Teeny tiny printer-y goodness!
I confess to having something of an obsession with miniature things. Miniature things that actually do major functions are even more obsession-worthy.
This little (wireless!) printer is just about the cutest techy-thing I've seen in forever. As I write so infrequently (never) about technology here, a post on a wee device is kind of a Big Deal.
But it's cute, and cute matters here darn it!

Where oh where have I been?
It's already early July ... how did that happen?
Since my last blog post here, I've been working feverishly on my main blog. I've abandoned my well-intentioned blog The Picture of Pretty because there's just not enough time. I started walking, lost some more weight, got into a brief but fairly tempestuous relationship with a handsome foreign-born man (oooh heartache, you are a stern taskmaster) ... in other words, I've been living my life and times just goes by.
I've paid scant attention to the aesthetic aspects of my life, and I miss that. I broke out a new set of sheets today (very Shabby Chic) -- white, pink roses, countryside pretty -- and got inspired by them. There's so much I still want to do with this odd shaped, cookie-cutter apartment.
I also went blond(ish), and am convinced anew that God made a mistake. That he should have finished the job before I popped out of the oven; born with frosted hair I was, when I should've been blonde. Are you there God? If you're listening, it's time for a little miracle.
Hope your Summer is progressing nicely and that you've been bringing beauty into your days on a regular basis. Because guess what -- if we don't do it for ourselves, nobody else will!
