love this

I saw this tree in Rittenhouse Square this past weekend when running around with my girlfriends. So I googled the story. Thoughts?

Despicable Me

Was awarded six thumbs up by me, Isaac and my mom. I liked it even better than Toy Story. Check it out!

words can't bring me down

My love for our first lady's sense of style?

One of my favorite blogs Tlo always profiles her styles choices.

I love how she always modernizes the traditional first lady pearls and suits. She always looks so sleek and modern.

I appreciate that...

No, no. It's not racial profiling. It's just targeting people based on their clothes, grooming habits, appearances and accents....

So I was debating joining the throngs of Philly people heading to the shore today, when my mom convinced me to join her and my dad for a day at the Kutztown Folk Festival. When I hear Folk Festival I think dirty hippies (which is totally cool!) but this was more PA dutch. It was a good time, despite the absolutely sweltering weather (high 90s with very little shade).

Old fashioned merry go round (pulled by that horse).

Oogling Amish quilts. Isaac announced loudly that quilting was "a good thing for old ladies to do". Several old ladies turned around and chuckled. One of my favorites.

All of the food was PA Dutch type. Seriously, gross.

Bubble machine/organ.

Isaac rode around through the dust in one of those little tin can cars.

This was fun.

I felt so bad for this sheep but it just sat there. As the man explained, when you take it's legs out from under it, it has no power...

Hex signs.
