Today is the first day in two weeks that I have been home during the day for work. Last week I worked with Jake on his show Who Knew that he animates for. It was nice being with him during the day. But today I am home which will give me a chance to catch up on some work. I can’t say …
Proud Aunt and Uncle
This past week Jake and I got to spend a lot of time with our niece and nephew. It was actually the first time we got to meet our nephew, Adrian since he was just born a few months ago. We don’t get to see them that often so I thought I should take this opportunity to show them off …
Morning Brew: Orange Grove Picnic
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 …
Finder’s Keepers: Anthropologie for Kids
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 …
Rental Sweet Rental
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 …
Finder’s Keepers: Log Bowls
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 …
Our Herb Garden
I finally decided to take the plunge and try growing my own herb garden. So over the weekend Jake and I picked out some herbs and planted them in a pot. I really wanted rosemary and basil, but the lady in the garden area told me I couldn’t grow those together. For now I just have chives and oregano. We set them on the ledge …
Finders Keepers: Baby Bullet
Now before I say anything, let me just clarify: Jake and I are not having babies anytime soon. Although they would be cute. If we were though, this would be top on my list of must have items. Jake and I usually spend Saturday mornings drinking our coffee out in the living room while watching a little tv to help us wake up. …
Finders Keepers: Prehistoric Planters
Source: Plaid Pigeon I discovered these a few days after my friend Erika’s birthday. She’s crazy about dinosaurs so I was a little disappointed I missed out on the perfect occasion to give her one. I think she would have loved these. I know I do. Plaid Pigeon is constantly selling out of these planters. They are in pretty high demand and it is just run by a husband …
Morning Brew: Herb Garden
Both our parents have gardens. In the following months they will be able to enjoy all kinds of fresh produce. And the worst part is that Jake and I don’t even live near by to help take all the extras off their hands. All this to say that, I wish I had a garden. I would even settle for an herb garden. …
