YAWN! That was a great nap

Oh, hey! I just had a little eight month hibernation. I think I'm back... I suppose time will tell.

Here are some highlights from the last several months.

we went camping...
we enjoyed christmas... (with some hysterical anti-deceptive packaging courtesy of samantha)
these jokers met their hero, the brewmaster of Brooklyn Brewery and author of The Brewmaster's Table, Garrett Oliver...
we survived several absurd snow storms...
we experienced culture... (this particular photo is the Philadelphia Orchestra)
we ate...
a lot...
we went to a super fun and memorable wedding of some of our best friends, Andrew and Becky...
and I started dating Don Draper.

I have a great life.

hello again!

Hello my darling three or four loyal readers! It has been quite awhile, hasn't it? My apologies for being negligent on my blogging duties. Well, our computer is officially kaput, so says our trusted computer genius. Joe bought a new one but in the meantime we've been getting by with my old laptop. It functions just fine but it is super slow and doesn't have any of my recent photos and files.

We have a lot to catch up on, but until I get myself organized, let me just give you a few little tidbits...

-I've started running early in the mornings with my new neighbor and long-time best friend Chelsea. Hope we can keep it up!
-I am hard at work on a super special secret project for a certain September wedding that I am SUPER looking forward to.
-Joe and I finally got hooked on True Blood, I am somewhat sorry to report. Our roommate and other friends love it and now we too are addicted to ridiculous vampire smut.
-I am also hard at work on an art project Joe concocted on an especially creative day. More details on that later.
-Yey for Greg, who designed his first magazine cover for Grid magazine this month!
-Cross your fingers for Andrew and Becky. They are anxiously awaiting the results of the PHS City Garden Contest they entered this year.

That's all I've got today. Come back and visit soon and I will have more about the goings-on of the last few weeks. Have a wonderful day!

Up To My Ears

Today I've been steeping with inspiration. Sewing projects and paintings and crafts, etc etc. The problem is, whenever I have all these seemingly brilliant ideas I sort of lose them as the day wears on. I may not have the necessary materials on hand, or I may start and lose focus.

I've been itching to start a blog for ages, but now seems like a good time, I suppose. I'm not expecting anyone to actually read it. It will be a good forum for myself to compile photos and sketches and recipes and ideas. And if anyone does happen to come across it, perhaps it will spark some creativity.

Now I'll leave you with some beautiful examples of stitching and quilting. Have a beautiful day!
