First Snow

We got our first real snow tonight.  It really is beautiful.
I’ll take better pictures during the day but Ash is SO excited! This is his absolute favorite time of year.

This is the kind of thing that makes me excited to watch bad movies while wrapped in a blanket, sipping on a hot chocolate. Mmm.
What are [...]

It’s a whale of a tale

Heads up, I won my round for ShirtPrize!  Now we just need to show up en masse the first week of October and vote the poo out of my design.
Moving on.  This past weekend was my dear friend Jessica’s birthday! And boy do I love when my friends come to visit.  We had a lovely [...]

Urge to Splurge Subdued

Let’s do a comparitive shopping analysis, shall we?
This gorgeous boot is made by Miz Mooz, I found it at Endless.com (btw…Check that store out) when searching for some leathery riding boots for fall.  Granted, I was looking in the summer because of a recent fascination with them, but still.  I was in love.
Now, these boots [...]

I can explain, I swear

Meet Hidalgo, the newest member of our bike family.
Now, I know what you’re thinking, how many bikes do they need? Well, I need one. And John needs one. And our guests could use at least one.
That’s where this little feller comes in.  I’m not sure why, but I got it in my head that a [...]

Oh, etsy.

When I was younger, my mom had this ugly brown bowl.  I mean….I hated it. Why would you want to eat out of something brown? That was my logic as a kid.
Well, as it turns out, my mom was onto something with that brown bowl.  It was Pyrex and it was classic and I would [...]

Pure Bliss

If there were a bike made specially for me, I’m almost certain it would be the Pashley Sonnet Bliss (or the pure, I’m not sure yet).
Either way, it’s utterly beautiful.  I haven’t seen a more perfect color combination like this before.  Cream and claret they call it.  Heaven is another good name I came up [...]

I want to go to there….again

I’m not sure if you know this, but I have a fairly addictive personality.
What I mean to say is that I get really into things and then I go all out with them.  It’s why I refuse to smoke or do drugs.  Because I’d become addicted. Fast.
Well, about a week ago, mister and I went [...]

Me Want Cookie

I’m not one to ignore an urge to bake. So when I noticed a certain hankering for chocolate chip cookies the other day I knew I had to work out a way to make some a.s.a.p.
By “work out a way to make some” I mean…buy some stinking eggs.
And that’s just what I did on [...]

Old is the new…new…

Lately, I’ve been completely fascinated by all things old timey.  (Yes, old timey is a phrase now).
I love my bike more than most other things I own.  It’s classic and beautiful with it’s black frame (that matches everything) and adorable wicker basket (for carrying flowers and food).   My recent obsession with old bikes has got [...]

On the radio…ah oh

Every morning, during my 20 minute drive to work, I tune into a local radio station for some unknown reason.  I suppose the best reason I can supply is that I need to hear traffic reports and that’s the only station that I know will give one right away when I get on the road.
Now, [...]
