Notice a trend here?
I've been gardening all my life...one of my first memories is pulling weeds and sitting underneath the hydrangeas in St.Helena where I went to kindergarten.....I Like ~~ I grow Black, Varigated & Green Flowers....Anything striped and very fragrant. I love Heirloom and old-fashioned Gardens with Roses,Fuschias, Iris, Lilacs, Chrysanthemums, Daisies, Pumpkins and mostly Pansies and Violets....
I grow antique flowers and vegetables
and I was probably the first organic farm in Washington to grow and sell Heirloom flowers and vegetables including those Odd Tomatoes you see everywhere -- NOW !
I sold at the Gig Harbor Farmer's Market back in '93 -'94.
And , I used to write a gardening column.
I don't have the farm anymore....because now I sell Vintage clothes and vintage almost-anything else !
When I have time I make clothes and accessories that reflect my DIY quirky style....and list them in my store on ebay.AND...studying, writing and talkin' LAW.................And if you like these things too, we have a lot in common !


Why yes I do look like Hunter S. Thompson, don't I?

And.... I've had it...with the New Tacomans... no more Ms. NiceLady... I'm starting up the BLOG...you think you know Tacoma...You ain't seen nothing yet !
I have a sarcastic attitude but I am actually a very nice person ! My interest in being honest and telling the truth and challenging authority upsets people who insist on staying ignorant -- oh well !
I like the way things were made in the past -- Quality ! I hate Wal-Mart and crap made by slaves in poor countries. That's another reason I like vintage ...
I hate to say I TOLD YOU SO ! but since I am a MOM, I told you that soft drinks (fizzy drinks in England) were BAD for you! Now didn't I ? They cause tooth decay, make you fat and can be part of the cause of you giving your child DIABETES, and they make kids turn into White Trash Monsters, even if they're not white.

and I just wanted to mention that January's birthday is January 15th...she's 39. She's my first born. I love her more than I could ever tell you...no matter how many words I use....and aren't I a special mom, that I could arrange for a National Holiday just for her on her special special day??

Musicwell now I'm listening to jazz......

Miles Davis, Brubeck, Dexter Gordon, T. Monk

.....Amy Winehouse
Shins, Decemberists...uh...
I grew up on old country and western, and rhythm and blues. Jimmie Rodgers , Woody Guthrie, Johnny Cash,Willie, Waylon (who's that Waylon Jennings and how did he get that name?, said the whale),
Hank, Hank, Hank, all of 'em, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, all the old Southern blues and jazz.....Wanda Jackson, Kitty Wells, Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline, Patsy Montana.......
I like anyone who has a State as a last name !

Robert Johnson, anyone with Blind in their name, and SKA !! and everyone loves Bob Marley...
And good Christ ... how could I forget Skeeter Davis...cripes -- I have all her albums...Lucinda Williams is the top of my list now and has been since 1990 -- she calls that old country --"Stone Country". Neil Young is my top fella muscian now -- John Lennon is my favorite from my girlhood - he will always reign supreme.
Dylan, duh, Jakob Dylan (did the theme song for THE GUARDIAN..how f'ing cool is that?) James McMurtry (wore out his first tape) -- And not just because my daughter is her friend, I LOVE Neko Case...Chris Isaak, Mike Johnson, Damien Jurado, Vicci Martinez....and the highly underrated Edie Brickell.....
Classics --- Nina Simone,Peggy Lee, Edith Piaf, Billie Holiday.... and Tony Bennett, Tom Jones, Bobby Darin.... and some swing.
I like Folk music as much too, and that's why Woody Guthrie is up there ---
the Pogues -- I love the Irish!! ...
Cure ! Pixies ! The Clash ! Nanci Griffith.... Kinky Friedman..... And let's not forget early 20th century music --Josephine Baker, Bessie Smith and so on....
it's all over the place....... it has to tell a story and the music has to fit .... or it can be slow....and weepy... I am a sucker for the Power Ballad .......

MoviesTo Kill A Mockingbird,Drugstore Cowboy, Out of Africa, The Big Lebowski, Withnail & I, Fight Club, Ghost World, Freaks, MirrorMask, Stardust,Hedwig & The Angry Inch,
Anything Steampunk.City of Lost Children, The Man With The X-Ray Eyes, Reds, Erin Brockovich, One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest, Sometimes A Great Notion, Cool Hand Luke...
Children of Paradise,Quadrophenia, BlowUp, Viridiana ,City of Women,Diva ,Ediths Shopping Bag, Even Dwarfs Start Small, Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown
anything with Ida Lupino, Cesar Romero, Heath Ledger, Jack Nicholson and/or Diane Keaton, anything filmed in Napa County or New Orleans, in and around Tacoma... (I like to remember the way it was)
.....MUSICALS !!!...WESTERNS !!!.....all the Black & White film noir B movies, mysteries---- anything European and from other parts of the globe.
TelevisionI don't really like anything on much on TV ...tho I do wish I had cable TV....Gawd I DESPISE REALITY SHOWS....
I get no TV reception at all ..I watch shows on the internet ....I just watched ALL of LOST...and now onto Mad Men..I love the clothes...

I still love NCIS because of David McCallum who used to be in The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (1964) with co-star Robert Vaughn (do you remember Ilya Kuryakin ?) & Pauley Perrette was born in New Orleans -- gothy girl who studied for a Master's degree in Criminology -- now that's my kinda girl !

and of course major eye candy-- Mark Harmon !
The OFFICE .....and EARL.... because I told you so.......
I still miss The Guardian 'cause it was a show about pretty much what I do for neglected and abused kids in my other life as law-nerd. Best freaking Theme Song EVER -- Jakob Dylan......hello !!
OMG !!! The Mentalist !!! Yes.....
the Ellen Show !!

BooksI have SO many books in my house -- it is tipping to the west.......Right Now I'm re-reading: the Rise and Fall of Cities, by Jane Jacobs,and re-reading Moby Dick this summer, then on to Conrad .... I will read anything.....but when the world is a bit amiss... I pick up poetry... or a fashion magazine.....from the sublime to the ridiculous.......
HeroesPeople who resist narcissism....and understand why anyone who is like George W. Bush is bad for humanity and the planet that my 4 granddaughters will have to live on........

God damn to hell myspace buggy....

I sell vintage because it sets you apart from the Sheeple...I synthesize disparate information into a cohesive whole.
A vintage lifestyle has an attitude of rebellion, sexuality, and freedom—and certainly a sneering expression of disdain for authority figures.

What To Do With Your Time...and why have a MySpace page....(Because eBay/capitalism can become anonymous/cold, and this brings us a little closer, which is the point of living).



Recycled clothing, handmade fun and oddments from the flotsam and jetsam of life... Vintage Clothes for Men & Women ** Children ** Sewing & Patterns ** Always Cute & Never Mediocre! Classic Vintage

People who love STYLE, vintage, with a love for and an appreciation of the funky stuff, and not afraid to dress with imagination.....who understands why A&F sucks.........people who live with Artful Chaos.....and if you're a lawyer..... oh yeah, I know what a subpoena duces tecum is...........and I love dreaming about my deceased mother, Lomita, and my deceased brother, Leland.................

Hey girl!!!! What's up? How's life on your end?

Oh thank you so much for the cute SS gifts! I rigged a hook in that little camera and hung it on the Christmas Tree and it was so cute!

Oh and those headscarves have been a life saver while we scrape, sand and refinish our hardwood floors, even though my hubby thinks I am channeling Amy Winehouse wearing them! Ha!

Anyhoo, thanks for joining sweetie!
