Daily Likes: Potiche
I watched François Ozon’s latest film this past weekend: Potiche! It was quite entertaining and such a joy to watch — from the bright, retro colors & mood, to the amazing performance by Catherine Deneuve. I strongly recommend it — and can’t wait to watch it again myself ;)

My dad’s sweet little dog went to the Rainbow Bridge (as some like to call it) yesterday. So sad… she’ll be missed greatly.

This picture alone makes me want to get out all my cameras & shoot more. I’ve been so neglectful of my cameras….

Wine Country
A few weekends ago, I spent a few days in wine country. My mother, brother, sister-in-law, and I took in some lovely sights, great food, and enjoyed lots of wine tasting in celebration of my brother’s birthday. I bought some wonderful champagne that I hope to crack into.
I only ended up taken a couple of photos… this was one of them ;)

Happy Birthday Daniel Johnston!
Today is Daniel Johnston’s 50th birthday. He’s one of the most creative, inspiring fellows around. I feel so lucky that I was able to see him perform, up close & personal just this last year. What an amazing night it was!

Holgaroid: Motel
Motel in Culver City. I’m pretty much obsessed with this sign ;)
I thought I’d lost this Holgaroid about a year ago — so happy to find it last night (along with some other photos I thought I’d misplaced!! What a great feeling to find them again!)

Hello! Wow… again, I can’t believe I’ve stayed away from this little site (and the internet as a whole, actually) for so long! That’s what traveling and an awful, lingering case of strep throat will do to a gal ;)
I have TONS to post here: musings from 2010, ideas for 2011, photos, and a heap of other exciting things. Unfortunately, I am behind on nearly everything,...

Happy Monday
Oops… been awhile since I’ve posted. Things have been so busy work-wise; I was completely run down by last Friday. This past weekend in LA was wonderful: rainy & chilly — perfect weather for staying inside, reading, and catching up on rest! Happy Monday!
Posting will be light this week — ‘tis the season!
Smell you later!
Hi!
Taking a few days from posting as I have TONS to do in preparation for the holidays. This weekend, I’m going to attempt the somewhat lofty goal of making four (yes 1-2-3-4!) different kinds of jelly!! Also, I need to finish my holiday greeting cards — I’ve made the design but now I just need to put them together. So, the next few days are going to be full of creating and...
