he took a long time to go down the "schlide." he was too busy being nosy.

both my boys are sleeping. i'm beat after hosting a brunch today. i'm combing through apartment therapy, looking for house ideas. two i like from rachel and alfred's artfully cataloged collections, are:

these leaves are above their bed and they look so pretty. i don't think i could talk gabe into this, however, i could maybe mount them and frame them.


i first saw this done by lisa congdon. i've been collecting plates ever since, however, i've yet to hang anything. maybe in our new place.

exploring kutsher's

i feel like i'm cheating when i use the shake it photo application and make my phone pictures look all fancy.

i'm still smiling when i think of atp. it was so much FUN.

instead of telling you more about atp, i'm going to tell you what i did tonight.

tonight, instead of exercising for the first time in a week, i made this chocolate cake, from here.

it's the 2nd time i've made it, after reading about it on not martha.

so now i'm sitting on the couch feeling very full and happy. and a little bad about not exercising.

smitten kitchen is new favorite. check out the grape focaccia with rosemary. i think it's next on my list.

back from vacation

we left ollie for the first time this past weekend and went to ATP with our friends, gabrielle and craig.





we stayed at kutsher's country club. gabrielle called it indie rock summer camp, which was a perfectly apt description.

there was lots and lots of music, comedy, movies, food, drinking, laughing, and dancing. more pictures and details to follow.

ollie's peeps

back from vacation! details to follow.
