Back in September, we went home to Utah for my sisters wedding. Early one morning she snuck in to take a picture of Henry & I sleeping. It was a chilly September morning and we were huddled close, keeping each other warm. Henry’s now moved into his own room, but boy, I sure miss co-sleeping.…

My brother called to say that he was cleaning out his storage unit and came across a bunch of old high-school art projects of mine. He called to see if I wanted them. Eeek. I didn’t even know what he had and I honestly didn’t want any of them. So, when we met for New…

On the Upper West Side of New York City, there’s a wonderful little cafe called Popover’s. We used to go there for brunch whenever we were in the city for the weekend.  It was the first time I had ever been introduced to popover’s and I really loved their wonky shape and of course, the…

Wow- it’s 2008!! I have to say, towards the end of 2007, I just couldn’t wait for it to be over! It gets to be a bit overwhelming sometimes, doesn’t it? All the holiday mumbo-jumbo. We didn’t get around to sending out our annual Christmas cards, but I’m not allowing myself to feel an ounce…

This is Henry’s little Christmas tree which sits on his nightstand next to his bed. The ornaments are a collection of thrifted ones  that are all wooden and folksy. Grandma gave him these and they are my fav’s: You can’t go wrong with mushroom ornaments, right?? The paper-whites are blooming and I’m in heaven. I‘ve…

I had to make an executive decision last night to fore-go  cleaning up Henry’s trains or folding laundry or digging out the enormous ‘mallow that somehow wedged itself in Henry’s sleeve when I was taking his shirt off.  Oh yes. That was all gonna wait. I rolled out the dough that I made last week,…

I had to make an executive decision last night to fore-go  cleaning up Henry’s trains or folding laundry or digging out the enormous ‘mallow that somehow got stuck in Henry’s sleeve when I was getting him ready for bed. Oh no. That was all gonna wait. I rolled out the dough that I made last…

Wow. We are so totally beyond thrilled! Henry kept saying that he wanted to have a ‘baby Nora’ just like Richard & Betsey’s brand new baby, and now well, it looks like we are going to. Happy, happy, joy, joy! So umm, rumor around town is that some of you just might be interested in…

Mallows? Check. Finished them up last night, but I see another 2 batches in my near future. If you’ve never made  homemade mallows before, you really should give them a try. They only take about 1/2 hour to prepare and then just need to sit at room temperature for a good 10-12 hours before you…

    When we moved into our new place, we gave up carpet (mostly) for some great hardwood floors. We love them, but it’s not always so comfy on ye olde feet. The more and more I thought about it- the more I realized slippers are just what we need this holiday season.  I LOVED these…
