It's my birthday, and I'm giving away a gift!

I have a pretty big wrist and it fits me.

 Ok, so you have to turn your head sideways to see it, but this is a fabulous bracelet made of a classic skulls and flames motif.

I'll pick a random commenter here at my blog!

Detail of those bad-ass skulls.

The Saga of the Backyard.

The Charming Man and I never spent much time in our backyard, even though we had an enormous deck and a plethora of shady trees. It was always full of unpleasant insects and lacked any privacy.

This summer, we decided to renovate the back yard as a memorial to my beloved Grandmother. On the hottest day of August, some of the Charming Man's co-workers were kind enough to come help rip up part of the deck. Now the rest of it is gone and we are beginning on the journey to construction.

Here are pictures of what our back yard looks like now- your basic mud pit, but full of promise.

Soon it will be a Middle Eastern style retreat.
