I'm on the verge of a pretty big change in my day-to-day life. Combine that with our impending departure for Shanghai and my to do list is almost as long as my arm. These lilies were bought for our Easter festivities and I swear they're the best flowers we've ever had in our apartment. (I …
birth of a book.
As you know I love books and have a vested interest in their continued production. Take a look at this gorgeous video from Glen Milner that shows how books were once (and sometimes still are) made. Video via The Telegraph.
small joys.*
{The best ski day a girl could ask for on Saturday in Whistler. Followed by beer and poutine on a sunny patio.} This week has been a pretty fun one mixed with a fair amount of work. I had a fantastic weekend though, even though N was in Quebec without me! I went to Whistler …
the loving spoon.
I met the lovely Maya earlier this year and found out about her custom spoon business. I immediately loved the idea! She recycles silver spoons by customizing them with a message. Aren't they cute? I think they'd be great for a new baby or for a newlywed couple. Check out Maya's website here and her …

{Daffodils we grew ourselves, but that we brought inside because no one could enjoy them where they were growing.} The weeks have been flying by lately, but in a very lovely way. Some days, lately, it feels like spring is already here! Life is full and lovely these days, as pointed out by the fact …
cowboy style. {part II.}
{Boots from Lucchese Boot Co.} I'm still enamoured with cowboy (or girl) style. These would do just fine, yes-siry. A little pricey, but a girl can dream!
funniest video. this year. (so far.)
This video had me laughing so hard I couldn't speak for several minutes. NSFW because your coworkers will look at you strangely when you snort and cry. And also because there is farting in it ... not ideal for coworker relations. Video via UCB Comedy.
twenties/thirties party.
This weekend our friend had a twenties/thirties themed party for her thirtieth birthday. I thought that it was such a cute idea for a thirtieth birthday! We had a lot of fun dressing up for the party and then I had fun documenting us with my favourite app: Instagram.
on my way to …
... work! My first ever 'on my way to ...' post was of my walk to work and I posted it around this time last year. Since moving three months ago, my route has changed a little bit and last week, on a particularly clear day, I thought I'd take a few photos to illustrate …
