A YUMMY LUNCH, A TELEPHONE, AND A BUNCHA "E"'S!!!!

today, greta picked me up from work and we headed over to the best little restaurant in ocean springs called the bayview gourmet. i love the whole atmosphere of this place. all their stuff is pretty much good for ya (veggie burgers, salads, fish, sweet potato fries) and so friggin good.

i had this delish nut crusted grouper over a bed of salad greens, blk. olives, tomatoes, red onions, and a lemon vinegarette dressing.

oh to die for.

on the way back from lunch, we were chatting away and were behind a big ol dump truck. then we noticed something hanging from the back.



a telephone was dangling from the back of the truck. me and greta were rolling.

greta had also completed my part of our intial swap (for those of you clueless about this, i decided to pop greta's swapping cherry by coming up with our first swap. it was an initial swap. meaning, that i bought greta things that had a "g" on it and she got me "e" things..sound like fun? it was) and i dug into the bag the minute i hit my office.


a handmade bookmark which is currently residing on my desk at work.


look at all this "e" lovliness!!! the best thing is that "e" cookie cutter. can't wait to make some cookies with that.

so this then got me thinking. what's our next swap going to be. i thought of a couple of things and thought "why not make this a once a month thing?". i think of six themes, she thinks of six, we have a month to do each one and voila!!

a swappy year.

i already have my six picked out, so as soon as greta gets hers figured out, i'll post a lil more details on this :)

and thanks for all the "hope tomorrow is a better day for ya" comments.

i have just been in a complete state of blah and would love a one or two day vacation with just me. an opportunity to clear my end and get some much needed rest.
