Friday's Five

Usually I never wish for a work week to fly by, but this has been a very long week, full of night meetings, lots of proofing and deadlines.

I'm elated that today is the end of it, to say the least.

When I was able to take a short break from the chaos, I was able to harvest some of the last garden tomatoes of the summer.

{I broke these out these in anticipation of the fall class I'll be taking soon}

{Spoils from a crab feast from last weekend's bridal luncheon}

{An unopened Christmas present that lives in a drawer in my dresser}

{Last weekend my mom and I were going through her jewelry boxes and we found this little gem--

a locket my grandfather gave my grandmother in the 1930s,

while they were dating.

Too beautiful for words.}
