BURN, Baby, BURN!
Scavenger hunts are about the only reason I post anymore, I realize... I'm not sure if this is sad or actually a great thing. I mean, on the one hand, I was once a blogging phenomenon of the internet (ok, a small blogging phenomenon, but still), on the other hand, this once prolific blogger, is at least still blogging. I think I should be happy about that.
Enough burning self-examination, let's get to the photos:
Three years ago this December, I celebrated my now-husband's Birthday for the first time. I made him a cupcake-cake that spelled out "I love you" in little candle letters. I later reduced the message to it's shortest form on just one cupcake and took this picture. I gave him this photo in a frame the next year on his birthday. it's the gift that keeps on giving! A testament to our burning love... : )

Here is a photo of the cute man himself around the time of that Birthday. That girl who's all over him should really try to show some restraint! Embarassing! (Actually, I think we bought the table in the foreground... huh, I never noticed that before!)

NUISANCE - Scavenger Shots Heard Round the World!
Cricket chose this week's word (although she rather obscured it in the comments section of a post that had nothing to do with photos! Hrmpph!) and this week's word is NUISANCE. I hope that Cricket was not implying that this game is a nuisiance... ;) great word!
Here are my nuisance shots:
Rain is a nuisance. It's a driving hazard and often interrupts our plans for outdoor activites. But like many nuisances, it also has its soft, romantic side. Like this photo I took from my penthouse apartment window of the street below. There is something so wonderful about rain falling against a window pane. It has a way of increasing the drama of the moment. Like Puccini...
Being shut in your locker is a nuisance. I suppose for those who go through it it feels like much more than a nuisance. Here I am in a locker at a previous place of employment. This was obviously just for entertainment and is in no way meant to be interpretted as an advertisement for Pepsi-Cola.
Wedding dresses in and of themselves are not a nuisance, but wedding dresses that look wonderful, and yet cost $4,500 are a nuisance. Here I am modelling a couture, silk gown I can't afford. I thought the gown I did get was even lovelier, of course, so I could say good-bye this one!

FACE THE MUSIC - SCAVENGER HUNT

DULL PHOTO HUNT
How come no one told me there was actually a word for this weekend? *sigh*



Regardless, better late than never! Here are some dull shots of antique books I am planning to sell on Ebay. One is an original first edition Uncle Tom's Cabin with illustrations (1852), the other is a somewhat battered complete works of Shakespeare:
