Mustache and beard trend needs to be over

Got an email from Etsy this morning showing trendy items for sale on their site and I must share these with you. For those of you not in the know....mustaches appear on everything now, cups, dishes, towels, sheets, stationary and cards...you name the product, it has probably had a mustache design on it ....and beards are becoming hotter also. But as far as I am concerned this trend has gone a little too far.

Okay so it is fun for the young to perk up a dull day







Please do not let me see this on anyone I know and that includes you Elliot even if it would be a joke.







This is frightening and seems it would end up a gooey mess








Looks like a shag rug on a 3 year old face

Artichoke Annie’s


My friend Joyce and I went on a little Sunday adventure during my spring break from Wash U. I love Joyce because the same absurd things in life that make her laugh make me laugh. Here are the things that we found hilarious at the Artichoke Annie Antique Mall on Highway 70 in Millersburg MO near Columbia MO.


This dealer had a musical theme going






































Not the least bit obvious

In what universe does asparagus and cookies go together?

































Just like a real baby


















Really wants to make you buy the product


















Women are left to die


















My biggest fear....my artwork for sale in a flea market


















Who knew a parakeet was smart enough to graduate with a cute hat....I need some small hats for my gerbils
















for my sister who loved Popin Fresh...human sized no less

















Joyce loves these weird portraits...just goes to show men had mullets all through time
