What a whirlwind weekend. I thrifted some much needed winter wear, all in ivory strangely enough. We went to IKEA, which I hadnt been to in years. Mostly, Im very excited to say I walked away with wo...
My oh my. The weeks are just flying by and I hardly notice it. I woke up with an awful neck ache. The kind where youve lost about 75% of your mobility. So, forgive the unenthused face of mine. Im act...
Fall is creeping in. Im more excited for Halloween than usual, despite having much less time to actually take part in the festivities. The flea market was rained out, so I wound up digging in $1 bins...
Porter Mills Studios in Beverly had an open house yesterday. Even though I was very sick I went to show my support. Even though its just the tail end of a song, Im really glad I got Lillie dancing on...

In light of recent internet ongoings, involving a pal of mine and her special day, I wanted to rise above all of the muck to find some lightness and inspiration. I dont usually say much here, but its...
We went to a little folk festival over the weekend, with our banjo-playin and fiddle-playin friends, and it was pretty much the best weekend I could have hoped for. The festival is in the middle of t...
Just a quick little post to say I had the most wonderful Fourth of July, thanks to some incredible friends. I was hoping to get portraits in front of my decrepit 48-star flag, but thunderstorms quick...
Im a big fan of Steve Martin. Im not going to lie to you, its mostly because hes the king of banjo. Im pretty glad that I finally got around to watching The Jerk, because even though its made and set...
Ive been going through so many changes lately in my life. New friends, new memories, new outlook, new hobbies, new favorite places. One of the best has been moving. Dont get me wrong, we know our for...
Ive been meaning for a while to share with you all that Anja of Clever Nettle and I have gotten together to sell some vintage goods! For the past, oh I dont know, three years Id say, Ive been collect...
Oddly enough, were surrounded by drive-in theaters, but theyre all one to two hours away, so its not as often as Id like that we go. Its one of my favorite things to do, ever since I was little and g...

I think I implied that I was going to make a giant post about moving next. Well, that was the plan, but thats for tomorrow. Today I just wanted to let you know about a sweet young gal named Dakota wh...
Just some inspiring things to tide you over until I write all about moving in a week! A lot of excitement and dread is to follow. But, it explains why I am feeling so newly inspired.

Ive noticed this habit that Ive been slipping into. Whenever I find something new, I just cant wait to share it. But, then I bring it home, I stash it away, and I think Ill have some better time to s...
Its rare that I ever get to see really old family photos. Rather, Im usually passed down poorly scanned, resized, resized again, then printed family photos that look like junk. The story goes that my...
So, I had the most wonderful birthday party. It might even be the best Ive ever had. Although, my 12th birthday at Pizzarama was pretty impecable, this one also ended with acquiring cheap toys and ca...
Ive been admiring Civil War photography for a few days now. Its hard not to romanticize a war that yielded such beautiful photographs, handsome men, and charming camps. Come to think of it, the Libra...

I had completely forgotten to take pictures of the sweetest care package I received from Anabela and Caroline, containing a Dream Cats calendar and little kitty hot pads. It really takes me back when...
