Ick to the Y-U-C-K (this is the beginning of a song I’ve been inspired to write over the last week) We’re record breakers. http://www.accuweather.com/blogs/news/story/26842/rain-still-threatening-floodin.asp At least in all of this I get to know that somehow, even in its most sick and twisted way, we won! Seriously, New England, way to bring it home. Granted, My living room is covered in pots and pans and dripping water. Poor little roof just couldn’t take NYC’s competitive nature this week. I am so SICK […]

I don’t know about you…but THIS bunny feels jipped. Hopefully we’ll get some sun and tulips soon. Hopefully I won’t be sweater clad and drinking HOT beverages for too much longer. Afterall, it’s almost APRIL. Way to fake us out NYC, way to fake us out…

This morning at 11:42 AM I recieved a phone call. This call came from my good “friend” Christian who has been MIA from Manhattan for far too long. He called me why? To tell me A) That he loved my NYC – centric post from yesterday and B) That he just didn’t believe it. When I challenged him he airily replied, “Oh, I believe that you saw all that stuff yesterday, I just don’t believe that’s typical.” — “Oh yeah, Christian? I […]

Today I went to lunch outside. We walked approx. 1 block towards Madison Square Park. I sat where we always sit when it is newly Spring and the park lawn isn’t open for picnics yet. When that happens we settle for here:Smack dab in front of the Flat Iron Building. Yes, I am aware that people sometimes travel thousands of miles to glimpse this archetctural marvel, but I see it every single day. It takes a gorgeous Spring day for me to […]

Given my life long love affair with chunky typography that is not what it seems,(scroll down to see exhibit A) I fell in love with Etsy’s landing page this morning. I thought it’d be a travesty for it to be destroyed without proper accolades. Incase you missed it (like if you’re not refreshing http://www.Etsy.com every ten minutes) I’ve recreated it here in all its crafty genius.

Easter’s on Its Way!Yesterday at church when this fact was brought to my attention, I decided I’d draw a bunny. That seemed to go pretty well. So I decided I’d draw another. And another. Then this bunny seemed to be looking for something…. I figured with Spring (allegedly) right around the corner he was pr’olly looking for love.Sometimes this goes well. Sometimes it does not. Sometimes it is frustrating. Sometimes it is simple. Sometimes it is passionate. Sometimes it is shy. Sometimes […]

Today is my kid sister’s birthday! When I think about April B. or Prilly, or the Apie, as she is sometimes called, I first think of her innate fashion sense. April has always known ‘What looks good.’ I distinctly remember running out of the house on my way to a field trip and having April hold out a sweater that she’d pinned a big fat broach on. “If you’re going to wear THAT, will you at least wear THIS over it?” I […]
