Market me

Highlight of today was definitely hitting up Pike Place Market with boyfriend and my mom — I took way too many photographs (as usual) and I can’t help but share them with you (as usual) so enjoy (as usual?)! Oh, and dinner: Dover sole with black butter and capers, herb roasted potatoes and roasted asparagus [...]

Chicken fried… veggies?

For getting up at 11:30 AM (I know, this is turning into a really bad habit), we were amazingly productive today! Framed and hung three of my vintage French posters (Martini + Rossi, Tattinger and Parapluie Revel), figured out my drapery situation (formerly a total disaster) decided to hang drop cloths — yes, as in, [...]

2 AM and I’m still awake,

…but not writing a song. Anyway, I slept in until noon today (!!) puttered around, hung out with a friend before she disappeared back to school in the middle of nowhere (aka rural Ohio)… Came home, did some paperwork, helped the bf with his transcript, etc. Late late late night, kind of ready to start [...]

Lazy Sunday

Dusk and Summer

Slept in this morning before escaping to the Issaquah Farmer’s Market / Costco. Costco on a Saturday, if you have not yet experienced it, is sheer madness. It’s window shopping sans windows – essentially a bunch of aimless shoppers with nothing better to do, nowhere to go and a penchant for getting in your way. [...]
