You can see them at the Fest: Amos Lee "Supply and Demand"


......................................................................................................
We like to stash a few Spicy Natchitoches Meat Pies in our pockets, so that we always have food on demand when hunger strikes in the middle of a great set.

A chattering bird builds no nest.

Please pardon my absenteeism this week.  On the homefront: we are in full swing on feathering our nest....its musical furniture time.  I am surrounded by stacks and stacks of books, computer equipment, DVDs, and VHS tapes [these are headed straight to Goodwill].  On the workfront: we are moving a most wonderful client in this week, so there are punch-lists to be made, furniture to be received, linens to be purchased.  It's a wonderful week with so much going on!

Happy Weekend

Hope you have a fun-filled, creative, productive, relaxing weekend! Hopefully by the end of the weekend I will have settled on what to give up for lent.  
Love this fragrance bar at Bond No. 9 in New York, using a vintage brass offering table and quite a colorful assortment of perfume bottles. [Please pardon the grainy iPhone image.]

You can see them at the Fest: Michael Franti and Spearhead "Sound of Sunshine"

As our days are getting longer, I really think that I can hear the Sound of Sunshine.  What a glorious time of year!

For a taste of sunshine, try a Mango Freeze from the lovely folks at WWOZ.

Stenciled Happy Thoughts

Completely enamored with Candy Chang's public art in New Orleans. With the installation Before I Die, she turned an abandoned property into a place for a community to display their desires using chalkboard paint.  She also tags a few of her favorite haunts with spray chalk in It's Good to be Here.  It's lovely to see happy thoughts plastered everywhere.

Happy Mardi Gras!

"Let pleasure be the rule, day and night" -Rex 2011
Mardi Gras should be a national holiday.

Laissez les bons temps rouler

Heading out the door for the weekend.
Sorry I haven't been around here much this week...our internet was on the fritz.  Let's catch up next week!  Have a great weekend.

I need a Muses

Someday, when I live in New Orleans again, I will be a member of this Krewe.  How much fun could you have decorating, bedazzling, and feathering shoes as Mardi Gras Throws?!?!  
Right now as I should be thinking about daycare and preschool waiting list....all I can think of is getting on the Muses waiting list.  Happy Tuesday....one week until the Fat one!
