The Journey

I’m in a rather reflective mood today remembering how my life was a year ago and comparing it to how things are now.  This past year has been full of changes for us including my husband enlisting in the Navy, being apart for months upon months while he trained, and then moving a thousand miles away from the only home I’ve ever known.  It’s really all worked out for the best and I’m optimistic about the future and what is store for us. 

I thought this The Journey Necklace from Soul Peaces on Etsy reflected my mood very well.  This necklace is just beautiful with it’s moss colored chalcedony stone and handcut sterling silver tag.  I find this piece to be very delicate and insprational.  It will definitly be staying on my favorites list for later purchase.  I’m sure through all the twists and turns of life that many of you can relate to the symbolism of this necklace.  I love that it’s also packaged with a card featuring a wonderful quote that I’d like to share with you as well.

“The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same. Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination.”
-Poet Don Williams, Jr.

Isn’t this just gorgeous?

Getting Sporky With It!

If you have been following my post you may think at first glance that today is National Spork Day or something silly like that.  Well no m’am it is not, I just wanted to feature a much underrated utensil that I personally enjoy very much, the spork!  A spork is a handy combination of spoon, fork, and fun.  I am overjoyed each time I open up a fast food restraunt handy pack to find a spork inside. 

I found this adorable Spork Necklace from MaryMary Handmade on Etsy.  The spork charm on this sterling silver necklace is a petite 1″ long, so not too bulky.  I just love this!  MaryMary Handmade offers many more adorable whimsical pieces of jewelry including a Happy Teacup Necklace, Happy Manatee Necklace, and Happy Sloth Necklace.  I would be elated to recieve any of these cute pieces as a gift.

 Ah, if there was ever a shirt for me this would be it.  I found this adorable Sporks Family T-Shirt from The Shirt Dudes on Etsy.  This tee comes in your choice of red, charcoal, or black and can be made in a mens or womens style.  I personally love the red.  These shirts are 100% cotton with screenprint.  At The Shirt Dudes a portion of the profits from each shirt sold are donated to various charities and with each purchase you recieve a free gift.  I love free stuff, hooray!

The Shirt Dudes have a variety of other funny shirts in case you don’t like sporks (really who doesn’t like sporks though?).  Some of my favorites from The Shirt Dudes include B is for Burrito, Today is Meh’, and Turtle Becomes Ninja.  All adorable!  Check these tee’s out.

And there you have it ladies and gents (because certaintly we have some male followers too right?).  My favorite Spork items.  Unfortunatly Etsy doesn’t have a wide variety of spork items, I hope to petition to change this so one day there will be a spork item for every taste.  Who’s with me?
