It’s the weekend, friends! I’m excited to hang out with my hottie sister-in-law on Friday night, welcome my husband home from London {please don’t snow on Saturday night} and make Valentines at Spacecraft on Sunday with Remy & Alexa. In the meantime, I am daydreaming about a vintage Mercedes that would be perfect for a weekend drive. In fact, I have been for the last 8 years or so. Not in this weather of course, but summers by the shore…that sounds like a plan. Even better though – have you heard about converting Mercedes diesel models from the late 70′s onward so that they can run off of vegetable oil? How often do classic style and sustainability align like that? Now, if only I can find the kind of seller who has a mint convertible or coupe in a California {rust free} garage and would like to sell it to a sweet gal like me for a song.
Happy weekend!

FABUULOUS – along with everything else, you and I have the same taste in cars as well!! And I also love the gorgeous oufit!! I have a little surprise along this vein you’ll love that I’ll be unveiling sometimes closer to spring!
Thanks!
Oh wow, I am jealous already of what could be your potential surprise!
Okay, so you know I love driving the green car, but I can’t fight wanting this one!!! I’ll have to find a diesel version and convert the engine to bio ;)
I know! I can’t fight it either, and I keep seeing them all over the place lately.
