Cucumber Creature - $21 Million


Browsing through eBay, I found this misshaped cucumber for sale. The shape of the cucumber itself isn't too peculiar, it's the pricing of the item that puzzles me. I get that it's a joke, but why not sell it at a more affordable price and take the chances of making some money on it. I could see someone maybe paying $50, not $21 million. But who knows. If someone did buy it for $21 million, the seller would be one lucky guy!

NMCA Muscle Car Nationals at Milan Dragway


Dan and I are planning to attend Milan Dragway's 5th annual NMCA Muscle Car Nationals either Saturday or Sunday. Last year was my first time going and I'm excited to go again this year. It's a lot of fun, so if you're in the area and looking for some entertainment this weekend come on out. You can get free spectator's ticket here (print as many as you need), and if you want a pit pass it's only $10. The pit area has a lot more action and a neat car show. The gates open at noon, so grab an early lunch and get out here!

Never been to Milan before? Map out directions from your house to:

10860 Plank Rd.
Milan, Mi 48160

If you're unable to make it out to the event, follow me on Twitter @jasmineward.
I'll be posting pictures and possibly some videos. :)

Here are some great shirts that would be perfect to wear to Milan. It's too late to order them for this weekend, but you can get them right now for another day and take $5 off by using the coupon code SAYITSHIRTS at the checkout. And don't forget you can get them shipped for free.

Pick Your Own Fruit and Veggie Farms


Another Squidoo lens hot off the press! This lens helps you find local "pick your own" farms. Who doesn't enjoy a fresh crisp apple right from the tree or a juicy tomato off the vine? Mmmmm. There is so much fresh produce right in your area that you probably didn't even know about. And there are plenty of benefits to shopping for produce at your local markets: it's healthier, it tastes better, keeps your local farmers in business and it's a fun activity for the family.

Selling My Clothes

Trying to get rid of some clothes and get some extra cash. I put up an ad for my area on Craigslist, but I will ship the shirts anywhere, buyer pays shipping.

The shirts I'm selling are:
Brown Arizona ribbed t-shirt from JCPenny, medium. $5
Blue Arizona ribbed t-shirt from JCPenny, medium. $5
Brown plaid Girl Krazy t-shirt from either JCPenny or Kohl's, large. $5
Blue plaid Mossimo t-shirt from Target, large. $5


All shirts are from the Juniors department and are in great condition, I just don't wear them anymore. Shirts come from a nonsmoking home. I'll accept payments via PayPal or personal check.










Abortion Protest on Woodward

Dan and I went out earlier this evening to cruise down Woodward for the Dream Cruise. There were a lot of cool cars, lots of people, and nice weather after the storm had passed. You can imagine my disgust and shock when as we're driving down the road, I look out my window and see two men standing at the corner protesting abortion with huge signs with photos of aborted babies. I'm for freedom of speech and everything, but seriously... Protesting abortion at a family event? Isn't that a little extreme? There are tons of little kids trying to enjoy all of the cars, and they have to see that? I'm not a child, and I was traumatized. I don't want to see that. Go protest in front of an abortion clinic, not in front of the Pearle Vision on Woodward Ave. I did a Google maps search of the Pearle Vision there, and there's actually a photo of a protester there from a previous year.


I'm just really disappointed to have seen this. It was unexpected and very unnecessary. I'll know to avoid that area next year.

New at Jasmine's Merch: Rusted Horseshoes

Dan and I went over to a historical site earlier today that's not too far from where we live so I could take some photos. I just finished designing products with one of my favorite photos from the day.

The photo is of a couple horseshoes that are hanging on the door of an old farmhouse. Above is the original photo. I also edited it and changed the colors so that my customers have a variety to choose from. The photo is available on products in:

Black and White
Sepia

Thermal
I think the black and white version is my favorite. I'll have some new stuff in my shop from today's photos within the next week or so. You can see all of the available products with this photo here.

It's been awhile since I've been out photographing. Dan and I are driving down to Georgia in a few weeks. I'm looking forward to it, and I hope it will give me a chance to get a bunch of new photos. Thanks for stopping by to see what's new!
