225: me and mimi and the men

Good morning, loves!

Back to the Boston Handmade Marketplace:

You know how I was looking forward to seeing Mimi's men!

 And Mimi, of course.

Oh my god, they are so cool! 

I have an unnatural love for these guys:

I am feeling , uh, a little unphotogenic lately, so pretend you don't notice the my dark circles and wacky hair. And giant fivehead. But do feel free to notice my cute headband.

The detail on the faces is incredible, as is the amount of personality they each have.

Arrrrrr:

You can't see it in that photo above, but there is a little skull and crossbones on his hat.

It was neat to meet Mimi. We hope to get together soon so we can actually talk and get to know each other a bit. It was hard to focus with so much going on!

So, it was my birthday on the fifth, Saturday. Very low key.  Yard sales. Pizza and sangria.

But first, in the morning, coffee and this:

My new boyfriend looks good in pink.

Awww! Happy happy chickadee! Ain't it great to get another year?

Don't worry about black circles you don't have them. Now me, I have enough luggage under mine to go to Europe for the summer. HUGS!!

Happy Birthday! He is a charmer. Those dolls are an ingeniuos use of toile. His black and white does look good with all that pink.

You are WAY too hard on yourself--I think you are downright adorable in a not weird-girl-on-girl way! ;->

Love your new guy...I hope your hubby doesn't mind too much. Does the new guy have a name?
Happy birthday! You look fabulous! At least you have a forehead--if my hairline keeps sprouting further down, it'll soon join my eyebrows! ;)

Happy Birthday! It's good to see a picture of you - we don't see the same image as you - your own worst critic. . . Have a great rest of the week :)
