Striking gold

I stopped by the thrift store down the street to sift through the craft supplies. I didn't find much in the crafts (which is strange because I normally come away with at least one priceless item), but I did find three killer necklaces.

This one reminded me of a brooch my great-grandma gave me.
Plus, it's a really good color purple, no?


When I was 9, my Christmas list consisted
of anything with whales or dolphins on it.
Here's to my old self. Now, I'd prefer whales.


Obviously, I will wear this with my gold tuxedo.
