Monday's Most Wanted

{toggle.coats} 

I can't decide which I like more, the way toggles look on a coat, or just saying the word "toggle." I need one! I would be ready for U of I football in this gorgeous toggle coat from Overstock.com. I once had a green toggle sweatshirt, but it disappeared.. I think I might have left it at Carino's after my lunch shift...never to see it again. Shoot! I wish I could find it hidden in the bottom of a drawer somewhere. We have moved three times since I last had it, so the likely hood of it being hidden somewhere is very small. Maybe I will save up and buy this one. Please don't sell out, lovely size 6, orange, hooded toggle coat. I need you to keep me warm this fall.



{seagrass.baskets}

This basket caught my eye at Target a couple weeks ago. Isn't it cute with it's little chalkboard tag. I'm just waiting for it to get marked down (a lot). It got several good reviews on Target.com for being durable, which is good news, since I would like to use it for corralling shoes by the front door. We are not "take your shoes off when you enter our home OR DIE" type of people, but it would be nice to have this attractive basket to throw our shoes into when we come inside during the winter months. People don't need mud rooms or foyers in San Antonio, because we don't deal with all that ice and snow business. But here, they really are a necessity! So since we don't have a mudroom, we could really use this basket.

I love scalloped things. Not oysters, but the shape. It makes things cuter. More feminine. Kind of like a doily. I love doilies. We had doilies all over our house when I was a little kid and my mom said I used to take them and use them to wrap up different objects (toys, rocks, food, etc.) Then I would give the doily wrapped items to her as presents. It totally makes sense that I used to do that, because I still love giving gifts to people! Here are some more cool scalloped things:

My friend mentioned some of these guys' lyrics on her blog so I looked them up and this is what I found: 


Did you just hear that? Oh my word, I like these guys. And they are coming to Champaign! Yippee! And their Christians! Double Yippee!
