After making some 4th of July shirts for the kids, I decided to throw a few in ye olde shoppe. Oh and there are come cozy cones, too! Happy Wednesday!

We made it over to the farmer's market today. We were in need of some herbs and they are always more affordable at the farmers market ($1 bunch) as opposed to going to my local market. We are lucky because you can usually find a market running every day of the week. I'm not going…

I'm joining the "Summer is…." group (details here, so join, too!) and will post pictures here once or twice a week on what's happening with us over the Summer. You can see everyone's photo's here. My family used to go to Mother's Beach when I was small. I still have vivid memories of coming here.…

It's always good to come home to a mailbox bearing gifts.  I ordered this stamp a couple of weeks ago from etsy. It's from the uber-talented Craft Pudding.  If you remember, Craft Pudding is also the one who designed the fabric I ordered via Spoonflower. I think I'll use them for thank-you notes or to…

These are the sammy's I made last Friday. They are going to become a staple around here. I am sure they will accompany us to many a night at the Hollywood Bowl this season. You should make them, like right this second. Original recipe found here. I tweaked it a little, so here's what you'll…

See, I told you. It's so green. I took a mini-drive up Provo Canyon on Friday. I moved to Utah from California when I was 10. We moved just about 2 miles south of the mouth of this very canyon. Many a picnic were spent up this canyon. Drives to Heber for shakes at Granny's.…

The cozy cones have been getting some serious playtime (and don't Mr & Mrs The King look so deluxe at my sisters salon?) If you have children who have cars, you really must make your very own cozy cone motels. They will love you all the more for it.  Happy Friday!

We high-tailed it up to Utah over the weekend. Chris has been planning a week long fly-fishing trip with old Boston friends so we dropped him off in SLC on Saturday. He called today to say they had to hike 5 miles to get to a river and then hiked 5 miles back. Sounds like…

I know it's not technically Summer, but doesn't the warm weather feel wonderful? My friend Michelle had us over for lunch today and made the most amazing pasta dish, I had to beg her to share and she obliged (I did ask, right Michelle?) Ingredients3 medium zucchini, sliced into rounds & cut in 1/21 to…

Four is soo good. All day I thought about the day he was born, 4 years ago at Brigham & Women's Hospital in Boston. I was so anxious to meet my first-born. He was late. Almost an entire week late and every minute of everyday seemed to last an eternity waiting for his arrival. He…
