Time for a Trip



Last May, DOTR purchased two different scents from Truefitt & Hill when we were in London. Along with that, they threw in dozens of single use scents that I've been, ahem, enjoying for the past year.

The first bottle (1805) is now gone, and he's cracked the seal on the second (Clubman). He tells me that when he bought them the second was my favorite, but I'm missing that first one. A lot.

Is there a better reason to go to London?*

*yes, I'm aware you can order online, but that will be our little secret in the Normal Household.

Hometown Musings


I imagine that most of the folks Toad has asked to post here have found something charming about the little corner of the world where each of us has chosen to live.

How about we start a series sharing our special place and why we chose it (or it chose each of us?)

I know this will require some work, but I'll start with something going on in my backyard today.

More later.

Mr. Toad's

My friend, Denise, of EatPlayLove sent along some pics of her recent trip to Old Town, Omaha. Ostensibly the trip was to see Coldplay, but a little R&R never hurt a girl.

Check out her blog. Denise is a young mother in Denver, with a good heart and an old soul.
