EvY at HomE

It's a pretty place to take a shower and the only room in the house where you can take a bath. Mostly the bathers have been Angie and Lyla though... Hope that you get to spend the weekend in the tub, surrounded by bubbles and drinking champagne.

Over the weekend I was a little bit sick and was thinking about all the stuff we do to try to make ourselves feel better. The drugs. The voodoo medicine. The Golden Girls. I heard someone recently when offered medicine straight up refusing saying "Well I figure it's my body doing something to get rid of the sickness, why alter it?" The only drug I don't mind taking is aspirin for the headaches but otherwise I'm not into drugs unless I am working and need them to make it throughout the day like Mucinex but I ain't happy about it. I think it's the hippie in me. This weekend I had a lot of vitamin c, zinc, elderberry syrup, and immunity tea. Oh and I didn't go out and slept a LOT. And I took a bath with peppermint and eucalyptus and epson salt. I felt a lot better by Sunday night. I dunno if all that helped or my super immune system that never lets me down. So what do you guys do?

A new feature (which I will no doubt abandon within say, two months) where I will highlight a particular  website I could drop some serious moolah on if Matt weren't watching our credit card bill. The website must be of a particular interest to myself that may not be of interest to the general public and therefore the general public must be made aware of it: THE LAUNDRES Laundry supplies and cleaning stuff. All in pretty packages. It's my bloggy and I'll shop if I want to.

I bought a vexed mirror at West Elm and added it to the office wall. Lot of shapes.  Maybe add a little ledge too?

AGH! It's so yellow. I think I underestimated Target's ability to produce a yellow that wasn't attacking your eyes with a wild ferret. Oh I know that side table has got to go and I have a $20 solution in mind but I haven't had a chance to go to Ikea yet. I was wondering if maybe it was the bright pink pillows that were making the couch look so ferrett attacking/jarring so I tried a few pillow combos. Number 4 was the temporary winner.  I spent gift card money on the cover and it's staying since the more permanent solution (custom cover) is more expensive and I don't want to do it until I move to the next house to see what a green wall looks like with the sofa. Have a good weekend. Please stay safe and rodent free.

Well the tea tray in the office went bonkers. Okay I went bonkers and upped the ante on the tea tray.  This is what it consists of now. Sheesh. I mentioned not minding spending money on good ingredients and thanks to a gift card from Am, I did just that. I knew that all I wanted from Williams-Sonoma was food items so I went with some legit tea. Fortnum & Mason who like, cater to the QUEEN of England. Cheerio and all that crap.
