 Today is the perfect day for a nautical inspired challenge, it's raining outside and this outfit makes me want to jump on the nearest boat and sail away to warmer lands.  Since that's not a financially feasible plan, I'll settle for looking like a satorial sailor instead.

 Speaking of rain, my love for all living creatures (including insects), started when I was a toddler and my Mum used to bring me, my sister and the home daycare children outside after a rain shower for some dirty work.  We would save the worms who had lost their home due to the flooding; pick them up (with keys if you were a wimp or bare hands if you're a go getter like me!); dig a hole and place them next to their new and improved dirt dwelling.  To this day, when no one is looking (because helping worms is cute if you're a kid, eccentric when you're an adult), I save my squirmy friends from being squashed and meeting their worm maker sooner than they should!
