with every word that comes out of this woman’s fingertips. In fact, the major highlight of my holiday season last year was Thom bringing home a set of their hand soaps. He loves me.

Susan Kniffin Davidson has more work up in her Etsy store.

We’re still a bit away from our next tile project (the kitchen and downstairs bathroom) but if only I could sneak one of these suckers in… Probably not good for resale. And I’m lucky Thom let’s me keep Susan’s baby head cup in the house at all.

But Susan did let me know that she will have more cups in her store around Xmas time. And our baby needs a friend.

I have a short list of things that I wish we could do in Mexico for the wedding. But we just can’t. Well, technically we could if we had money just burning a hole in our pockets. Unfortunately it’s more like we’re collecting piles of change and hoping that when we cash it in right before the wedding it will cover our non-existent honeymoon.

But, if we were getting married in New York… We’d definitely have a cake display like this:

Although perhaps I could settle for a setup like this at the shower. Ahem.

too bad this doesn’t come in Thom-size. And, of course, he serves as current tech support. Actually, nevermind. He definitely wouldn’t find this humorous at all.

This Saturday we’re taking advantage of the still warm (ok, friggin’ muggy) weather to have a dinner party in the backyard. My mouth is watering just thinking of the menu…

So if you’re in Brooklyn this Saturday stop by.

We woke up at the crack of dawn last Saturday and trooped out to the post office. And thank goodness we did because I got first dibs at the self-service machine and then hogged it for an hour and a half to individually weigh each invitation. That’s right people - in addition to the serious love it took to put together each invitation they were manually processed by me!

Mark that down as another backup job opportunity - postal worker.

Everyone should have received their invitations by now. So far only two people didn’t realize there was salt in the container. Hee hee.

A week ago - right before I got sick (feeling better now) - I was drinking butterscotch martinis while Tony was feeding the chiminea with found table legs.

I’m going to paint everything white - and you can’t stop me!

it’s been hectic around here lately. plus i’m sick. and i’m the worst kind of sick person around.

but still i worry about not posting to the blog regularly. which i don’t know why considering 2 people read it.

so i thought i’d share a picture of our first crisp, fall saturday lunch of the year - a mutt o’ maya tofu dog from willie’s dawgs. and while the food was so-so (blame it on the tofu!) the place does love dogs. jasper even got his own “day-old dog.”

why didn’t i think of it first? so simple.
