I’ve got a whole slew of lovelies to share today, so let’s get right to it! I am completely over the moon about this super pretty number pinata how-to from Oh Happy Day! There’s a birthday celebration coming up in our house next month. I’ll get to try it out soon! I think it would [...]
I’m not a big tea drinker but I do like making iced tea. And I like making jasmine tea best because it smells like drinkable flowers. We picked up a new packet of tea bags this weekend. Aren’t they pretty?
Happy Friday! Don’t you love the feeling of freedom that Friday brings each week? I do! I have a few little housekeeping things that I want to do and a whole bunch of fun projects that I’m excited about getting into this weekend. I’m feeling inspired by the flickr streams I follow and can’t wait [...]
We had an extra adventuresome (my current favorite word, by the way) time at the dog park tonight. I really wish I had brought my camera along. So many wagging tails and cute puppy faces! So instead of photos of the pups and his friends, I just have photos of places to share. They are [...]
Joel sent off a bunch of film to be scanned and after weeks of waiting the scans came in last night. Some of my favorites were from the road trip we took last summer. Four of us drove from Chicago to Rochester, NY for the wedding of dear college friends. On the way back we [...]
Spring was so lazy about taking its sweet time to get here that summer had to step in! So the tulips are only just beginning to really show up during a week of 80+ degrees and thunderstorms. It’s finals week at my day job and soon I’ll be busy processing grades and lots of other [...]
Tonight we’re going to Milwaukee to see Ben Folds & Street Corner Symphony! We found out about the show at the last minute and just decided to go today. We aren’t usually so spontaneous. I am so looking forward to it! Until then, I still have the workday afternoon to get through so I snatched [...]
It’s been busy over here! And it’s going to be getting more and more crazy for the next few weeks. It’s just that time of year! I was feeling a little extra stressed today, so when Erin posted about the beautiful blog Nordic Design (totally a new favorite!) I was thrilled to come across this [...]
It’s a beautiful Friday afternoon. There is coffee in my cup and sunshine on the leaves. The maples are turning their pretty orange-red, of all the fall colors those are my favorite shades! I went looking through Poppytalk’s annual Autumn Colour Week flickr Group and I put together two pretty photo groups from their pool [...]
The university that Joel and I work at gives us a day off for our birthdays! I’ve never had an employer that does that, so we decided to take a long weekend with Joel’s birthday off day and went to Milwaukee. It was so much fun and such a pretty, little city that I thought [...]
I write about things I like: knitting, fashion, books, and other cozy, lovely things. Thanks for visiting!
