with a cherry on top

sometimes i forget how much i like museums. as a geeky 11 year old, my favorite book was From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. did you read this book?? oh my. claudia and her little brother run away from home and live in the met in new york. she packed her clothes in her violin case (i played violin!! err...at least i faked it) and they took baths in the fountains and collected coins for food, solved an art mystery. oh my little heart was swooning. but anyway, i digress. i have always had a love of museums and was so sad to miss out on the goodness minneapolis had to offer. our main day there was monday, and sadly everything was closed, but we did take a stroll in the sculpture garden at the walker art center. it was great and of course we had to take pictures of the spoon & cherry. of course. we consoled ourselves with food and wine. so dont feel bad. i feel the itch to sew, which i hope to satisfy soon. although, a friend just loaned me the new harry potter. hmmm. i feel a battle of past times coming on. i made a new discovery on flickr this weekend, sixwordstory. so great. i have already submitted my first two, furthering my flickr addiction.
