just because

i miss a certain someone
&
wish she would come home
from home
already

this is an incredibly romantic moment and you're ruining it for me

if I could love
John Hughes any more
sincerely John Hughes

My friends had
a backyard showing
of Sixteen Candles
last weekend
we ate grilled cheese
and tomato soup
we needed comfort food...

then I found this over
at Kime's blog

Thank you
John Hughes.

Busy-Being

speaking of Busy-Being
there are
so many new
reasonably priced
goodies I want to get
my mittens on

this rad limited edition print
from my old partner
in business and crime :)
Kime Buzzelli


Peggy Honeywell's (aka Clare Rojas)
new cd
who I met up with
during my recent work
trip to San Francisco
and I'm super
excited to have her in
our artist family


and her new book


Ramsey Dau's little notebooks
are the coolest




Princess Tina's raincloud necklace
that for some
reason I still
don't own



and loads more...

Katsuo Design says nice day


The hubbyo's latest
endeavor into homeware
is available now
over at
busy-being
along with loads
of other artfully designed
inspiration for your life.

I believe they are also still
available at Beams Hong Kong.
Beams Japan is all sold out of the cups,
but they do still have
a few of his
Utrecht zines

dont ask me
what's going on
at his website
Katsuo Design
Your guess
is as good as mine...

today i think of you

pretty painted streets












sometimes
the simplest
things
bring with
them great
charm

from
my recent
work trip
to San Francisco

dawn to dusk

sunrise 4th of July
the clouds meet the sky
at the top of the mountain



sunset
pre fireworks

It is that time again...
the ever dangerous
barneys warehouse sale.
This year I went with
one agenda
and walked away
with them
happily in hand







so much for the colorful Lanvin heels I was enamored of...
they were lovely on the feet but my heart was stolen

red wing days

After years of searching
and finally giving up
I found a pair of
60's Red Wing Irish Setters
in my tiny size.
They are beat to hell
and beautiful.
