favorite things...thursday?

it's not friday. but seeing as how i'll be driving all day tomorrow and then heading out to celebrate a friend's birthday, i knew i wouldn't be able to post this. plus, i missed last week due to no internet connection and, you know, being at the beach... so here we go... the beach! old friends new friends peace opportunities family cooking and baking city uprising! confidence good books
