I saw these images on Design*Sponge and I was, pun unintended, blown away. 
I don’t know why, but seeing these pictures I can totally imagine this process being virtually silent, and beautiful. The kind of beautiful that makes you believe in wonders and natural peace on earth.

One of my closest friends has a birthday today. Since he has own online deal going, I’m not going to spoil it by putting up embarrassing pictures of him eating 3 lbs of gummi bears (although if any of his friends have embarrassing pictures they want to give me…)
But I wanted to say Happy Birthday, and here’s some other pretty awesome people who share your special day.
clockwise from top right: Bootsy Collins, Cary Elwes, Mahalia Jackson and Seth McFarlane. Yeah, you know, all the best!
I found out about Pierre Hebert in March and I have no idea why I didn’t post the story then. These photos, knowing that they came from a seven year old, fascinate me. I can’t wait until all the little kids around me grow old enough to handle a camera and we can go on photowalks together.
Well, this week has been full of ups and downs. At work, I have been doing a project not related to my actual job at all and it was supposed to be over last week. Wishful thinking. I feel really crummy and uncreative when I feel like I am chained and only allowed to do this one thing. So hopefully today is the absolute last day and I can get back to my real job. If I can remember what that is.
But here’s the real week wrap up:
-I GOT MY CAMERA! I think the eBay seller knew I was checking the tracking info every hour for a week because he sent it at the very last possible moment. Blerg. But I got it, I cleaned it, I loaded film and I have only taken one picture but I. Am. In. LOVE.
The Beau just might murder me for putting his photo up here. Or make me take it down.
-I totally forgot that it was Space Week! Luckily I wrote about it last year, so you can read here.
-I won some coffee straight from New Orleans and it has chicory in it and now I want a garden full of chicory. Plus, it’s such a fun word to say.
Not pictured:
-It dipped way down into the 70s here in the valley, so I got to wear my amazing green pants that I will probably be wearing a little too much this fall! I’m not calling it fall yet, because it’s supposed to get back into the upper 90s next week, but fingers crossed that’s a fluke. Hello pants + tights!
-I found a recipe for apple cinnamon roll cupcakes that might stop my heart, and I am slowly putting together a rad Halloween costume, hehe.
Happy one-year anniversary, Tortilla Tuesday feature. You are the most popular thing on my blog, and I am totally okay with that. 
I didn’t write a week in review last week, because there wasn’t a whole lot to list. So maybe combining two weeks will be pure magic!
Row 1: Last week – took some photos of a tea party, ate some cake at said tea party, hung out on the steps of my grandma’s kickass house with this boot and watched the sun set.
Row 2: Tried to stay out of the heat by doing this. Yes, that is my Netflix recently watched list. That is all Futurama. To be fair, I was cleaning the house while watching them. I drank some very good beer… no really though, that beer was heavenly. Like ambrosia. I went to a baby’s first birthday. Ah, to be young and have a special cake all to yourself…
Row 3: Went disc golfing and didn’t bring my camera. The boys were starting to make fun of me for using my camera as a place marker. This was the only pic I took, and only because those roots looked like a hand! Made some mason jar 4th of July cakes with my sister (mine’s a little empty because I forgot to tell The Beau I was going to take pictures before he dug in!) and I got in the zone and wrote some letters. I love when I get into my Zone!
Have a great long weekend!
