This is a stone carving mounted in a frame. I found the whole ensemble at a thrift shop (can't you tell?). I have no idea what nationality she is supposed to be, but I really like the flower detail on the hem of her dress.

Blue flowers outside my door. I think I need to find something gritty to take pictures of, like trash or something. Flowers are just too easy.
A stack of old books that I love, not necessarily for their words but for their looks.
Stargazer lily taken with my new 18mm - 55mm lens. I should really show off a wider angle shot, but this one was just so pretty.
I painted the top of my desk gold with Ralp Lauren Regent Metallics, which turned out wonderfully and can be seen under these little trays I bought from a thrift shop to protect the surface.
This is one of my favorite people ever, Brenda. She is currently doing her post-doc at Harvard. She works on cell signalling and this is her explaining her work. Doesn't she just look like she's a scientist? Did I mention that she's uber smart and works at Harvard? (She's going to kill me.)
You know when you get all poncey on yourself and buy something that makes you seem more cultured than you are? These are my handmade leather bound books for keeping notes on all the amazing bottles of wine I come across so I can become a renown wine connoisseur. I've had them for over three years now. They're blank.
My new to me $19 reading chair for my office.
We're all getting a bit soppy with Valentine's Day around the corner.
Very new, very economically crippling tires. And these are far, far from the top of the line.
Hanging out being green.
My new home office! Soooo excited.
New roses! I was so inspired I bought two more bushes, a red and a lavender. When they bud I'll post more pictures. I'm pretty sure that was what Confucius said: "You can never have too many rose photos." No?
