Chandelier Made of 14,000 Tampons

Did that blog title get your attention? It certainly got mine. I've lived my whole life and never once thought about making anything out of tampons. Certainly not a massive chandelier. It's in a gallery in Lisbon.

Druids Celebrate Spring Equinox At Stonehenge

"The sun rises over Stonehenge as druids celebrate the Spring Equinox at Stonehenge near Amesbury, Wiltshire, England. Several hundred druids and pagans were granted special access to the ancient monument to mark the date in the calender when the length of the day and the night are equal (this happens twice a year, at Spring and Autumn Equinox). To the druids Spring Equinox celebrates the renewed life of the Earth that comes with spring and attribute the changes that are going on in the world to an increase in the powers of their God and Goddess."

Happy First Day of Spring everyone!

The Fork Ran Away With The Spoon

That doesn't sound right, the fork running away with the spoon. I guess this photo is a contemporary version of the nursery rhyme Hey, Diddle Diddle ending with "and the dish ran away with the spoon."

Goodnight. Sleep Tight.

I can hardly wait to jump in my clean bed with all the line dried linens. I even washed my down comforter today. I have all white on my bed too. Goodnight. Sleep tight. See you in the morning. It was such a beautiful day. Just got back from eating Mexican food with a friend. Yum.
