Babysitting Preen

Last Friday I got to man the shop for the lovely Emilie and Erin.



I ate a wonderful dinner of spinach and cheddar quiche, a garden salad and fresh strawberries.



"Ziggy played guitar"...and had awesome boots.




preen
Verb
1. (of birds) to clean or trim (feathers) with the beak
2. to smarten (oneself) carefully
3. preen oneself (often foll. by on)to be self-satisfied [Middle English preinen]

Hence- PEACOCKS!



Frames, dresses and plumes...




I just thought that was a cool album cover.




This is the suitcase I'd take with me to travel through Europe. It would start empty and fill up with treasure.



Part of my payment. Haven't decided what frame will hold it's splendor, all I know is that it makes me sublimely happy.

If you want to visit Emilie and Erin's love child, stop by 272 E. Congress, for you locals. Or maybe www.etsy.com/preentucson, for those of you not surrounded by saguaro.

It's easy to write about a place you like!

It was awesome to hang out there. I'd do it again in a heartbeat!
