Wall Tree

Here’s my first art purchase! Well, kind of. I won the art but paid for the frame. Heh. I won “Seventeen” from a contest on Raven’s blog a while back. It’s been sitting in my office since then, waiting to get custom framed. But then I talked to Raven and she said that Mike, her husband the artist, can do the custom framing too.

Ranked

Matt the Lost Boy launched his top 100 Thailand blogs ranking. Guess who came in at #21? ETA: Ranking changed daily.  So I’ve dropped like gazillion spots since the launch.  Haha!  Get over there and help me at least stay on the list, okay? I am surprised and honored to actually get to share the edge of the spotlight where the really good blogs about Thailand are featured. My blog is more of a personal rant and rave with some Thai flavors. Well, heck, I’m Thai! What other flavor is this blog going to have? Even my husband says that...
