Summer Rain, Baby Beluga and a Whong

1. As we get out of the car, there is a blue-gray sky with low summer sunlight and the smell of a summer rain. We pause to breath in...

2. Finding a surprise kitchen gadget in my bag of goodies from yesterday's thrift store excursion ...A whisk/tongs that I have now named a whong. A fabulous vintage egg-beater was the grab-bag item I was actually after. The "whong" was just a happy bonus.

3. Discovering a cute little ceramic whale in my daughter's thrift store box as I was putting her items in the dishwasher to give them a good cleaning. I saw the whale at the thrift store and it made me smile. With no discussion of the whale, with us not even being together when we each saw it, I found it in my daughter's bounty box. She too, thought it adorable and bought it as a gift for me. He is one of those things that you just can't look at without smiling. I love surprises!
