Busman's Holiday -- Austin, TX
Lovely antique shop in the SOCO area...
The little Dutch boy, who is smaller than my thumb, came home with me. I just couldn't resist.

Busman's Holiday - Austin, TX
Beauties from the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center...
(This one was, I believe, a wink from the Princess Mom. Why? They're named "Barbara's Buttons.")

Busman's Holiday -- Austin, TX
I thought I wanted embroidered Old Gringos... and then I saw these. It was lust at first sight! (I'm saving my pennies up.)
Yes.
Bus Fumes
I'm putting this here, rather than on Facebook, because I have theater friends I don't want to offend.
It seems Governor Giveaway just couldn't contain himself during his Lame Duck period and decided to give Chicago Children's Theatre $5 million in state funds to renovate a former police station into a new, permanent theater space.
Anyone who knows me knows that I love and support the arts. But what I do not and cannot support is the Governor throwing $5 million dollars of state money at a not-for-profit that does a pretty damned great job of fundraising on their own when the state can't fund our freaking state pensions and can't pay our bills.
Pat Quinn is probably a very nice person on a personal basis, but he makes terrible financial decisions and is a horrible governor. I can't wait for him to go.
