Last night we decided to go out for dinner. Freya has always been great in restaurants, thank goodness. We went to one of our favorite spots, Mor Mor, known for its local gourmet food. A year ago we were still bringing her puree pouches and little bags of Cheerios out to restaurants, but she has […]

I seriously need to update my blog regularly again, especially as I am pregnant and have a lot going on and as soon as my new daughter arrives (yes, it’s a girl!) it’s not like I’ll have time anymore for a while with two little ones to care for full time. Though I know I […]

haunted room

Early this morning Kona woke up from a bad dream howling. She also woke the rest of us up of course. I got down beside her in the dark bedroom, hugging and soothing her as she whimpered and cried, poor pup. I could hear Freya talking to Brian, “what’s Kona doing?” When Kona went back […]

the baxter

That’s the name of the next vintage Coach I’m getting. It will be delivered tomorrow. It’s an absolute stunner, and most amazingly, it is almost twenty years old and still has the original Marshall Field’s dept store tags attached. It has NEVER been used. And, it’s a rare style, and a rare color (burgundy). I […]

specs

I ordered these glasses today. I found them on eBay for $125. At the optometrist’s today, trying them on, I was looking at paying over $300, as my insurance only covers frames every two years. So I opted to save two hundred bucks. My lenses are partially covered, so when it’s all said and done […]

So a few weeks ago I went out to tapas dinner with a few girlfriends. The food was AMAZING, as was the company. But that’s another story. My friend Jean was carrying a purse which I, as a handbag enthusiast, spotted across the room. I had to know more about it. It was a large […]

I went shopping

We went to San Francisco this week, just got home this afternoon. While in the City, I enjoyed a little bit of shopping, which was especially fun since I know this will be our last vacation out of state for who knows, a year? And next time we get to buy a ticket for Freya […]

another rainy day

Once again it’s pouring rain. I feel so bad keeping Freya cooped up. I wish there was somewhere close and dry we could go besides the mall, ugh. I am so sick of this cold wet winter! Also it’s spring forward day, which I HATE. I’ll be disoriented for a few days. Who knows when […]

resigned

I just need to come to the terms, at long last, with the fact that I simply should not wear colored polish on my fingernails. I need to stick with pale, sheer pink or nude, and nothing else. I can do whatever I want with my toenails, though. Go bananas! You’re welcome and goodnight.
