a day off for the working citizens

tomorrow i start my classes at the san francisco art institute.
i promise to actually start writing things on this blog that
coincide somewhat with what i am learning and doing.
until then, here's some things i'm momentarily obsessed with.

roy mcmakin, private residence


z words in scrabble i had never heard of:
zelkova, zwieback, zabajone, zloty



bunny lane, bernardsville, new jersey

a house inside a house.



something i just found and am totally amazed.
in preparation for hurricane gustav in the french quarter:

just outside the sunbelt

the backyard of my house. we moved in on monday.
the four of us i'd say are quite enthralled with this
place. we have ample amounts of space and light
and there's just a general sense of homeyness
right from the start. i'm very grateful to be here.


my bathroom. glad to be back to the claw foot
tub. actually 3 out of the 4 bathrooms have claw foot tubs.



that is carmen in the living room. she found the house.

this is the swing outside of my bedroom.
it might be my favorite thing so far.
oh wait...did i mention the avocado tree?

and by the way, i've completely forgotten how to take pictures.
