Sorry we didn’t post at all last week. Jake and I had a family emergency and had to make an unexpected trip to Colorado and we just got back last night. Being home made me miss the quaintness of a smaller town where you can have lovely picnics like this one. Out here in California a lot of people have …
Source: Anthropologie To my delight, I just discovered that Anthropologie has children’s items. Anthropologie is one of my favorite shops, although I mostly just look and don’t buy. They can be pretty pricey. I like to say there is nothing wrong with a little eye candy. Surprisingly though most of their children’s items are pretty affordable. My favorite are the wooden alphabet blocks. I had some …
Last weekend I fulfilled one of my lifetime goals: seeing “Weird Al” Yankovic in concert. I know that sounds really strange and hard for most people to relate to, but his music has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember listening to music. My oldest brother, who introduced Weird Al to me when …
Source: Judy the Jazz Cat Our first apartment lease is coming to an end. We got a letter in the mail a few days ago from management that so kindly told us, if we don’t tell them we are moving in the next few weeks that our lease will automatically be renewed for another year. Jake and I weren’t planing on moving …
I like Summer. It’s not my favorite season, but it does seem to be the season where everyone travels. Kids are out of school and the sun is out. Don’t these posters make you want to visit these places? They remind me of those vintage postcards you could find in any souvenir shop, but with a better, more thought out design. I picked out …
Source: Dara Quesada I hope you’re ready, because it’s time for a new week. Did you have a good weekend? Jake and I went on a date Friday evening. First we walked to the Farmer’s Market for dinner and then we went and saw Super 8 at the theatre. It was fantastic (loud, but fantastic). We both highly recommend it, but watch …
Source: Loyal Loot Aren’t these just amazing? I love the rough wood texture against the smooth and shiny bright colors. These bowls are made from reclaimed wood logs gathered by hand in Alberta by Loyal Loot. I’m sure there is a lot of precise time and effort put it to each of these bowls, but I can’t help but think, I would like to try making …
The first time I saw the ocean was a couple years back. I had to travel all the way across the pond to England to see the ocean for the first time. I was so excited. I could even taste the salt in the wind. It was big, blue and beautiful. Now I live only a few miles from the ocean …
You know that plack you see hanging in everyone’s house? The one that says “Home is where the heart is”. Well I think that quote has run it’s course. It’s kind of like when you have too much of a good thing. Here is a quote to replace it. I like this version better anyway. It’s clever, kind of corny, but fun. Source: …
Source: Pink Orchid_Too For a while now, I’ve been saying I want to write a children’s book. There is just something about children’s books that are so sweet and innocent. As a kid I remember crawling into my parents’ bed and my parents reading to me. Those are some of my sweetest memories. Source: Left: Olivia the Piglet; Right: The Heart …
