Amy cooks with whole, natural and organic ingredients,
Today the sun is peeking out from behind the clouds for the first time since last Friday. It’s been dreary and drizzly and perfectly overcast. I’m normally a champion for this exact weather, but feeling sick and contending with the lack of sunshine was really taking its toll on me! So I thought I’d pay my respects to today’s transition with some lovely umbrella photos.

With the holidays only a hop, skip and a jump away I’m doing some major penny pinching. Between flying home to Pennsylvania and buying and shipping gifts my bank account is on a major diet. Every penny counts and I’d love to have one of these Coin Storage banks to keep track of them all. It’s actually a bank/tray combo, so you can set your keys or cash right on top. And when it’s time to empty out, just pop off the bottom lid and you’re all set! {via Better Living Through Design}
