five things, october 21st edition

1. I think I still have a lot to learn about writing and photography and who I want to be when I grow up.
2. I think I'm feeling very lucky these days.
3. I'm thinking it's time again for chicken and waffles.
4. I think I need a makeover, a glamour consultant and a photographer...STAT.
5. I think I really need to give my living room some love. Right now, except for my pink wall, I am not feeling it. I walk through it quickly to get to the back of the house, and I want it to be a room we want to spend time in again. I need furniture, but I'm open to suggestions. And donations. But only of gorgeous stuff.

P.S. Come and try the new line of teas that they're featuring at Simply Selma's!

That picture (those pictures?) are great, as was yesterday's. And I think you are beautiful just the way you are.

Your living room is my favorite part of your house. Especially when you got a fire going.m.

[Lauren]

Mark, It usually is for me too. But with a ripped leather sofa and beat-up chairs (as well as the demolished ottoman from that chair we bought from Fern, remember that?), right now it just feels tired and unappealing. We've had some ideas, but we just need to pull the trigger (and the $$) on them. And make some curtains. And paint the dentil molding. And... And... And...

I love the pink wall! I'd love to be able to paint something in my house that colour.

Love this shot.. The use of colour is beautiful and your composition wonderful.. Enjoy the teas. Carla

Kathryn, I am SO glad we painted that wall pink! It is not overwhelmingly girlie at all (my husband and so gave it a total thumbs up), and in the evening the room has a wonderful pale glow. I love it.

[Lauren]

Oh carla, *blushing* now. Thank you so much...just what I needed to hear! Hope you had a happy birthday!

Awesome list... It feels awfully similar to mine!& gorgeous colour combination in your shot. xxx

[Lauren]

Hi Leah! My list can feel similar from week to week (whine, whine whine)! xo

[Michelle]

Hehe I think all of those apply to me too. Except I've never had chicken and waffles. Thanks for coming by from BYW and stopping by my blog. :-)

[Lauren]

Hi Michelle! I'll post my recipe when we've had dinner this week, but I think it may already be on here somewhere. We love us some chicken and waffles!
