spirit animals

Took a trip out the flea market the Americans call Ismailova today. For Mosvites, the metro stop closest to the flea market is Ismailova, and the market itself is the vernisage, which also means art opening, so as usual, I'm confused.

While I was there, I can't BELIEVE I didn't buy this taxidermied hedgehog! Look at how he looks at you out of the corner of his eye! I think he might be my spirit animal.

Based on Aleen's good taste, we did buy these platters from Usbekistan. They are a little Davis hippy, but I love them. I love them so much I think my spirt animal is a blue flower. Or dishes.

Ana says her spirit animal is the wolf, but in an former life she was a an octopus. Nina says her spirit animal is either the Siberian tiger or a frog. What's yours?

    It was a mistake to pass on Mr. Jezko. But the plates were an excellent choice. I have many, and I never get tired of them. You can’t have too many of those Uzbek plates.
    I think my spirit animal is the fox. I see them often here.

    My spirit animal is the cat, of course. The North American moutain lion, that is. Meow!
