photo booth friday - fishies.

Great picture, questionable talent. Only one of four individuals seen in this photo is capable of getting it right when the "make a fishy face" command is called out.

And it ain't me.

And I called it out.

(stop laughing)

I always link to Andrea of hulaseventy on photobooth Friday because pbf is her very brilliant inspiration. Sometimes I thank her a bit for getting it started but haven't yet waxed poetic about her way of seeing life and her blog. I must say that beyond her stellar talent (and I mean stellar) at taking a photo, she has the loveliest way with words. She has such a 'real' yet evocative way of telling a tale and makes you feel first person engaged in her process. I look forward to each of her posts and then relish them as little gems.

There is much talk amongst bloggers about how the interconnectedness, or community if you wish, of blogging is the silver lining to the www.
I wholeheartedly agree.
My friendship with Andrea is proof for me. A woman who I would not have met otherwise, whom I have never been in the same room with, but I hope to know forever. I am lucky to have become friends with her and suggest you take the time to go visit her. And take a lovely little walk through her world.


The last days of Summer have arrived...best and beautiful weekend to you all.

oh girl. I'm so honored, so humbled by your kind words, truly. when I think about this enormous blog world and how we find each other... it sort of freaks me out (but in a good way). I can honestly say that the feeling is so very very mutual. remember that first email you sent me? you are amazing and I have no doubt our paths will cross (hopefully sooner rather than later). thank you, thank you, thank you for your words. xo

(by the way, love the photobooth snap--OF COURSE. I myself have never been able to do the 'fish face' but my mom is the master. she's got mad skills when it comes to the fish face. sadly, I didn't inherit that trait.)
