The Desk Clerk's Day Off sounds like a really good indie flick or a super annoying cartoon.  As with most things in life, my story probably falls somewhere in the middle.

Not long ago, I was dressed for a Zoom meeting when the husband said I looked like a Hawaii hotel clerk.  To be fair, I was behind my laptop at the time, and he followed it up by saying I looked very cute.  It was enough to make me want to capture this "throwaway" outfit -- or perhaps I should say half an outfit, because the bottom portion of my meeting attire is always pajama pants.  So after I logged off for the day, we took pics against this tranquil blue backdrop.  And yes, I'm closing my eyes in the last one to show off my not-quite-new mint e.l.f. eyeshadow: 

  

As for the hibiscus pics, they're from when we lived in Brigantine.  I must've known that I'd eventually need them for a tropical shirt shoot!

Finally, if I never know what the husband is going to say, then I definitely never know what he's going to bring home.  Check out these white plums and canary fruit he picked up yesterday:

He stylishly staged them on one of his handmade cutting boards.  Because artsy-craftsy DIY -- and self promotion -- run in this family! 

Oh man, maybe this is a cartoon after all.
