INSPIRATION THURSDAY

Jonathan Adler

I always make it a point to browse around the Jonathan Adler store in San Francisco.  And drool over things I may never be able to afford.



INSPIRATION THURSDAY: DEADLIEST CATCH

I have been a fan of Discovery Channel's Deadliest Catch from the very beginning. This season has been following Captain Phil's death. It's very sad, and also touching--the camera men are fantastic. I really hope they have won, or will won some kind of award for cinematography. They truly are amazing. They have been able to pay special tribute to Captain Phil while still maintaining and not losing focus of the show's true subject-- crab fishing. I think they've done a respectable job. In honor of Captain Phil, and Deadliest Catch--I decided to do a Nautical inspired post.

You'll probably laugh because Deadliest Catch is such a manly show, and this post and the stuff in it are so girly.  But I'm girl, so here goes:
