The Little Art Connoisseur (1863) August Friedrich Siegert

Last time this came around I showed my three year old and he said "He's little like me!" and stared for a whole minute (v. Long in toddler time).

New York is the exact opposite of Minnesota. New York is where the Big Apple is and Minnesota is where Minneapolis

JEFF WE TALKED ABOUT THIS.

I've done this scene a few times by now, but really, you can't have too many versions.

He is so sweet

Taran can't help but fumble every moment he has with Eilonwy, despite his big crush. This is the first time he really tries to put his feelings into words, and what do you know?

He's a hopeless romantic and a poet at heart

The little glimpses of their peaceful life together are so wholesome to see too!

We don't need to have just one favorite. We keep adding favorites. Our favorite book is always the book that speaks most directly to us at a particular stage in our lives. And our lives change. We have other favorites that give us what we most need at that particular time. But we never lose the old favorites. They're always with us. We just sort of accumulate them.

These were the editions of The Chronicles of Prydain I checked out of the library and read as a kid.

[naturallyred]

Deeply enchanted with the fact that Taran's memories of Eilonwy are his most precious treasure — precious enough to rival actual in-world rare magical artifacts

Taran is such a hopeless romantic

can you imagine tho if Eridians discovered radiation years and years after the Blip-A left

and they're just absolutely horrified because now they know why the Blip-A never returned, they sent them all to die, now to save their sun they have to redo the entire program all over again and Adrian is devastated -

and then three Eridian years later Rocky shows up with his pet alien and a ton of taumeoba all I LIVED BITCH

i can't stop thinking abt this post so

[hellenhighwater]

Should I be saving my money for a down payment on a house and getting rid of furniture so I have less to move? Yes. And also yes.

But consider:

She's $300 and I need her

[hellenhighwater]

She's here!!

This side-by-side was built by the Rockford Desk and Furniture Co., which only existed from 1891-1895. I've found one singular other example of this cabinet, which was auctioned over a decade ago, and was stained a dark cherry color. I personally like the color of the quartersawn oak as it is, so I'm not planning a full restoration.

I have to reblog this every time because frankly this is absolutely genius prose

[tsarina-anadyomene]

it really is quite bad for your military to have an image of itself as a warrior class. what you really want is for your soldiers to think of themselves as boring professionals who will fill out a report form if someone gets a little too warrior ethos out there
