{The stunning ALT welcome box.} Utah in January is becoming a bit of a thing for us. Well…last year and this year, but still – two visits to the same town with the same friends in a year? IT’S A THING. {Those are Cariann’s shoes, but I might steal them.} Anyway – As I write this, I’m sitting alone in the… Read more →

Turn, Turn, Turn
Every year, I say it and I hear it: I can’t believe Christmas has come and gone already. But this year, while August crept up on me without a freaking sound ~ the past four months have dragged on for like…an eternity. Oh, what a long strange trip it’s been, Internet. There are stories I tell you. Those are my… Read more →
My Neighbor is a Genius
Aside from baking what had to have been some of the most delicious peanut butter cookies this side of anywhere (so delicious they didn’t even make it to the photo shoot, except for that crum in the corner) our new {and just…lovely} neighbors peeped over our fence Wilson style and laid these little bits of Kitchinspiration on us. Mind? Blown. … Read more →
Some Small Business Gift Guidance.
Small business Saturday is such a nice break between crazy-ass Black Friday, and bandwidth-breaking Cyber Monday. Do you find yourself wondering: “But HOW can I support small businesses?” {Just…humor me.} Never fear, friends and lurkers, I am here to give you a few ideas of how my personal pockets are lined. First and foremost, this time of year, think about… Read more →
We’re Awesome at Camping
If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it 1000 times…REI is THA BOMB. (That’s right, I wrote it ’90’s style because that’s how serious I am about this shiz.) So you already heard about my shopping trip to buy goodies for our big beach camp-out in Malibu Carpinteria (it’s hard to get a camp site this time of year in… Read more →
Hey, It’s Me Again.
I never know how to come back from heavy stuff. All week I’ve read my friends beautiful posts over and over and thought “I gotta wrap this up” but how do you wrap up something like this? Especially when I still have posts I want to link to like THIS ONE from my fellow NYU Alum {link very graphic} Tracy… Read more →
Cool or Crazy? Plus John Legend & Sade in a Box.
Like, a super sweet suite box: Thanks to Jen and Barb of Mom Life for the invite. It’s rad when fellow working Moms recognize each other and treat each other to nice things. I really can’t thank Jen and Barb enough for this much needed break. But first, before spending an evening in a fancy-ass box at Staples Center drinking wine… Read more →
Get Outta My Head + Onto My Blog.
The BlogHer recap is no easy task. #1. It’s an insane amount of stuff to try and tell you about. #2. I know that about a quarter of you guys don’t have your own blogs and probably don’t care, and I’m so sorry for that. I promise to make it up to you with a fun video or something. In… Read more →
Wedding Porn: Rich & Des
You kind of can’t help but swoon, right? They look totally perfect. (They are.) From the second I saw their stunning invite, I knew it was going to be an affair to remember. Rich and Des did not disappoint. (Oh, I so wish I snagged a shot of the Groomsmen together, because their tux were beyond rad. Oops) Probably doesn’t… Read more →
Dark Days
The problem with June Gloom dragging on as long as it has is that I am a person who really needs sunshine all the time. Ultimately, it’s why I put up with the craziness of LA life rather than disappearing to the MPLS or the Colorado Mountains or Provo Utah or somewhere completely inexplicably random (not that I’ve thought about… Read more →
