Hello and Happy Monday! This weekend, Portland experienced unseasonably wonderful weather- nearing the low 80’s at some locations! I spent as much of my weekend as possible outside, resulting in a bit of a surplus of Vitamin D in the form of a sunburn, lots of gardening, and great times with friends and family.

And because it’s Monday (and this is what I like to do) I’ve put together some simple questions for you:

• How much do I love the simplicity of the package design for Victoria Beckham’s ready to wear fashion line? (answer: a lot.)
• Do I eat pickles at a rate in which I cannot seem to keep them stocked in the fridge? (answer: why yes I do. And I’m thinking this recipe might help solve my problems.)
• How often do I need a simple reminder to stop and take a breath before letting my stress take over? (answer: I should basically have this tatooed onto my arm)
• At what point will your propensity to rearrange furniture several times a month really start to drive your roommates crazy? (Verdict’s still out on this one- and this post from Radical Possibility has me itching to move large, unwieldy couches.)
