Some People

I was busy in the store on Friday. Rearranging new furniture, filling in holes where large items have sold, helping customers with sales and pricing a bunch of new items kept me busy, busy, busy. LT was helping me with a project in the back so I also had my 2 little ones helping me rearrange.

As I was helping one customer, another came in and had some questions and needed help with some things. Another needed measurements on a piece of furniture. I was running around like a chicken with its head cut off trying to get everything done. Things finally settled down a little and I was ringing up a sale for the last customers in the shop. We made small talk about her credit card and airline miles when I realized the customer was familiar. She mentioned she travelled to Canada frequently.

I looked at the name on the card, then looked up at her in recognition. "Are you the woman from the blog....? The Noisy Plume."

Jillian Lukiwski has the most beautiful blog ever. I have been following it for a while because she has such a way with words and is able to verbalize things that are in my heart but I would never find a way to express. (That last akward sentence for example). Her photography is amazing. I felt like I was meeting a celebrity and probably went on and on too long about it by the way she blushed.

So, I was reading Jillian's blog today and found the best quote ever. This woman really has a way with words. She was commenting about her beautiful garden...

"IN THE CABBAGE PATCH
I THOUGHT TO MYSELF:
PEOPLE ARE A LOT LIKE CABBAGES SOME ARE PLUMP AND ROUND AND LOVELY AND OTHERS HAVE WORMS IN THEIR HEARTS"

I'm sure she has no idea, but Jillian has instantly made a fan for life.
