part of that world

“A mermaid found a swimming lad,
Picked him for her own,
Pressed her body to his body,
Laughed; and plunging down
Forgot in cruel happiness
That even lovers drown.”
William Butler Yeats 


Ever since I first saw this adorable Ralph Burch Mermaid Martini print I have been slightly obsessed with it.

She is so gosh darn cute only now have I realized I might like to try a Dry Mermaid Martini. So now for the weekend I have a goal, it sounds like I might not like it, but it has 'Mermaid' in the name so it's at least worth a try. I can just picture myself thinking I'm all fabulous ordering this and then having to explain to the bartender what it is.

Cheers!

i LOVE the Mermaid Martini! i actually have tried to find an antique print and have it framed for the bar down the shore (you know how Mama Can't Be Wrong LOOOOVES her mermaids). but i've only been able to find the mass produced options on allposters.com.

LOVE the new blog layout!!
