Friday Bits

Swimming
I love swimming in lakes. I know it freaks some people out, but swimming in the ocean is what scares me! I think lakes smell nice and taste nice, they're more refreshing. Sadly I haven't been swimming at all this summer:(

Oops, I said I was going to do a giveaway today didn't I? I know I'm terrible, but I realized it doesn't make any sense to do it on Friday, so I'll do it on Monday!

Here are some little things from this week

♥ I sat watching these lions for a long time after I discovered this website.

♥ I can soo relate to this. Also this.

♥ I'm determined to try some Hawaiian style shaved ice this weekend, apparently there are a few places in portland to get it

♥ I've been eating pedron peppers this week, I can't wait to get some more at the farmers market this weekend.

♥ I'm sure a lot of you have already seen this but: Cat wearing a shark costume rides a roomba

Have a great weekend whatever you're doing!

    That is a lovely drawing/painting!
    I love that introvert cartoon! When I get invited to parties I literally watch the clock and make myself stay for at least 20 minutes...and rarely more than 45 minutes. I can totally relate. I also now just do this so that nobody gives me a hard time:

    Oh yes, I can also relate to those links on being an introvert. Always have been, and always will be. Thank you for bringing Roomba Shark Cat into my life...

    It's beautiful - is there any possibility you might offer a print of this one at some point? This is basically what I wish I had been doing all summer long...and I can't believe that autumn is already almost upon us!

      Not sure yet, but I can probably make you a print if you want to special order one:)

    Swimming in lakes is a terrible idea! You are practically guaranteed to get cryptosporidium, and there's also the possibility of shigellosis and e coli. Don't do it! Salt water is way, way safer because it's harder for the parasites and bacteria to live in it. I have a friend who got really, really sick from a MRSA infection she got by swimming in a lake.
