slowly, slowly, slowly i have become more interested in food and cooking thanks to the abundance beautiful food blogs and the new (based on the old) food culture surrounding production and consumption (organic, local, sustainable, seasonal, etc). i didn’t grow up cooking or around cooking in the traditional sense, but i find it romantic and i have the strong belief that learning how to cook...

wisdom
eek! i’m getting my wisdom teeth removed today … finally. i’ve procrastinated this for quite a few years now. i won’t need surgery; they are just yanking them out. still, i am not looking forward to it. i hope i won’t miss them when they’re gone. {photo by kygp}

d*s sneak peak: adam & halligan
here’s a little interior inspiration for you on this friday morning. i pretty much adore anything that involves this couple. their wedding was all over the internet and i just saw this november 2009 post about their house on design*sponge (via haylie b. waring’s blog). i am most impressed by how they rock the indie eclectic look, but still pull off an uncluttered and serene...

georgia peach
i know i’m in north carolina right now, but georgia has been on my mind lately. i did a little anthropologie.com “window” shopping for a savannah inspired outfit. a little blush of color like a ripe peach and a little dash of class like a prim-and-proper southern belle. who’s ready for a stroll through forsyth park?  {snow covered fields dress, cooling cardigan,...

let's just say ...
that ice fishing wasn’t for me. although i’m glad i did it … once. the top photo is of a circular rainbow that appeared around the sun. (it’s hard to tell but it’s there!) the middle two photos are of jeff and me, and the bottom photo shows jeff’s fishing hole. my favorite part of the trip was letting the minnow free (since we didn’t actually...
