Hello my loves. I am off to The Ace Hotel in Palm Springs for the weekend. I am bringing three cameras. Is that too many? I want to spend the weekend taking pictures and sitting by the pool. It's supposed to be in the 90's! Yikes, that's hot! I think this trip will produce some fun photos, so make sure to check back next week.

On another note, I was checking out the Z Gallerie website yesterday and stumbled apon something that excited me way too much...They now carry that gorgeous White Resin Deer Head from my post "The Year of the Deer" in a smaller 16" size for $49.95! Yeah, I have to have it.

I started finding all kinds of other cute home accessories on their site, so I thought I would share the love...

Not only this year, but the last several years I have been seeing taxidermy and faux deer heads everywhere. Like this one from Zgallerie $249.95...

I must admit I kind of love them. What is it about them? I am an animal lover and I don't even eat most meat! When did this obsession begin?

Maybe it was that night at Freeman's Restaurant in NYC...It was just so cozy and cool and delicious. Maybe it was the first time I laid eyes on the wallpaper at The Village Idiot in Los Angeles, my neighborhood gastropub...

I wouldn't feel right about having real taxidermy in my house, but the "faux" taxidermy, now that I can get behind. I am loving these tongue and cheek versions...
