The economy, handbags, cookies, and why I hate TSA.

In 2006 Ron Paul's economic advisor, Peter Schiff, foretold our current economic woes in this interview. Art Laffer owes him a penny, me thinks. I also came across a great Ron Paul quote about the economy on Heidi's blog the other day: "We have to understand that an economic correction needs to take place and the only way out of the coming recession is to go through it. Efforts to avoid it can only prolong it."

My friend, Jessica, has recently founded Chickiva Handbags. She has some really adorable stuff up. So go and check out the online gallery and shop.

I'm making ginger molasses cookies for church potluck tomorrow.

Miranda came home to me! This makes me happy. Unfortunately, she was returned to me with her case locked. This does not make me happy. I can't find my key anywhere... in fact, I'm pretty sure it's inside the case. I've never locked it before, so I'm not sure what to do about that. I'll have to see if I can get my brother to pick the lock. I tried, but I'm hopelessly inept about such things, apparently.
