Rambling Randomness

1. Last night Jon and I made a little trip to Ikea. I could literally spend hours in this store looking at everything. I could also spend a lot of money in this store, but I've been VERY good! Last night we went in search of fabric. There's actually a really good selection there and I was very impressed. I just bought a couple of practice pieces to play with until I get back into the hang of sewing again.

Here's what I found:

Now I can finally use the new sewing machine Jon got for me ;)
Perfect for a rainy day project!
(We have a lot of rainy days over here.)

2. Last night we also watched Gone Baby Gone.

It was a GREAT movie! I highly recommend it. I love Casey Affleck and Morgan Freeman, both. And any action movie based in Boston you bet I'll be buying.

Plot on IMDB:

"Two Boston area detectives investigate a little girl's kidnapping, which ultimately turns into a crisis both professionally and personally."

3. Question:

I'm looking for a new perfume, but I am SOOO picky for some reason. I am not a flowery scent kinda wearin' girl. Do you guys have any suggestions for me???

4. And Sadly, my big furry visitor Sampson left on Sunday! I was sad to see him go and actually got a little teary eyed when he left. BUT what made it better is I've got a new buddy hanging out with me during the days. His name is Elliot: isn't he a doll???

He is also a great dog like Sampson.
Ellie is so sweet, he loves cuddling.

He's either in my lap or at his other favorite spot on top of the couch.
It's so fun having him around!

I'm off to run errands! Hope you all have a happy Wednesday!
