Wrapping The Week

I'm no fan of winter. Ours has been mild so far. Dare I say it? I wouldn't mind a little snow. Audrey wants to make a snowman so badly and play on the toboggan. I'd love a snowed-in Sunday to make simple soup and bake some cookies. This weekend, the only obligation is a wedding shower on Sunday. My fortune cookie last night promised, "Opportunity awaits you on Tuesday." Really? Bring it!

I'm considering a cuckoo.

John Steinbeck on Love.

Pretty post.

I love Dave Pell.

It's so beautiful it hurts my feelings.

Maine. Oh, Maine.

This is an incredible post, not just for women over 40.

Becoming a better writer.

I've listened to this Joni Mitchell song 20 times this week. Turn me on.

These Days

These days: sake tasting, birthday party, and outside play. Can't complain. Except maybe about the oranges. My husband thought the squirrels would like them, but we have had no takers.

Vintage Photobooth

 

It's been a while since I've posted any photobooth shots. I forget how many I have. When I worked at the gallery, Tim kept most of his vintage booths there, so often, I had ample time before an event to experiment. Lindsey and I have oodles from our courtship. Who doesn't love photobooths? Everyone looks great in them. Especially the vintage variety. Check out the vintage photobooth pool on flickr for some real beauties from the past.

1. With Tracy at Katy's wedding (2010)
2. With Lindsey after a long night of cooking and/or working at the gallery (2005-2006?)
3. With Katy and Lindsey (2004)
4. Just me (2006?) 

National Pie Day 2012

In honor of National Pie Day, I'm sharing some photos of favorite pies I've made and taking a look back at last year's pie post (with recipes!).

Wrapping The Week

This weekend we have two parties on Saturday. One for my cousin who is visiting from Japan, where she is stationed. We haven't seen her in over a year and she was there during all the earthquakes. We also are going to a massive birthday party for everyone in the family with January and February birthdays. I think there are almost ten of us. I foresee a lot of cake in my immediate future.

Pyrex Love.

Freedom Riders.

Rothko Cookies. Yes!

This chromatic typewriter is pretty rad.

A new take on Lionel.

Schoolhouse Cottage awesomeness.

Geez, Elise! I can't get enough of your recipes. Bread Soup!

I've had to show this baby animal cuteness to Audrey no less than half a dozen times. 

Make a Wish! Happy Weekend!
