Thank you for your sweet words on our wedding photos for the past few days. I loved seeing the pictures and I'm glad I got my memories of the day down "on paper." I think I will be making a book through Blurb of our photos. I hope to get that started in early June.…

CAKE : Thanks for your thoughts, encouragement, ideas, stories & emails with fun photos. A bunch of you mentioned cupcakes. I am right there with you. My mom and I tasted a few cupcakes at a local shop last weekend but between you and me, internet, we were not as impressed as we had hoped…

Whew, home in the homeland. The land of the inexpensive produce. The land of the funny and supportive parents. Land of the old VHS home movies that we felt like watching last night. Feels very good to be back. Sadly though, I have a severe case of jet lag which I think has a lot…

…but I am very much looking forward to fall. Isn't it strange how we just adjust like that? Last spring I thought I would never make it through another cold season. And yet, on the brink, I am totally excited. It's like magic. Or adaptation. Or whatever it is that separates us from the animals.…

Yesterday got stranger and stranger. My tiredness turned into dizziness which resulted in an email to Paul listing my symptoms. He was at the hospital but made time to call and check in. "How's your pulse?" he asked. "Uhhh, there?" Quite obviously, he was relieved. Lots of water and bad television and I started to…

Today is the first day of school for so many people. I'm a little bit envious. So much excitement. Clean notebooks. Favorite outfit. The only day of the year when you are not tired when the alarm goes off and instead jump out of bed to start making your hair look right. The day when…

Paul and I just started watching Mad Men. I have a love/hate relationship with nearly every character. I'll watch forever though because the writing is great, the costumes are perfection and I am so intrigued that they are not making something from nothing, but instead taking what exists (the era) and writing a story around…

Still in love with our engagement photos. I might start all posts for the next month with that sentence. Or not. But maybe. Couple of things : 1) the tippy-toe photo is a big fave of mine too. 2) inspired by our photos, I am hoping to buy a big digital SLR for Christmas. 3)…

We attended a just perfect wedding on Saturday in Berkeley, California. It was one of those weddings where it's obvious attention has been paid to every detail and yet the bride and groom still don't look a tiny bit stressed. Instead, they just look in love. Congrats Nat + Wes. We are so happy we…
