just another sunday...

Even though Sunday is bittersweet because it indicates the end of the weekend and the beginning of yet another work week ..... i like to think that sometimes it's more sweet than it is bitter :]

Phil surprised me by taking me to the Houston Urban Market ... awesome! i cannot wait to go again in October! It's a collection of designers and shop owners that sell really cool things (most of them at a discount) ... i had my eye on a matching set of chairs for my living room, but they were snatched up before i could make up my mind ... oh the tragedy :(

This is a giant letter C made of brushed aluminum ... the dealer told us he bought these letters from a business that went out of business before it even opened .... sad day for them .... happy day for the Cavazos!
this is a cheese stone from India ... who doesn't love cheese and stones!? :) when i saw it i immediately started day dreaming of dinner parties or family gatherings and my cheese serving stone being a conversation piece ... wrap it up, i'll take 3! (just kidding i only took 1)
These are wooden horse figures from India .... not quite sure what to do with these fellows ... i tried it out on the wall b/c it had a hook ... hmm ... i don't know if he will live there ... i'm sure that i can work them in somehow


These were unframed prints taken by a photographer based out of San Antonio...i am in love with these. i am pretty sure they will live in our bedroom over our nightstand dressers (another story) ... i just need to find frames. This dealer also had antique aggie boot spurs ... so cool!
okay so i brought it home and wanted to use it immediately ... not to shabby i could eat my cheese like this everyday!
Sunday dinner
i was impressed by my salad ... spinach, strawberries, pecans, feta cheese, balsamic vinaigrette
so i wanted homemade dessert ... but one that didn't take forever to make or an oven. this is cheesecake pudding (jello - no sugar mix) mixed with milk instead of water above a layer of graham cracker crumbs and topped with blueberries .. delish ... happy Sunday!
