So, after having my breadmaker for just over a year, I've decided to take the plunge. Following the recipe on the KingArthurFlour website, I have mixed together sugar, water, yeast and whole-wheat flour(of course) in the hopes of catching ''wild'' yeasts and creating my very own sourdough starter. This is supposed to take from 2 to 5 days and if I take care of it properly, it should last for a long time. In fact, the one King Arthurs sells is over 240 years old!

So, so far so good...it's beginning to bubble....

Maybe if it actually works, I'll have some kind of contest to name my starter :)

Ooh, could i sell it on etsy too? I wonder.

Art Card has landed in an etsy treasury! Here's the link:

I just finished reading The One Hundred by Nina Garcia and proud to report that I already own most of the pieces she suggested including a vintage mink and a valid passport.

I don't care for most of her boot suggestions....I don't really need nor want to wear cowboy boots, wellingtoon boots, or ankle boots, thank you very much.

However, I have come to realize I am remiss in not owning of any of the following items and will get to work on acquiring as soon as the purse allows. Of course, if there are any generous benefactors reading my blog, feel free to donate to the cause!




Repetto Ballet Flats














Rayban Aviators and Wayfarers











Belts
Camel Coat
Brooches ( I have three...so I definitely could use some more)
White Cable Knit Sweater
Black Cashmere Sweater
Charm Bracelet
Gentleman's Hat : Fedora or Tilby (so mad my dad threw his out!)










An investment bag, so called because it will cost several weeks salary: chanel 2.55, LV Speedy, the Jackie O, or the Birkin(which I like the best, followed by the speedy)










Custom-made Vans
Fur Stole
Hermes Scarves
