...Birthday Week...More presents...and a funny story...

...from my Birthday lunch with Amy...

...a few good reads...I've always wanted to learn to fold fancy napkins...haven't you?...

...from Scout and Our Girl...who'd been antiquing recently...and it's my current centerpiece...

...a new pair of white tennies from the Man...when I was little ...the new pair of flip flops and white tennies meant the beginning of summer...Mom used to polish them with white shoe polish to keep them white...

...we stopped at our local chocolatier the evening we went out for dinner...

...so these dark chocolate fleur de lis are from the Man...

...and another dear friend sent me a card...which was not included in the mantel photo...and some more chocolate...

...guess which one I broke into first...

...of course...it was the 'extremely dark' one...these stevia sweetened vegan chocolates are delicious...

...ok...now for the funny story...

...earlier in the week...the Man had given me a small present...which I opened right away...and it was this cute top...

...and we had a lunch date...so I put it on...

...it has pockets...which I love...I don't understand why all clothes don't have pockets...and a cute little criss cross on the back...

...so...I know you're wondering what was funny about that...

...well I went over to the Church office dressed like this to pick up the Man for our lunch date...

...and he said...Oh...that's supposed to be a DRESS...hahahaha...

...now I do think it's kinda sweet that the Man still thinks I'm young enough and slim enough to wear this TOP as a dress...but I won't be venturing out into public without something on underneath...

~Have a lovely day!
