I wish I was a baller

Does anyone else remember Skee-Lo?  No?  Well he sang thing song about wishing he was a baller, to this day I can't listen to it without laughing.  On to more serious things though, isn't this new sports bra cute?  It's Demi's latest edition to her expanding line at Boom.  The minute I got it I knew i was going to be wearing my new LeLutka hair and strutting around a basketball court with my new LAP basketball prop!

Of late my house has been overrun by KittyCats, to the point that furniture was actually becoming a non essential in the search for more prims but new Nordari goodness changed all that.  The crazy cat women is taking a rest (for a few days at least).   Credits and larger images below.

Thistle Sweetpea Cottage

I've been in a bit of a perpetual bad mood for the last week or two due to a shoulder injury that just won't go away, so when I saw this too cute for words cottage up for grabs in last week's Super Bargain Saturday I knew I just HAD to have it.  It's cute, cozy, colourful and low prim, all the things I needed for an instant mood buster!

The cottage is still available in two versions, the valentines version, which I am showing here, is a mere $250L but if pink isn't rocking your world there is a texture change version in green, blue and pink or a combination of all three as well for $650L.  So jump on over to Thistle Homes and snap up this adorable little cottage for yourself.

I still call Australia home

I'm always travelling, I love being free

and so I keep leaving the sun and the sea

but my heart lies waiting over the foam

I still call Australia home...

I'm scrapping in with barely 30 minutes to spare but, I hope all my fellow Aussie SLers had a wonderful Australia Day!

<3

Home & Garden Hunt

Better late than never right?

This was kind of the motto of my Home & Garden Hunt experience this year.  So it seems fitting that I would finally blog about it after the hunt was finished!

You see, as I've indicated before I'm actually not much of a hunt person as I have very little tolerance for major ass lag, this is why I will never be the first at a fair or in a hunt.  But a birdy told me the Home and Garden Hunt was well worth the effort...and they were right.  There were definitely some awesome finds to be had. 

Here are just a few of my favourites:

I'm not sure if any of these items are available for sale at the individual stores now, but if you likie you should probably go and check it out.
