Believe it or not the basil plant that I bought a while back is still growing strong! I’m pretty proud of myself. I’ve even put it to good use in recipes.
Having fresh herbs are definitely a treat. Heather Diane illustrated a lovely guide to herbs and even suggests uses for each.
I came across Letterform Inc. this morning. Their Nourishing Notes project is full of fun food related design and typography. Here are a few of my favorite pieces.
Be sure to check out their shop for more foodie inspiration and fun.
Everybody loves a good ampersand. Here are a few of the best put together as a poster by Milk Box Prints. Quite lovely isn’t it?
Over the past couple of weeks we have been working on our best friends’ wedding invitations. Over the weekend we started printing them and we are loving how they are turning out. It’s always exciting to me to see my work go from a digital design to a printed and tactual piece of art. It really brings the design to life.
I was just going to post the entire wedding suite when we were all finished but I am so excited about it I just had to give you a sneak peek. Each piece is going to have two colors when finished. So far we have printed the main color for each. We will be printing the second colors in the evenings this week.
What do you think? Do you like it so far?
Strawberries have always been, and probably will always be, my favorite fruit. They’re so yummy. Yesterday we spent the afternoon at the Strawberry Festival in Oxnard. It was so nice spending the day outside and with our friends.
While we were there we bought lots and lots of strawberries. They were so juicy and sweet we just couldn’t help ourselves.
Then we came back to our apartment and made strawberry lemonade and strawberry shortcake with homemade whip cream.
For dinner Jake made us some hamburgers and brats on the grill. I think I am still full from yesterday! It seems we always make and eat lots of yummy food when all of us friends get together. Hmm what should we make next? Homemade Ice cream maybe?
I’ve just realized that a lot of my Finders Keepers have been camera things lately. I hope you don’t mind. There are just so many cool cameras and accessories out there. This week I found Bloom Theory. They make cute, dramatic, yet practical camera straps.
Jake and I share a camera so unfortunately I don’t think he would want to be sporting around one of these.
I also write for Dearest Nature. You can read my post here for this week.

How many of you grew up with Winnie the Pooh? I certainly did, and so will my kids. A.A. Milne created timeless characters and stories and the home where it all began is for sale. It looks as if it came right out of a storybook. If only I had $3.22 million I would buy it up and live every day in the wonderful world of Winnie the Pooh (and Tiger too).
Today Jake and I are celebrating our two year wedding anniversary! I’m sure I’ll say this every year, but I can’t believe it has already been two years. I couldn’t have wished for a more loving, caring, fun (I could go on but I won’t bore you) man to spend my life with. Sigh…I just love my man.
How was everybody’s weekend? I hope you were able to celebrate your mom. Aren’t they just the best? Jake’s parents flew out for a long weekend. It was nice having some visitors. It kind of forces us take a break from our normal weekends that we often fill up with work. Instead we went to the movies, ate lots of yummy food, hiked Vasquez Rocks, explored the Rose Bowl Flea Market and grilled steak for Mother’s day. Thanks for visiting Dad and Mom! We had a lot of fun.
