What a Week!
This has been one crazy week here at FTRB headquarters! If you’re having any kind of problems subscribing to my blog, not seeing images, or the RSS feeds, please don’t tell me. Kidding. You should tell me. Sheesh, I cannot wait to turn the computer off for the weekend. (Yeah right, we’ll see if that happens.)
Well, in all the hoopla, I didn’t get a chance mention two other places where I made an appearance this week:

First, my monthly post at Seattle Homes & Lifestyles is all about a new collection I’m starting. I hinted at it in yesterday’s post.

Second, I shared one of my prized possessions at Rearranged Design as part of Ana’s series called “Things We Love.”
And with that, I will leave you for the weekend. May it be free of headaches and idiots for all of us. Thank you all again for all of your support this week and don’t forget about the “What’s Your Style in One Picture Challenge III.” See you Monday!

but i can! have a lovely weekend!

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but photos are still not loading on your main page or in the RSS feed using Google Reader. I hope you find the solutions to your tech problems
I love the blog, keep up the good work!
Oooh Ally, relax and have a nice weekend xoxo
That last comment sounded a bit strange, I meant have a relaxing weekend and don’t think about all that happened

The tea towels are fantastic. I have been eying some hand painted ones as well but will be too afraid to use them!
Have a good and restful weekend. Carol

Awesome tea towels Ally! And thanks for stopping by my blog. I lived in Seattle for 22 years before moving back to India….and I miss it so. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Seattle. I'll be visiting Seattle this fall and am so looking forward to it! Love your blog as well as your posts in Seattle Lifestyle!
Hi Ally
Well I am sorry to hear about your blog thieves.. you know I had the same thing last year.. whole posts stolen and no link to my own blog.. very discouraging.. and they changed the words around a little and basically made it incomprehensible but with my name attached [sans le link]. idiots!!
I just popped over to the site you mentioned. and this current post is up their.. with your copyright notice also.. but still no link to your site!! unbelievable!!! Good luck with it all and try to ignore the idiots and have a great weekend… xx Julie
.-= Julie´s last post ..Dear Universe – Good Home Required by SWF =-.
Can't believe the idiots that are stealing from you. Hope you can get the blog host to shut them down for good!
How exciting about your new collection. Can't wait to hear more. Will follow your link and read on.
Happy weekend to you and I hope you can block the bad energy from the thieves in Thailand. They are not worth the energy. Try to ignore them if possible. xx
Big hug
x Charlotta

that's fun to start a collection, for me i suppose it's sea glass. i'm drawn to retro cameras too but only have one so far
that does suck about that site stealing right from under your nose, some people just need to get a life of their own you know? really….:)
.-= robin pulsifer´s last post ..well rounded. crazy beautiful. =-.
I can see everything! Yeah! Love the patterns…can't wait to see what follows.
Have a restful weekend, and "shut 'er down".
Have a happy weekend… don't let the idiots get you down!
(Think of it like this: ypur posts are so completely awesome that people can't resist trying to pass them off as their own! Small consolation, I know!)

Geesh, I can't believe how frequently I have been hearing about content being copied straight off of people's blogs! It scares me!!
I hope it all gets worked out.
PS. I have definitely tuned in to this seasons Sarah's House, I love it!

Hi Ally! I'm so sorry for all the tech headaches!!! Just had to say hello tonight from the Left Bank!!! We are winding down Day 2 in the City of Lights — so far, spectacular! Enjoy the weekend off…look forward to seeing you back where you belong on Monday! xo Elizabeth
