i'm baaaaaack

I noticed my blog-mate decided to skip the postings. That's cool. I have been thinking of buying one of Ryan Berkley's animal prints, I still haven't decided which one.

We are listening to the ABBA Number Ones CD this morning, I saw Mama Mia! and recommend it, along with The Dark Knight and Pineapple Express.

We stopped by The Red Balloon Company last night and learned about Yoda, the four eared cat!

Have a great weekend!

The best gift basket ever! Canaan Fair Trade has the most delicious olive oil in the world, as far as we are concerned and Topher just received the Fair Trade Basket for his birthday, awesome!

I have the I Am Not A Paper Cup mug and I love it. (Available at the Lower Queen Anne Metropolitan Market.)
Velocity Art and Design carries the We Are Happy To Serve You mug.
The difference would be the lid, I guess. Ceramic travel mugs taste better!

Treehouse Blend is the only coffee we have been buying for home since we discovered it. We drink coffee hot in the morning and put in the fridge for later, some coffee does not retain a drinkability once chilled. The Treehouse Blend is seriously yummy, this summer I am putting almost the whole pot away solo. We get ours at Icebox, our awesome neighborhood grocery and deli!

Topher's mom bought us some cute oilcloth to use for a new tablecloth from Nancy's Sewing Basket, a "real" fabric store on the top of Queen Anne.
