i am way into photo booths--but they are impossible to find. i am now blessed with this locator.

I have meant to post this for a while now. A friend gave me one of
these for my birthday last month. I think it's just the best. You can also find old knitting patterns for sweaters and hats on the website.

Loved to Pieces


I enjoy reading this from time to time. Today I stumbled upon this posting. What's so amazing is that this could've been written about me over 20 years ago. My name is Mia and I had a "pinkie" that I loved. It was made by a family member and I carried it with me everywhere. My grandparents called it my "Cârpa"; Romanian for rag. But I loved it. And when it was falling apart, my mother cut a small square for me to keep. I'm sure she still has it.

Mash it up

The world of mash ups is fascinating. At this site you can see all the movie theaters with their shows and times in San Francisco. At Kayak Buzz, just type in your departing airport and you can see the lowest airfares for cities around the world.
