About Me
- The Tilted Tulip
- It's time I come clean. My name is Erika and I'm a thrift-aholic. I'm a stay-at-home wife, mama of one, and on those rare moments when I'm not at a thrift store, garage/estate sale, someone's attic, etc., I can be found at home in my teeny-tiny apartment in sunny San Diego making things out of felt, reading blogs, baking pies, chillin' with my fat cat, Quincy, smiling at my husband and making up ridiculous jingles. Although the sun and I are not the best of friends (I prefer cold, drizzly days to palm trees on the beach, and long socks and scarves to flip flops and bathing suits), I'm discovering the many joys of Southern California living. I'm making it my new goal in life to bring you a treasure-trove of vintage and handmade goodies and hopefully bring some cheer and goodwill into your life.

I missed it too out here in El Cajon. I'm bummed.
Oh, thank you! I can finally come out of the closet, say in in public: Hi, my name is Linden, and I love natural disasters.
You'll love NASA's Natural Hazards site. Great satellite pictures from all over the world. They call it "hazards," but you and I both know the right word is "disasters."

us East County folks miss out on all the fun...

natural disasters are SO awesome! i like being part of something that's much bigger than me and totally out of my control...
you're funny. i like you.
Linden! That's awesome. I think it's because Disasters are just big, outsized cases of Weather. I read this once:
"Everyone begins as a child by liking Weather. You learn the art of disliking it is you grown up. Noticed it on a snowy day? The grown-ups are all going about with long faces, but look at the children - and the dogs? They know what snow's made for."
@mrs. rangoon: You are so right. The Mildrens don't seem so excited about them, but I really want to feel an earthquake someday.
@matt kirkland: Love the quote! Guess I never learned that "art." Thankfully!
allie-
Right back at ya! Too bad you weren't still in town to feel the ground shakin'. :)
