It's really rainy here still.This photo was from a few weeks ago at the beach when we had a few days of sun. This is a crazy-house sprinkler run. The goal is to run around the beach house, through the sprinkler, and scream.
I feel like we will never have summer here, so I am looking at these beach photos to remind myself we will. Our May was the third wettest in the history of Oregon.
Anyhoo, some links and important items:
- Thanks for all the pencil sharpener info! I was oddly riveted by this video on how to sharpen a pencil. Who knew!?
- I am thrilled to be attending Miss Emily Martin's art opening this Friday, here in Portland, at Land. You can see some of the amazing paintings over at Inside A Black Apple. I have had rumors of a cotton candy machine at the opening, Friday, June 4th at 6:00pm. Excitement!
- The Tie One On gallery is almost up. The Alice aprons are so good. I think it will be ready by this weekend. In the mean time, you can check out the newest theme.
- There is a wonderful post about what the heck you would use double sewing machine needles for over at the Bolt Blog written by the super knowledgeable Sally Hess. Also, the classes at Modern Domestic look very good, perfect for summer fun. I sure wish there had been a cloth diaper/covers class in town when I had my babes. (Thanks for these tips, Melissa.)
- We saw Exit Through the Gift Shop and it was very entertaining. So funny and thought provoking—really a hoot. Here's a review about it, although it's not overly positive, it gives you a good sense of what it's about. If you are a fan of Banksy's work, you have probably already seen it.
