Registry!

Spent a brief period today checking out the plateware and china on Macys.com and BBB.  Then I ventured over to Pier1, where I fell in love with this chair.  Imagine this with a deep soft plum wall.

Bridesmaid Dresses

Bill Levkoff, Bari Jay...

My favorite of the moment is the Dessy Collection and their awesome mash up with Pantone.

There are some cool other ones.  I'll have to look for the After Six line at Irma's.

Personal Day

I am taking a personal day off from work tomorrow.  I am looking forward to just having a Day of Michelle... to leisurely sip my coffee, lounge around, maybe hit an art gallery or a movie.  I am looking around online making a list of possible things to do.  My aim is to have a relaxing break of a day, but still to feel like I took full advantage of it. 

Some of the best things I found online today:

Heartbreaking Photo:

"Walk Water Balls" on Lake Alster in Hamburg, Germany.

Coconut Chicken - sweet chile sauce

Washer and dryer in the closet. duh.

Chocolate chip and oreo brownies.  Talk about indulgence overload!
