Happy Boxing Day!

It was a white Christmas up north!

Fern

Pink english roses, cucumber sandwiches, phallic cacti and humming birds. Kitty-cat love, stuffing with apples and raisins. An unbreakable pride. Northern lakes and Swedish love affairs. Hilarious gossip and a deep bellied Lundstrom laugh. A "Ukrainian" garden. Patients, understanding and unconditional love. Deep secrets, boxes of photographs and mountains of books.

She would hug me so hard I could hear her teeth grinding.

Do you have the time?

I have been looking for a good clock. I need one for the kitchen. I'm sick of using my cell phone to check the time and honestly, pretty sick of my cell phone at all. I keep the ringer off more and more and called rogers to cancel my voice messaging service because I hate messages. I never checked them anyways. But! This is not about cell phones this is about clocks...real ones with hands and everything. Here are a few I've been admiring from afar.

From decoylab on Etsy.

This sweater clock appears in Anthropologie's winter catalogue.

I saw this cozy white clock on a Swedish design blog Fridas fina but I don't know where it's from because I still don't speak Swedish.
