edging closer to my 26th birthday, retail therapy helps numb the fear of getting old...just a little

with warm birthday wishes from my family, I bought myself:

1. Miss Dahl's Voluptuous Delights: Recipes for Every Season, Mood, and Appetite
(the colorful and whimsical pictures and delicious recipes sold me)

2. summery nailpolish
( in efforts to slow down and relax)

3. black and gray ribbons for my hair

4. flowy skirt for the summer nights in Seattle.
