I LOVE BEAUTIFUL THINGS … {especially after the morning I’ve had} … Which is Why I {Heart} Elizabeth Messina

by alison

Happy Thursday, my friends. I just escorted a HUGE bug to the other side of the street, and it was disgusting. Though my 6-year-old niece and 3-year old nephew seem to think it’s “cooooooool” which I get, but my niece in particular kept calling it “pretty.” Pretty? It was an inch and a half (for serious) and it had two sets of mouth talons, because I guess it needs a backup set of mouth talons if the first set of mouth talons somehow fail him in his taloning pursuits. (Makes me seriously wonder what I must look like to her, since she likes to call me pretty, too.) Anyway, I needed some color lovin’ to try and forget about this morning’s experience. This did the trick:

Thoughts? Is this inspiring or is this inspiring? Elizabeth Messina makes my heart pump more blood throughout my body, and at a faster pace, which simulates the feeling of being in love with her. I’m feeling very confused, but I kinda like it.

Too funny. In regards to Elizabeth Messina….aw yes my heart pitter patters over her work…which like Naomi says is a heaven like. I don't know how she does it but she seems to capture the “feel” if you know what I mean!
Hope the rest of your day is bug free
