Hi Hannah, I will be making an announcement this week (I hope!)
PHOTOGRAPHER JAMIE BECK
Anne Sage of City Sage never disappoints, she is full of wit and wisdom and her treasure trove of finds delight me to no end. When she had me clicking over to 'This is Glamorous' to visit Jamie Beck's feature I thought I would die of 'swoonism'. Wouldn't you LOVE to have a portrait of you...
And the price is right, no?
CHANNELING YOUR INNER MISSONI
Oh these need to be mine like yesterday! I am not new to the zig zag obsession, I can say I have been smitten since I first laid eyes on a Missoni dress many moons ago, I never get tired of this pattern. When you pair zig zags, with metallic AND flats? I am a goner....
It's going to be so easy and will change your world (and jean size)
A PENNY SAVED IS A PENNY EARNED...
I never know what will inspire me next, will it be a person, place or thing? Who knows what goes on in my head? I certainly don't seem to have a handle on my brain after all these years together. Lately, I have been inspired to save, save, save after I realized that our grocery and my take-ou...
Krista if you fear that than you know yourself, I am in the same boat without the Fancy there to snatch the bread from my paws I am impervious to the sourdough. Last night I ate half a pizza I made with the same amount of dough I would use for a 'boule' loaf, so basically I ate 1/2 a loaf of bread slathered in cheese and olive oil. I am still feeling equal parts giddy that I made pizza and guilty that I am a glutton.

Lol, Janice, you are funny, oh I would love to know about the bread, I just made some the other night and the Fancy inhaled the first loaf before dinner was done, I was both pissed and proud, go figure?
QUICK 'LEEK & POTATO' SOUP RECIPES
My farm produce delivery was on Tuesday and I have been planning out meals like it was the 'norm'. I think I must let you know that I did not grow up in a household where fresh cooking scents wafted from the cozy kitchen and I have cherished recipes that have been passed down for generations. ...
Tali only a messy Fancy and an Ox like Frenchie that would be sure to knock the tent down in 2 seconds:)
GLAMPING PART DEUX
I stole this image from the darling 'Happiness is...' blog. I mentioned 'glamping' (glam + camping) a few months back, but this my friends is some serious glam camping--indoor tent (check), crystal chandelier (check) baroque painted coffee table in said tent (check). I love it all, I wish I w...
I will make sure the little cottage on the miniature animal farm will have white floor boards for you but Lucy might blend in,so be prepared...
IT'S MONDAY AGAIN!
I highly doubt that I will ever lose my fascination with the Frenchie face. That cross between little old man/Winston Churchill, baby gorilla and bat/gargoyle is endlessly amusing to me. I have no idea how photographer Mia Takahara was able to get her Frenchie to not nab this sausage and ea...
That tongue is fab, no? what self control and those ears are hilarious, agreed:)

Steph, they are a lot of work but really worth it, she makes me smile, laugh and feel more loved than anything in the world (I am her favorite after all).
SHE'S NAUGHTY BUT NICE
When I open my eyes in the morning this is the look and face that I am usually greeted with. Granted Bella spends an inordinate amount of time trying to wake me up without seeming like she is trying to wake me up. Sometimes she will sneeze, most of the time she flops pretending to try to get...
Oh that's too funny (and very sly). "What Mom? I was just shaking my head, did I wake you?"

Oh, so sorry to hear that I know that you must be ready for spring (as I am ready for fall)!
WET + STORMY WITH HIGH'S IN THE 80'S, WHA?
It has been stormy, cold and wet these past few days and just when I was unpacking sweaters and boots believing that the City of Angels would be in sync with the rest of fall, I found out it will be 83 degree's this Saturday and Sunday. 83?!!! I have no idea why the weather has been so wacky...
Love it to the moon and back!

Thanks! I am so happy you like they have a new Sharpie liquid pencil that I am dying to get my paws on:)

It was tres yummy! Yes, indeed, everything taste's so different agreed. I am trying to figure a way to go and visit and never come back:) Shall you hire me as your live in gardener? Will work for cherry tomatoes. My gloves are pretty to me, because they are slim and plain. It is near impossible to find a plain pair of women's gloves and men's gloves I might as wear baseball mitts to garden!
ON THE FARM FRONT
Truly, if I knew I would derive so much pleasure from having farm fresh produce delivered and starting my own garden I would have done this years ago. I was under the impression that I needed space and I now have a tiny cement patio that currently has a flourishing herb garden (so fa...
Good because we have enough chard to feed an entire city, lol.

Diane I have this book because I totally stalk Gayla, the other book is (in my opinion) 'easier', for the dolt gardener that I am, it also breaks everything down into seasons so I know what to plant when and she's big on window gardens for those that have zero space which I really like. Gayla though impresses me to know end, I love her site, books, photo's, sigh...

Toi! I just read about hobby farms in Country Living and I think they would be perfect for the mini animal farm! I want that mini cow and donks so bad it hurts!

Do it Tracey, it is so, so much fun. Just make sure you know where your sun is and get plants or seeds that do well in your area. I killed my first round of herbs because I didn't realize the sun didn't shine on that area all day;)

I did! It was tough though when I asked for them both my mom and the Fancy said, 'we got you a lens last year'. Whatever...
PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE...
How lucky was I to spot a fine photo-op such as this at the Flea this weekend? I was able to take one of my birthday lenses for a spin and even though it was really awkward (everything is when you have a 3lb dog in your bag, a heavy camera and a cup of coffee in your hand) . I am having a hug...
Thank you Miss Lindsey, much appreciated, I can't wait to have some time off to play with it some more!

It's the fun lens Annie, it makes everything feel a little more dreamy.
