Happy 2nd Anniversary Michael!

This is a little bit late but I would like to dedicate this post to my sweet love, Michael. He is the most tender, most handsome and talented boy and I love him dearly. We had so much fun on our Anniversary celebration (October 3). We first went to the awesome Signed & Numbered poster gallery and purchased a really beautiful Rilo Kiley poster. After that we went shopping at the Gateway and finished off the evening with clam chowder and fruit tart at the Market Street Broiler (YUM)!

I love you, Michael. Thank you for being the best husband in the world!

Check Me Out!

I made my very own hummus today! I've been trying to get myself out of this Top Ramen, Macaroni and Cheese, Lean Cuisine phase... not to say any of those things are bad. And not to say that hummus is the most challenging cuisine. I just feel that I should try to be a bit more domestic. So here's my attempt:

Yay for Little Jerry!

Good heavens, what a lovely brooch

I was doing a little spelunking on Etsy today and came across these gorgeous brooches. They are made by "designedbyjane" (I couldn't get the link to work). Here are some of my favorites:

Wacomtastic!

My Wacom tablet arrived today! Can you think of anything more fun? To be able to draw with a "pencil" on the computer? Oh man, I'm so excited!

Also, the weather yesterday was pretty fabulous. I really wish Spring would just arrive early this year. I'm really itching for some good old outdoors..ness.

P.S. I threw in a Keira Knightley face for those of you who may be interested.

Happy Birthday Michael!

Michael is now 22 years of age (his birthday was actually September 11; I'm a little late). I just wanted to put up a few pictures about his special day.

Note: check out that sweet Ghostbusters tray.


Thanks to sis for the fantastic "ugly" cake:

T'was a lovely time. Thanks everyone for making it so much fun for my sweet boy.

ALERT! Another favorite.

As most of you (who are close to me) know, trees are one of my very favorite things in the whole world. Well, I was exploring the interweb today and came across this amazing artist: Judith Belzer. Her artwork is done in oil on canvas and her subject matter is everything having to do with trees... not to mention, her palette of colors is very very cool. Yep, I'm a fan.






Wow. Great stuff.
