Top 2 Tuesday

The Undomestic Momma hosts Top 2 Tuesday each week. I don't believe I've ever participated before, but I thought this one would be fun - pick your top 2 baby names.


Some of you may be pondering my choice in participating since Mr. Potts & I won't be creating any little potts or pans (I made a funny, you can laugh, I did!). Even though little ones of our own won't be gracing our household doesn't mean that I can't have favorite baby names.

So, if we were ever to have a little girl munchkin, she would be named Katherine Ann. Katherine is his grandmother's middle name & Ann is my middle name passed down from my mom.

I couldn't go with a name after my grandmother - Gertrude anyone? Gert? Gertie? Trudie? Probably not, huh?

If there were ever a little boy munchkin, he would be named Preston Michael. Michael because it is a good name & Preston was my grandfather's middle name (we'd HAVE to go with the middle since his first name was Harvey). Plus, if we went that route, he'd totally be a PIMP because his initials would be PMP.

Yep, I just went there. I'm a dork.

On a serious side note, though, what was it with the naming of that generation? I also had an aunt Lucille & an uncle Horace!

But it is OK - remember - not procreating!

So if any of you love these names, please feel free to take them & use them. If you choose Gertrude or Harvey, however, I'm not taking the blame!

Top Two Tuesday!

Top Two Tuesday is hosted by Taylor over at the undomestic momma and has looked like fun over the past few weeks. This week's topic is Top Two Favorite Stores.


When I started thinking about this, my mind went to food. I started thinking about the specialty shops that I love to browse for foods - Whole Foods and my local Farmer's Markets and on the other end of the spectrum, Crate & Barrel, Williams-Sonoma, etc.

Then I thought I could go towards shopping - you know: clothes, makeup, shoes, etc. I could lean towards small, local boutiques or big sprawling super stores.

Choices!!

I had a bit of a rough time (can you tell I can't make decisions??) but finally narrowed it down to these two as my favorite stores to shop at:

Nordstrom

I absolutely love that I can go there for pretty dresses, jeans, makeup, unbelieveable handbags, fabulous shoes & have coffee once I'm done shopping!


Williams-Sonoma

I love the selection of cookware and bakeware - a girl can dream of uber nice pots & pans without being able to afford them. *Sigh*

I love the appliances & the gadgets. I love the food selections (HELLO Sprinkles cupcakes to go into a bridal shower gift!) & the table linens.

I could spend days in there!

Thankfully our Williams-Sonoma is very close to our Nordstrom. Fulfilling wishes a few at a time.
