I love TED Talks. The topics are always thought-provoking and the presenters, top notch. This one is no exception. If you love animals, you'll be inspired.

Sunday Meditation
"In fact, if one person is unkind to an animal
it is considered to be cruelty,
but where a lot of people are unkind to animals,
especially in the name of commerce,
the cruelty is condoned and,
once large sums of money are at stake,
will be defended to the last
by otherwise intelligent people."
- Ruth Harrison, author of Animal Machines

"I was so moved by the intelligence,
sense of fun and personalities of the animals
I worked with on Babe that by the end of the film
I was a vegetarian."

Lovely pump

| These textured heels are simple and chic. What wouldn't they go with this spring? And isn't that heel just perfect? Plus sans leather they are perfectly kind! |

Color!
I've had my eye on color today.
I think it's another symptom of my spring fever
(alas it's only the end of January!).
So bright and cheerful.
I love the unexpected combinations.
I just ran across these shoes from Madden Girl
that capture the same spirit.
(cruelty-free of course!)

Planting the seeds
I decided I'm going to try to grow some kale and swiss chard
in one of my new little backyard garden beds.
in one of my new little backyard garden beds.
This isn't the best time of year to plant outside in Seattle,
so I'm going to start seedlings indoors and then transplant them.
Here's a little photo-journal of the first few weeks...
My seed packs arrived!
The beds are ready!
Swiss chard seeds
Kale seeds - teeny tiny!
The best window for the seedlings is near the bar.
Why not?
My sentiments exactly! "YES!" Grow, little seeds, grow!
About one week later. Sprouts!!!
Look how much they grew in just 2 days!
These are the kale sprouts.
And 5 days later. WOW!
Very satisfying.
Those are the chard sprouts on the right.
Still growing strong!
Now I have to figure out the
best time to transplant them outdoors.
Seems a little early still.
Stay tuned!

Nude heels
I think I'm over winter.
Is it possible to have spring fever in January?
Well, whatever the reason, I've found myself
looking for a pair of nude heels.
You can wear them with just about anything
so maybe they make sense in winter too?
I thought I'd share some of my
favorite options from my search so far.
Vegan, of course!
It's hard to tell the exact shade
of nude that will look best.
Some are more tan, more yellow, lighter...
Right now I'm thinking the first option,
the rsvp Velma. Normally I don't
go for an ankle strap, but
I think it works on these shoes.
Hmmmm.
