TB is having a contest in which you send her a picture of the weirdest thing on display in your house. Photos must be received by midnight, August 13. I don’t think she says what the prize is – hopefully not the weirdest thing on display from her house! 😉
SRP update:
The Apostrophe Thief by Barbara Paul, 247 pages. I’m reading the Marian Larch (NYPD) mysteries totally out of order – it’s an older series and the library doesn’t have all of the books.
A Deadly Yarn by Maggie Sefton, 259 pages. The third mystery about Fort “Connor” (Colorado) CPA and new knitter Kelly Flynn and her friends is another light and speedy read.
As part of my ongoing series of unusually colored Minneapolis architecture, here’s a purple house/business that I missed in July…
…and a house of a different color – you definitely want to click on this picture to get a better look!
The Crafty Modster held her final Project Spectrum mix giveaway and I won; actually, everyone who entered won something! Look at all those PS neutrals:
I’m all set, aren’t I? Thread, embroidery floss, tasty chocolate, a very cool flower pin (with the button in the middle) that now graces my cube…
…the mix, of course…
…and a card for Chaos! (Interestingly, that’s similar to a favorite Chaos pose that I haven’t managed to get a picture of.) Thank you so much, Anjo!
Speaking of Chaos…
“Good grief, there are other vegetables besides the Evil Zucchini Monster?! That’s just not right.”
Way cool Project Spectrum prize! And how do I narrow down weirdest thing on display in my house? Yikes. My daughter laughed long and loud at Chaos’s zucchini antics.
I really need to take and send you a picture of the purple gingerbread house…
I’d like to see what Chaos thinks of an eggplant :o)
And your pictures really want to make me come visit the Minneapple. It looks like such a hip, cool city. Of course you know I can only come in the summertime though.
Also thanks for the link to my “weird” contest. I haven’t announced the prize yet, I might be picking it up this weekend when we visit the Florida Keys there is plenty of weird stuff down there.
Too funny – that Chaos can sure give a look!
Love all the cool pictures!
Poor Chaos, is he worried you’re going to make him into a vegetarian???
Tuna! Give that boy some Tuna!
(((hugs)))
That is a fun neutrals set! Of course you have a live in neutral cool cat!
I can’t get over how my cat, Wiji looks like an overweight, lazier Chaos. She’s even got that bit of white on her chest.
What a wonderfully creative package!!
How fun!
Poor little Chaos…little dude…
Love those colourful houses/buildings! There are some funky ones in my neighbourhood, I’m gonna have to snap a few pics, maybe in the fall when the leaves start changing.
Every single time you post a pic of things Minneapolis it makes me want to visit the city more. Looks like such a cool place.
Ha! I was going to harass you if you didn’t include that house on Penn! Have you ever seen the woman who lives there?
What a wonderful package. I lol at Choas with the zucchini. Love all the pics.
these houses you find are great..what a tourist attraction for the aimless driver
Ooo, those are great neutrals! I was just lamenting last week that I had no black and white fat quarters for a SIP bag or purse. I love the cover on the mix CD too! What fun!
ahhhh how funky is that house!!!! That is ridiculously cool!
lol awww poor Chaos, attack of the killer vegetables!
Beware the artichoke.
Great post, Chris! Love your new banner with the eye!
Chaos Chaos Chaos. His life is so horrible. Why do you hate him??? Grin.
I need to visit Minneapolis.
ooh. you got different stuff from anjo.
well kind of.
Love the minneapolis architecture.
Look there is a UFO (sneaks off with Hershey Sticks)… Wow! You are so lucky – and the colour is perfect for you!
That is some house!
I can see myself living in a funky multi-coloured house like that.
Isn’t Anjo amazing? I can’t believe how great these packages are!
That Chaos is cracking me up – how old is he anyway, he certainly has a lot of kitty in him.
A mystery series featuring a CPA knitter? I’m all over it — just requested [all?]4 of that author’s books from my library.
That house is on Penn a block or two south of 50th, right? The owner has had a number of *design themes* over the years — there was one, or maybe it was a billboard in the yard, that featured lots of words. Not my house, thanks, but always interesting.
I can tell, Chaos is just not into vegetables. 🙂 Those colorful Minnesota houses are great. What a creative package of Project Spectrum goodies Anjo sent, complete with chocolate!
ROTFL! Chaos does look a bit put out. Root out one enemy and another one takes its place……
And wow. That 2nd house is something else.
Oh, and I think I have all the Barbara Paul books so if you’re missing any particular one(s) let me know and I’ll ship them off to you.
You must have been born under a lucky star, you seem to win all the contests. Ok, not all, but a lot. Congrats, very cool prize.
Now THAT is a very odd house! Unusual, to say the least. 🙂
No Chaos, there are no other vegetables:) At least it’s too small to actually *eat* you!
