I ate...

...the last of my licorice from Amsterdam.



I love this stuff. I brought back several bags in my luggage and have been diligently rationing them out over the last 4+ months. Well, yesterday, the last drop in the last bag was consumed. I now need to go on a hunt for more. And if anyone ever goes to Amsterdam and wonders what to buy me? You now have your answer. :)

I like...

...this house. Bet you won't guess where this home is located.






If you guessed Croatia, then you are correct. The war has left their landscape a blank page with which to write on. And what beautiful writing it is. This home is designed by the firm 3LHD Architects. Don't worry, you don't have to know Croatian as the site is in English.

I have...

...these Weck jars!!!!! I was walking home on Saturday after watching Coraline when I decided to pop into the always cool store Canoe. Wouldn't you know it that less than I minute after I stepped in, I saw them. They were so lovely there in 4 sizes. Of course I had to buy a couple in 3 of the sizes. The bonus...I had found a visa gift card a few weeks ago and so I didn't have to spend any of MY money to buy them!

Happy Up Here

Happy Up Here from Röyksopp on Vimeo.

This video makes me happy. Given the stress of work right now, it offers a nice few minutes of calm. While I don't think I have just listened to their music, I do often find myself watching Röyksopp's videos over and over again. They are just the right amount of quirky and fun. Apparently the Norwegian duo is coming out with another album later this year. You know what that means...more videos!!!
