Oh Anthropologie, how you woo me so!

Mr. New Guy & I spent the day at Bridgestreet and one of my must-stops is Anthropologie where I found this milk bottle measuring cup set. I swoon...

How many times will it take for me to get it right?

What have I done?
I wish I could run
Away from this ship going under
Just trying to help, hurt everyone else
Now I feel the weight of the world is on my shoulders

What can you do when your good isn't good enough?
When all that you touch tumbles down?
Cause my best intentions keep making a mess of things
I just wanna fix it somehow.

But how many times will it take?
Oh how many times will it take for me
To get it right
To get it right

Can I start again with my faith shaken?
Cause I can't go back and undo this
I just have to stay and face my mistakes
But if I get stronger and wiser
I'll get through this

What can you do when your good isn't good enough?
When all that you touch tumbles down?
Cause my best intentions keep making a mess of things
I just wanna fix it somehow

But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take for me
To get it right
To get it right

So I throw up my fist
I will punch in the air
And accept the truth that sometimes life isn't fair
I'll send out a wish
I'll send up a prayer
And finally someone will see
How much I care

What can you do when your good isn't good enough?
When all that you touch tumbles down?
Cause my best intentions keep making a mess of things
I just wanna fix it somehow

But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take for me
To get it right
To get it right

Green with Envy

Saint Patrick's Day is coming up and that combined with my Scotch-Irish heritage and love of all things green led me to post vertigris varieties via online vendors.
First up: Williams-Sonoma






Next (let's all sigh after we say this...) Anthropologie
