You’d think magic would be easy to find in these woods, but it’s proving harder than I thought. With so much going on, I was only able to snatch a few moments of hammock peace times. Good energy welcome. I’ll be back soon.

It’s been about 2 years since my hair was this short, and I figured it was a good time for it – right before spending 2 weeks in the woods! I’m hoping the curls chill out a little & I need to find some better styling products, but I like it a lot. I’m a [...]
I’ve been missing pizza like crazy so I asked Holly if she’d cook me a gluten free version of her famous pizzas. Yes, I’m spoiled by my friends – Holly made my wedding cakes and they were fa-an-cy. (Bay Area readers, she’s just started teaching cooking – she’ll come to you and give classes – [...]
Or rather, the case against DIY instructions. I’ve noticed a lot of posts lately like “make a clutch by folding fabric into thirds”, or “make a poncho by cutting a hole in fabric” or “make a ponytail by putting your hair into a ponytail” – whole sites, even, dedicated to instructions that seem completely redundant [...]
I’m sorry for all the super short posts lately, but things and projects are brewing and it’s taking up all my time! Between extra long days at work and hopefully putting some long term life goals into place, there’s been no time for me-work! I have a list of sewing projects and menu-recipes to try [...]
Some of my favorite ladies in bloglandia (& real life!) are celebrating birthdays today. Jen from Honey Kennedy: What would I do without this lady to talk to? Keeping it sane and fancy all at once. Karie from Shelter Protects You: Karie is back from Renegade & ready to keep tearing things up. I need [...]
I went shopping for prizes for some birthdays coming up, and I don’t know if the rare Bay Area heat made me delirious or what, but I accidentally came home with this scent for me. I couldn’t decide between that and this, ideally both and worn together. Delicious. Jaune smells like a childhood moment I [...]
Happy Father’s Day! My dad is my idol & we’re 2 peas in a pod, something my husband never lets me forget. The man did dance a jig as we pulled out of his driveway en route to our honeymoon, but I know he can’t wait to have me back in Vermont. Top 3 Dad [...]
Breakfast at Cafe Gratitude with Kate, a quick stop to Castle in the Air & a quick hi to the very crafty Ulla, gallery show and talk at Kala. Inspired by Binh Danh’s chlorophyll prints. Thinking a lot about collecting information & experiences. Have we moved from documenting the present as an archival or memorial process to [...]
We got a tiny ice cream maker for our wedding, and though it only makes 2 servings and they’re usually very soft, I can’t resist experimenting with it when my sweet cravings make me crazy. For this one: 2 yellow nectarines, 1 tbsp maple syrup (more if you like sweeter) & a dash of lemon [...]
Beach bound with the perfect Victorian mystery novel. Finds on the way: a white porcelain vase, handprinted fabric in dusty pink, snowy antique tablecloths and napkins, sunshine & wisping fog, winding roads. p.s. are you on Instagram? Find me there!
