started out with substance. My starts with madness. Love the Sesame Street vid. When I saw the link for Blue Bell Knoll it reminded me of the Cocteau Twins. Happy Monday, hon!
