One of my favorite un-morning-morning things to do is to eat a piece of cake for breakfast. Yum! Always starts the day off right. : )

I have that Mary Poppins album on vinyl. It looks even cuter as a postcard! And my favorite un-morningtime activity? Eating a bunch of the best raspberry linzers ever from the bakery across the street!

Good morning to you :) Love the Barbies, they look like the one's my mom had when she was a wee girl!

I saw that article about the Mad Men dolls a couple of weeks ago and thought they were pretty adorable! I'm not into Barbies (go Blythe! Heh), but Joan is my favorite too...
Un-morning morning activities? I sometimes watch TV shows I recorded the night before in the morning. AND I used to go to the cinema by myself a lot in the morning when I was in college, between classes and such. There were times when I was the only one in the theater! But I enjoyed the silence. Weird, I know. I am a little weird... :P
Good morning to you (it's already the afternoon here), and have a wonderful and creative day! :)

ugh, i'm bothered that joanie is being modeled as "barbie-sized" when one of the reasons i lover her most is that she is human & has real shape. oh well! i love mad men all the same!

Cake and pizza for breakfast is the best!!!

Joan is def the cutest! Love her red hair and her curves!

I can't wait to work for myself some day. I've had a really bad migrane the past 2 days and my boss just insulted me and made me cry =,( My mam bought me some new storage boxes today, I just want to go home, sort my craft stuff to cheer myself up a bit then go to bed and rest!
Any advice for getting round a totally rude and arrogant boss?

I'm obsessed with BARBIES in general...these are STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS!
Posted by: Brianna | March 25, 2010 at 09:58 AM
I think I'll be picking up or asking for my birthday, the Joan and Betty barbies. The guys don't look like Don and Roger at all in my opinion. But my fav morning un-morning activity has to be pizza for breakfast, my boyfriend hates it but I love it. : )

Joan is definitely super cute! Sometimes on the weekend I have salad for breakfast, especially spring/summer when we have everything fresh from the farmer's market and our garden. :) Very un-morning but so delish!
Posted by: Trude | March 25, 2010 at 10:42 AM
i like watching movies in bed before i get up sometimes too.:) and maybe cake for breakfast on occasion.
Posted by: Mary-Beth | March 25, 2010 at 11:06 AM
hmmm fav un-morning activity would have to be just staying in bed and reading for a few hours. It feels really unproductive and really relaxing! I cant wait to see the messy photos...I love seeing peoples creative spaces in all their glory! :)
Posted by: Jena | March 25, 2010 at 11:08 AM
I guess someone was bound to pounce on some after market retail item from Mad Men. It is such a delicious show, afterall! Favorite unmorning-morningtime activity? Movies are up there on my list, too. Also, cooking. And reading in bed. Mmmm.

I wonder how much a year you spend on coffee drinks? hehe
love the chanel no.5 embroidery hoop.
TGIT,

I do not watch Mad Men but it seems that anything that has a cult following is getting a Barbie now..they are cute I will give you that.
Un-morning morning activity: I guess eating french fries for breakfast one time.
