via Instagram ift.tt/2zq6Vbk The niece and nephew are getting gifted a circa 1993 Barbie minivan with camping gear. I’m super appreciative of what good condition it’s in, including the box, so the kiddos won’t know I’m re-gifting 24 years later. 😹 . . . . . #christmas #barbie #kiddos #regift #vintage #vintagebarbie
I know I have already uploaded a file from Colby's session, but this one is my favorite from our time together, and is one strongly one of my favorite images ever.
I watched Kelly Brown's workshop on CreativeLIVE the other day (and caught a few hours of the following day's episode, where she went over post-production). I am so inspired for my two upcoming newborn shoots that are set to occur at the end of this month and the beginning of next month. You can read about my favorite moments on my blog in this post.

We never know how high we are
Till we are called to rise;
And then, if we are true to plan,
Our statures touch the skies—
The Heroism we recite
Would be a daily thing,
Did not ourselves the Cubits warp
For fear to be a King—
I know a lot of Americans would have turned their backson a bit brace in this condition. But where I live there are very few bit braces with rosewood handles, especially in odd sizes. This one is a Stanley SW era no 915 with a 8 inch sweep. It has seen a lot of use and some abuse, but despite that it is a still a very well functioning bit brace. The top handle sits tightly in place, there just a sliver of play in the chuck and the ratchet performs well in both directions. Whats more, this one was found in the old industrial village of Billnäs and is also stamped Fiskars, which is a neighbouring village very well known for their steel products. So I assume this brace was used in the Fiskars factory workshop.
Balans of Soho, established in we know not when describes itself as a "restaurant, bar and haven for the convivial". If I had to describe it in a word it would be 'funccentric' - which means both fun, eccentric, AND centred around fun (I just made this word up, is that OK?). Convivial indeed. With a substantial breakfast offering and a small but carefully decided menu, they seem to focus more on modern European food and drink (though there are a fewâ¦non European culinary curveballs thrown in). They also stay open 'til late, living up to that precedent set by their first outlet in Soho - a place where people seem to have a higher tolerance for drugs and less of a need for things like 'sleep' and 'water'.
Back to their Kensington outlet. Take a look at the decor. Yes, that's Captain Scarlett on the wall. Yes, that's a tree (albeit not a real tree - I actually asked) growing out of the floor. The atmosphere here lives up the branding - our waiter for the evening, David, was an English guy with a habit of singing as he worked. Yeah, actually singing. When was the last time you saw that in a restaurant?! In fact, I don't think I can recall the time I have seen such a happy waiter. It was infectious. A happy infection spreading through West London. The wait staff all wear checked shirts - which reminds me of one of the agencies I used to work at. Kinda weird but familiar. Like my family. I'm OK with it.
The manager Darko ("like Donny Darko!") who was also excellent - was also happy to recommend new and exciting alcoholic substances. Since I'd basically had every whisky and gin on their menu, he introduced me to olfactory orgasm that is Plantation's 20 year XO rum. It is THE best rum I have ever had (admittedly I'm not a rum expertâ¦.yet/ever), and at around only £45 a bottle (retail, not in Balans) - is a goddamn steal. This place is a bit silly and a lot of fun. Recommended!
The Ancient Greek aphorism "know thyself" or "gnothi seauton," is one of the Delphic maxims and was inscribed in the pronaos (forecourt) of the Temple of Apollo at Delphi according to the Greek writer Pausanias. It is sometimes attributed to having origins in Ancient Egypt and that is generally where conversation ends. However, the term is also known to ancient Sanskrit as "Atmanam Viddhi" and is a core concept of Yoga, the practice of self-realization delineated in a manner similar to our modern scientific method. I would like to trace the etymological roots of the Sanskrit, however, I have not the time at the moment. So it goes.

You know you're in trouble when the headline reads: "Amazon Worse Than Walmart." Amazon is known for its worldwide distribution network of just about everything. But increasingly, it's also become known for its ruthless treatment of workers and some of the worst working conditions anywhere. That goes for warehouses in the U.S., the U.K and Germany. www.cwa-union.org/news/entry/cwa_e-newsletter_feb_27_2014

You know by the Bueno Christmas billboard, of course!
There's a new one every year and you might have to go looking for it, it's not usually in the same place.
"♪ All I want for Christmas is my Red Chile, my Red Chile, my Red Chile...♫"
Now, I know how the term "horse play" came about.
The zebras at the zoo started biting, kicking, and acting in a way that looked like fighting! It attracted quite a crowd of guests, wondering what was going on!
I took photos for documentation, intending to give them to the keepers. But, a staff member told me this is normal behavior. The zebras weren't fighting at all, but playing, zebra-style. Ouch!
Here are a few of the photos I took. I didn't try to keep the fencing out of view, but I think the action is worth it.
You know how I said that I didn't have to go out of my way to look for a cat to adopt?
Well, today I met Simon and Floydd. They were in DESPERATE need of a home. The rescue that they came from is full to capacity. The only place they could find for these two was in a small cramped cage in the back of a small pet store. Twice somebody had filled out paperwork to adopt them, but then never showed up to take them.
Larry and I had been talking about finding a companion cat for Leo, since Bella and Alex are so much older and Stella and May are not interested in being his buddy.
Of course it was only my intention to adopt one cat, but Simon and Floydd had become pretty good buddies in that small cramped cage, even though they are not litter mates. I hated to separate them.
So meet the newest members of Cat Hill Farms.
Both have been to the vets and have a clean bill of health. They have had their first round of shots and both have been neutered, so there will be no heartbreaking ending to this story.
Simon here is about 6 months old. He was just neutered yesterday and is still taking it easy. He is very shy and I think it will take some time for him to feel comfortable, Floydd is the complete opposite.....very friendly, and not afraid of anything! I'm hoping that he'll help Simon here make an easy transition.
I don't know much about his garage but appeared to be open in 2008 although fuel sales finished here many years before.
2 pump islands still remain one of which is partly visible in this photo.
Recently lots of cars have appeared here for sale and some new signage has appeared, and a hand car wash next door.
