favorites friday...


i read crazy love by francis chan for the first time in november 2009. i read it again this summer, and now coach sal and i are teaching a class at our church this quarter, using this book. so i am reading it for the third time.
if you want to really fall in love with God, read it. if you want to rethink how you live for Him, read it. it will make you change the way you think and live each day. be ready.

favorites friday...




these owl canisters were made by my aunt dot for her sister margie (my meme) in 1985, when ceramics were the thing. i kept them when my meme died in 2000 and i just recently pulled them out. they are super-awesome! i love them. they are a little part of my history.
another favorite is right behind them, coach sal's aunt's yarn floral pictures. i know there is a name for the stitching, but i can't recall what it is. i got these from coach sal's grandmother when she moved into assisted living about a year ago and didn't have room for them. she knew that i loved them. another bit of family history...

thrifted thursday






found these six small bowls for $2.99. loved the flowers, of course! i am a die-hard girl for all that so-called tacky 60s/70s stuff! when i flipped them and saw the label, had to have them.

went home and googled...georges briard was born in the 30's and designed in the 50s-70s. very cool.
