10 Things I Want for My Birthday

I’m getting my kitchen renovated. Majorly renovated. That means my birthday present next week is pretty much covered, and for possibly the next 20 birthdays after that. *sigh* Anyway, if I wasn’t getting my kitchen done, here are a few things I might ask for. Sort of like Oprah’s Favourite Things, only nobody is getting any of this stuff, including me. Sorry. But it’s fun to dream, right?

Mumford  & Sons. Not the actual band, silly. Just concert tickets. Nothing in Canada soon, so overseas would do. I’m fairly easy that way.

I used to have a really awesome Cowichan sweater. I have absolutely no idea what became of it. I would really love to have one again. Like this one from Granted.

Because I’m a nerd and I want to feel like a Jedi. I have no idea where one would actually purchase this sweater though, I found it on Pinterest.

This super cool purifying cutting board system from Pureliving. I’m getting a new kitchen after all.

This whole outfit put together on Polyvore, please. And somewhere fancy to go in it.

I really want this Fujifilm Instant Camera. It may be the only way I ever get pictures printed again.

Italy. What? I don’t ask for a lot. Also, I’d like to do with Adventures by Disney. Just sayin’.

Photography lessons. Is there some sort of intensive, hands on, immersion course. Preferably in Italy? That would be nice.

A day at the spa. Massages and facials, and pedicures oh my. I’ve heard Le Nordik is nice?

And world peace. Of course.

      I have heard so much good things about it and still haven’t made it. Someday.

    I’d go on the immersion photography course in Italy with you, wearing my own Cowichan sweater, but with Converse instead of heels. Nice list…I’m sighing too.

      Oh, I’d totally be sporting the converse too. Lots of walking in Italy.

      Thank you! I doubt it, but that’s really okay. Sometimes it’s just fun to window shop 😉

    I would like to have backyard chickens and a beehive, yes, I am serious. Oh and I would like to move to a really, really small town, where my backyard is a forest. Though, I think my husband will either have to get a second job or win the lottery for the last one.

    Yes. I’d like them all too. Especially world peace, and I wouldn’t even ask to have them wrapped…. 🙂 Happy Birthday!
