My cousin Adam married his high school sweetheart Stephanie in a beautiful ceremony at Brooklyn Botanic Gardens (what can I say? Puppy love runs in the family.) After arriving on the Party Bus (a shuttle which took us from Long Island to Brooklyn) we were greeted by fizzy glasses of Champagne, and bamboo parasols to shield us from the sun… Read more →

Make Way for Ducklings
One of the best things about being in NY for the week is that Marissa, Todd, Eva, and Lolo are here with us. Today (when the rain subsided) we took the girls to the park by Aunt Judy’s house (who has generously offered to put up our entire clan for the week, Grandma and Grandpa included) to feed some Goose… Read more →
It’s officially the future.
I’m on a plane. Like, right now. And my laptop is plugged in, charging, and connected to WiFi. I’ve previously mentioned my love for Virgin America and their fleet of Soul Planes, but until I discovered that they had outlets under the seats, I couldn’t bring myself to pay $12.95 for the 20 minutes of internet use my crap laptop… Read more →
Crap. I’m up against a bunch of crazies.
So, I’d heard a while back (when I first started obsessively stalking baby furniture deals online) that overstock.com had sold the Netto Cub Sleeper (1.0, not 2.0, which is the one I dream about at night) and changer for the insanely low price of $180 and $130 respectively. Considering that the modern lines at Target and Walmart are between two… Read more →
Nesting Fever
My brain is a mysterious beast that’s near impossible to wrangle at times. You might think that all of the redecorating/reorganizing that NEEDS to be done over the next four months would keep my obsessive need for constant change at bay, but looking at paint chips and spending inordinate amounts of time on the DwellStudio site (+ making time sucking… Read more →
Happy Birthday Baby
I love you. Read more →
Twenty Seven Tresses
It’s been fifteen years since I had my first taste of the dye bottle – and I remember, even at thirteen years old knowing that I’d never be able to give it up. I haven’t touched the stuff since my positive pregnancy test, and if I have to look at my same boring faded out brown hair color in the… Read more →
‘Cause it’s funny.
Love is indiscriminate. California is not.
On September 29, 2007 I married the love of my life. No one tried to stop me. Our family and friends gathered, drank (a lot), danced, and celebrated with us the joy that we’ve found in each other. Every day when I wake up next to my husband, I’m grateful that I get to experience marriage, because it truly is… Read more →
Tick Tock
How cool is this clock? From Kailey Hawthorn’s Etsy Shop, it’s hand painted on a record, and I love the retro feel of it. It kinda reminds me of something Peter Max might have done back in the day – only more subdued. Read more →
