Well look at that. I think I figured out how to turn a knitting pattern into a PDF file (assuming it works for you all!). As I mentioned in my last post I recently acquired a pretty hefty stack of vi...
Hey friends! Sorry for the little unannounced break, my computer quit turning on (well that’s not entirely true, it would turn on after about 27 tries and multiple expletives) and had to be rep...
Sometimes you have to go back to an estate sale, because there is something there that you can’t stop thinking about. Luckily for me, this pretty guy was still waiting for me to take him home f...
Today was an epic estate sale-ing day. I went to two sales, the first far better than the second. The first was over 30 minutes away, and I wanted to get there first thing because I saw a picture of ...
Lately I have been checking Craigslist every morning for estate sales. This morning I was beyond delighted when I learned of a monthly antiques and collectibles show going on just a few miles from my...
On Friday my dear sweet girl turned one. This post is entirely for her. I hope that someday down the line she will read this and know how much joy she brings to my life. Dearest Lucy, What a year thi...
Lucy turned one last Friday. I had been wanting to have a post up about her special day, but quite honestly the words have not come to me yet. Saturday we had a party to celebrate this little lady. T...
Top: Thrifted Skirt: Frock You, San Diego Shoes: Thrifted I almost got rid of this blouse last week when I was clearing out the closet. I have always loved it, but have never found quite the right &#...

Yesterday’s thrift finds. 1. Two platters. First unmarked (anyone know what it is?), second Franciscan Starburst 2. Vintage 60′s dress 3. Globe! I must say, I have had quite a bit of luck...
Dress: Bubblepipe Vintage Shoes: Thrifted Bakelite: Flashbacks, San Diego & WoldHeart I am obsessed with this dress. I showed it to Russ before I bought it and he said, “don’t you hav...
I have been known to get messages from the thrift stores. I don’t know how to describe it other than a strong urge or pull to go to one particular store, where I always score big. These differ ...
The image above, one that has been ingrained in my brain since I was a little girl. I won’t go in to how much I love The Parent Trap in this post, and I will only say that the ranch house in th...
I am in the midst of a great wardrobe makeover. The last few days have been emotional. It seems so silly to say, but I am attached to my clothes, all of them, even the ones that don’t fit. I us...
If you follow me on twitter or instagram (username misscedar for new ig-ers), you probably already heard plenty about my latest thrift find–my new cypress knee! I have been slightly obsessed wi...
Feeding babies. For something that sounds like it should be so simple, I had no idea just how complicated it could be. One day baby loves everything you put in front of her. The next day, no vegetabl...
Dress: Pretty Little World Vintage Shoes: Thrifted Glasses: Gift Bracelet: Larkinbird Vintage Lucy’s outfit Dress: Thrifted Pants: Old Navy Shoes: Thrifted I just got this dress last week, and ...
In three very short weeks this sweet girl will be celebrating her first birthday. Where has the time gone? My baby is not such a baby anymore. Sure, her stature is small, but she walks and talks. May...
Easter is one of those holidays where after you have grown it really isn’t any fun. The highlight of the Easters in my early 20s was the Easter ham my grandma used to prepare. I love ham. Since...
Vintage, duh. This afternoon we went to the Huge Frocking Sale at my favorite vintage shop, Frock You. Neither Russ nor I got anything for ourselves, but we did find that sweet little dress for Lucy ...
I love these moments, the crying and all. Also, after looking at these pictures I think I am finally convinced that Lucy will be a redhead.
This and this. I have been hard at work knitting. I have started many projects and finished few. The failures, as frustrating as they may be, I am taking as a learning opportunity, and pushing right ...

I love going to my aunt and uncle’s house for many reason, but mainly for the avocados and the furry friends. (love you Aunt Kate!)
…making laundry detergent. (I followed this recipe)
Today we got out of the house to enjoy the beautiful weather, we headed to some trails near our house. Lucy had a wonderful time exploring nature; picking up leaves and rocks, feeling the bark on tre...
Spring, finally. I know I have no right to complain seeing that we have some of the most mild winters in all the land, but really, the change of season brings so much joy. The vegetables are growing,...
Russ and I were talking about stuffed peppers recently. I for one had never had a stuffed pepper, he had, but had horrifying memories of a green bell pepper filled with ground beef and nothing more. ...
Peanut butter and banana sandwich for Russ’ lunch. Twins! Newly thrifted mug. Egg and potato breakfast burrito. Chilli with skillet cornbread. A sweet little ...
Last night I finished the top I was knitting for Lucy. This is major. It is my first (completed) knitted article of clothing, and really the only thing I have ever finished other than a few measly ...
