Bathroom Humor

I was wandering through my picture folders and found these gems from the Newseum bathrooms...

I realized that I have taken several pictures of myself in various bathrooms this year. Some are better than others, but it is fun to play... especially if there is no one else there to give you weird looks.

I would pay good money to hear a panada lecture.

What can I say? When even the bathrooms are cool you have no excuse not to visit DC!

Ocean in a Box

My world is full of surprises as familiar places and people reveal secret sides that I don't catch on the first or fiftieth time around. For example, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) or as I like to think of it, that building that I walk by everyday on the way to the metro has this fountain on its far side. I found it when I came to cast my vote early this month. How cool is that? It was so cool that I had to grab my camera and go back again. I learned from a cartographer who works here that the rock formation is modeled after part of the coast up in Maine.

Everything is Under Control...

in the kitchen when I have a box (or more) of Ziplock bags. You can do all sorts of things with plastic bags. They are great for sandwiches, cheese, leftovers, and have cross-over appeal in the bathroom, craft area or packing for your next trip. And they come in so many sizes!

Random, but let me explain. I was reading Cathy Zielske's scrapbooking book Clean & Simple. She did a fabulous page about paper towels. The one thing that she has to have in the kitchen. I have to say that paper towels are nice, but Ziplock baggies are so much better. What's your must have?
