Random things that are cute and awesome

May 21, 2010

First, baby woodchucks are the cutest things to ever cute. Not that this blog is going to turn into “Wildlife in the back yard of c.’s workplace,” but seriously, tell me this isn’t the cutest shit ever:

How much wood...

can a baby woodchuck chuck

Seriously, you guys. Tell me that isn’t killing you from cute.

Killing you from something, though probably not cuteness, and probably not awesomeness:

Mesh hats and rainbow suspenders...the 80s were rad!

b. is on a work trip right now, prepping for a crazy busy commercial shoot and requested this fine photo for a possible background prop. I’ve always loved this picture, but until she requested a high-res version of it, I hadn’t looked at it up close in ages. How great is this? I’m 5, sporting my brand spanking new tee-ball uniform (I was on the “yellow team,” no need for fancy titles. My BFF Gedean was on the “black team,” and I recall actually discussing the fact that we may have to act like enemies at the tee-ball park as we were on opposing teams,) complete with cushy mesh cap (eat your heart out Ashton Kutcher). But really, this picture is ALL ABOUT b.’s Mork suspenders and corduroys. And let’s be honest, her mullet bangs. I totally had those bangs too, but my sweet sweet cap is blocking them. Other things about this picture that are good? The old school lawn chair with weaved fabric…still love those. And our amazing back yard. Home to numerous adventures and forms of tag (tv tag, freeze tag, tunnel tag, etc.). Just another example of our idyllic childhood.

And now for the random. And slightly nerdy. When I’m into something, I get a little obsessive. And this time of year, it’s gardening. I harvested these radishes last night.

This is the first time I’ve grown radishes and they were super tasty. Nice and spice. And they came up much quicker than I would have guessed.

Have a great weekend, friends.

    There is so much to love about this post, I almost don’t know where to start. Oh, who are we kidding: rainbow suspenders!!

    I am so excited for you and your radishes! I don’t even like radishes, but I’m envious. I have a couple yellow crookneck squash that will probably be ready for harvesting in the near future, and I am so ridiculously excited about it. Also, I have a gazillion cherry tomatoes on a volunteer plant that came up near my fence. It’s COVERED in tomatoes. Gardening is teh awesome.
