Who’s your daddy?
With father’s day this weekend, I’ve been thinking a lot about the important dads in my life. My own daddy is a man I admire and love beyond compare. He is smart and stubborn, caring and controlling, loving and a bit of a lunatic sometimes. He has the remarkable power to makes me smile and [...]
Dear husband….
Just a little pre Valentine’s Day message to the love of my life….because really, I can’t possibly just save my love for him for just one day. I don’t really like Valentines day – it’s so commercial and sometimes a bit superficial…a red and pink hearts overload! But how could I not like the spirit [...]

Happy Monday friends! Did you miss me? Come on, come on, you know you did Sorry I missed the post on Friday, I just had a bit of the blues last week, and Friday I wanted nothing but to stay hidden under the covers all day and send telepathic orders to the rest of the [...]
{this weekend} Let’s sit around the house and count our gold
For those of you who thought I just won the lottery, sorry to disappoint I’m a rich girl, and I am not talking about money here. A lot of (rather sad) things have happened in NYC these past couple of weeks, things that I had made me thinking about my life a lot…and how lucky [...]
Oh…hello!
We’ve had family in town, and they are leaving today, so I figured I’d skip my regular post to enjoy the last few hours with them. Family comes first today! But in the meantime I wanted to share these pictures from Oh Joy’s “Blogging Inc.” book release party at West Elm in NYC last week [...]
{this weekend} Let’s fly, fly away
…because, really, it’s one of the coolest things – and if you’re ever given the chance to fly in a hot air balloon, grab it! Hubby and I were given a give certificate to fly when we got married – and yes, it only took us 4 years to get our act together and make [...]
{this weekend} let’s make a list…
Image source unknown. Or rather, let’s make THE list! It’s been a rough week around here. Not necessarily bad, but I am exhausted. All. The. Time. No energy. I am not sure why, probably physical therapy for my knee – they’ve had me work at it pretty hard. Hopefully next week is better so I [...]
Be right back….
…after I soak up all of the sun I can Today is Labor Day in the US, so I am probably out somewhere running around with my little girls and hubby, celebrating the holiday, enjoying the last few days of summer. And it may or may not involve some ice cream. I know by now most [...]
{this weekend} let’s have a pajama party
Illustration by Audrey Smit. So I am not going to lie, since my knee surgery on Tuesday, I’ve been hanging out…well, in my pajamas – you heard me right, ladies and gentlemen.And I am not ashamed of it. Not even a little. And so I thought – why not carry on throughout the weekend and [...]
{the colors of happiness} A place to rest your feet. A place to rest your mind.
Image source: Lavender by Pinecone Camp. Purchase here. When the day goes crazy on you, and you feel that you’ve been running left and right, where do you go to catch you breath? Do you have this little place inside or outside your home, this spot where you know you can always rest up your [...]
