Lately, I really miss shooting on film. It’s been quite awhile. As soon as I got my first digital camera about 8 years ago, there was really no going back. The convenience, simplicity and instant gratification of it all had me hooked. But if you’ve ever shot film, then you already know what I’m about…
Mother’s Day strangely brought up a lot of insecurities for me. You’re supposed to celebrate all your accomplishments as a mom, and all I could think about was everything that I was doing wrong. About 2 years ago, I stopped hoarding magazines. I used to save them all until I had cut out my favorite…
When my sister and I shared a bed growing up, if she so much as brushed against my arm, I would punch her as hard as I could in her sleep. Hey, I was just teaching her boundaries. Isn’t that what older sisters are for? So mean. I love not washing my hair for as long as…
I noticed the other day that the t-shirts I jog in are giving me a farmer tan. If I lived on a farm, this would be perfectly fine. Probably even expected. But in the grand city of L.A. I don’t even think it’s allowed! I’m pretty sure there are rules about that sort of things…
I broke my shopping diet. Relapsed. Spent $50 at Old Navy. It was a particularly stressful week and honestly, it felt soooo gooood. Stevie sat quietly while I tried on a bunch of clothes and that, in itself, was a miracle. Now I think that maybe if I was going to go to the trouble…
Soooo… I have some ‘dos that I’ve been drooling over lately. The problem is, I shouldn’t be drooling over them. I should be relishing in my longer hair. It’s really not that long. But it’s long for me. I’ve been faithfully growing it out for 2 years, wanting it eventually to look like this: I…
With Stevie’s arms growing longer by the minute, I sometimes get worried that once I’m done curling or straightening my hair, he’s going to get a hold of the iron while I leave it sitting on the counter to cool. I had to find something that I could store my hot iron in, and still be able…
So who else is obsessed with the latest Anthropologie catalog?! Anyone? Just me? Dang. Maybe it’s the shopping diet talking, but I seriously have looked at it 15 times. Each time, I slowly turn the pages to make sure I don’t miss anything. I’ve always considered myself a Fall–loving kind of gal (coats and boots…
Last year I wrote a post called 25 Ways To Know You’re Such a Mom. It’s a list that can constantly evolve, but still holds true. Sometimes it’s unbelievable how much life has changed or what you’ve had to give up after becoming a mom. But it certainly has it’s perks too. Hearing “Mama” for the first…
It was 85 degrees on Saturday. Naturally, I was thrilled about that. (Psha. Please note the sarcasm.) But it was a great, busy weekend. And it was back to being nice and cool on Sunday, so I didn’t have to be grumpy about sweating. But this not a weather blog, so let’s talk about something…
