A great break in the doll-drums of winter is the appearance of tangerines! Mom's tangerines start to pop up around mid-January. She has 3 small trees so, naturally there are tangerines everywhere...
Petit pics from our trip to Africa. These cute little ones are terns (I don't know what kind, but I'll find out and let you know) that were using our ship as a rest stop. Such little cuties, I love...

So, here's a little update on the kitchen. The guys were pulling things down faster than I could take pictures, so unfortunately I missed some of the demo. That's the breaks when you have to work...
Traveling through Africa's north west coast at the moment {oh, la la}. Thought I'd drop in and say hiya and give you all a peek at a view of Marrakech. Such a crazy, chaotic and beautifully exotic...
So, as I mentioned before, my cute little kitchen is a gonner. Dunzo. Finished. Stuck in 1952 no more, it is getting a serious makeover to bring it into the 21st century {of course, classically and...
One thing is for sure: Renovation is seriously dusty. .
My house has the coolest barrel ceilings. Living and dining rooms! These ceilings make the place seem soooo huge, and really put the focus on my {even more awesome} windows. What's not awesome is...
Recently acquired & totally crushing on: Jacques & Gilles {top} and Bombshell Pro {bottom}. A great handwritten quality to them. They look fairly similar, one is a bit more formal than the other,...
Getting started with a renovation is a little daunting. Exciting, but daunting. Provided you are prepared for the emotional and financial stress, it takes a little simmering time to get a good idea...
So, I've been a total slacker in posting intervals. Things have been super crazy for me and my family recently. As I'm sure you all experienced at least a few times in your life, life has a way of...
I'm calling it out {and since I'm obv already obsessed with them}. Arrows are taking over. Just as whales & owls took over mustaches & birds, arrows are all over the place. Bloggers have been...
Talk about your silver lining! I took this outside my office the other day. I love Fall weather... le sigh I think I need to paint this... or commission someone... like my friend James Willis....
Today marks, officially, the first time I've been jealous of Android phones. I just learned of something called Field Trip. Developed by the folks at Google, it's exactly what I was trying to...

This episode of Mom's Garden is brought to you by monarch butterflies and the milkweed plant! {hooray!}When it comes to monarchs and milkweed, think: "If you plant it, they will come". {cue Kevin...
Get excited! New section! I give you... drum roll.... Lorem Ipsum! **wimpy ta-da sound** It's basically an outlet for me to do a bit of simple design and show off typefaces that I'm obsessing over....
This Sunday was an amazingly beautiful day. My family and I were lucky enough to enjoy it up in Los Olivos/Solvang area with Jim Denevan & the folks of Outstanding in the Field. If youve never...
As is with fashion, styles swing from one end of the spectrum to the next. Mini-skirt in the summer, maxi-skirt in the fall. Skinny jeans in the winter, palazzo pants in the summer. Tunic, crop...
The other day, I went with Mom to a rose pruning workshop at Rogers Gardens in Newport Beach. Apparently, in Southern California, now is the time to start chopping back your roses. In our area, it...

Grey is the new black. Pearls are the new diamonds. Etcetera, etcetera. Well, Im calling it: Hand pieces are the new two-finger rings. Ive been seeing these things pop up a bunch lately... it...
Just letting you all know, I have started a Twitter account. I still dont really get what the point is {aside from keeping up with Food Truck locations}, I have no idea how to use it nor why I...
This post is kind of a dual Adventure-slash-bake project. I am an uber fan of Carmela Ice Cream here in Pasadena. And, I mean uber. In my dreams I have one of each flavor in my freezer at all...
Snap! The Holidays are upon us. For such a seemingly cheerful time of year, it sure does cause quite a ruckus, yes? {sigh} Roll with the punches, I suppose. Southern California is seriously lucky...
