Hey: check out what I found this weekend.
Yes, that is my a** in $160.00 jeans. Oh Yaaaa. Only $3.50 at what us locals call Old Folks Thrift Store. Nevermind why we call it that. Just don't confuse it with New Thrift, Mr. Munchkins or Stinky's. Anyhoo: check it out: I never thought I would own 7 for All Mankind jeans. (Nor was I really all that upset about not owning them, if you catch my dirft. I mean, really. Who needs to spend that much on jeans? I'm lost on the point totally. But, hey. Put those pricey jeans in my face for $3.50 and I'll be super happy to brag about wearing them.)
Then yesterday I went yard-sailing with my favorite thrifting buddy (sans kids!). She picked me up at 8 a.m. sharp. Unfortunately, all the yard sales we hit really left a lot to be desired. That is, until I took my chances with an Italian espresso maker (and also a milk frother. )
Oh. My. Goodness. I will never use a regular coffee maker again. Never. Never. Never. I AM SO HIGH ON CAFFEINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Plus it looks so rad in my kitchen. I feel so Italian. Even the guy at the yard sale told me it is "way Italian" of me to buy this coffee maker. Wow. You just never know what amazing things can happen to one girl in one weekend. Me: an Italian coffee drinking person in $160 jeans. Holy. Freaking. Moley.
And wait, that's not all. We found a hummingbird in our living room. (Our 5-year-old said she saw a very big bug and we should come look.) We thought she might die, she had been trying to get out the glass window for sometime. She rested in my shirt and looked at me for a good long while. She didn't move. Her tiny black eyes just blinking. (I think she knew I was wearing $160 jeans. She just had that look in her eye.) Then just as we were going to put her in a little open-topped box so she could rest and hopefully regain her stregnth, she suddenly flew away like lightning to the tallest tree around.
Recap: Wearer of Expensive Jeans. Italian Coffee Drinker. Hummingbird Saver. Can you improve on that? Perhaps not. Ciao.
