Finished The Road this evening and it was totally heartbreaking. I really need to lay off of books involving children in unbearable places. Although it was a tough read, the painstaking detail of the day-to-day activities of the father and son kept me reading on. That and the want/need to have the end of the [...]

Reading The Road for a book club and I have to admit this is a nice palette cleanser after the decadent, wickedness of The Other Boleyn Girl. This photograph [...]
My relationship with the online world is one of love and hate. There are so many things I love about it … inspiring people, beautiful images, amazing communities of creativity. And then so many things I hate … the idea that there is such an increasing loss of real world connectivity. The potential to miss [...]
This weekend, we spent Sunday in an ideal way: walking through the market buying produce for the week, drinking coffee from Cafe Fiore (as I’ve mentioned before … hands down the BEST coffee in the city!) and perusing the wares of Ballard. We even ran into some old friends we hadn’t seen in years. It’s [...]
The husband and I just started a new blog over at Doozlife to provide a home for all of the baby-related information filling our heads. It’s a tragedy really, I had to get rid of all of the INXS lyrics, how to play the flute and the words to It’s The End of the World [...]
You should really spend some time at the Lightmark with a cup of coffee. The ‘Making Of’ section doesn’t seem to work properly (or I’m not as smart as I look with my glasses on) which is unfortunate because I’m intrigued by the light shapes and how they’re generated.

The good news, the Hebe is blooming.

It’s with great disappointment that I have to say that the Dig! Lazarus Dig! is just not working for me, neither is the cheesy mustache. Still … it’s Nick Cave and you don’t just dismiss a legend because of a greasy strip of hair living on his lip. Despite the album distaste, the feel of [...]
The days are finally warm(er) and the boy was finally able to enjoy some time in the pool. As you can see, he’s very busy. Busy digging, busy investigating, busy pointing at just about everything (especially lights and dogs).
To add to the busy-ness, he just started walking. And by just started, I mean he literally [...]
