{Thanksgiving dinner.} It's been a busy two weeks! We had a wonderful time in Whistler and have been enjoying having Nick's folks here this week. Our kitchen sink isn't functional right now, which is a bit frustrating, but that's when you have to look even harder for small joys. {Brownies that Nick made on a …

{Candles make grey weather so much more cozy.} This week started out beautifully, with our impromptu trip to Victoria. It's ending on a super busy note, but that's just the way things are! I'm hoping that after this weekend I'll be on the homestretch in current freelance work. We have a relaxing evening planned and …

{Because, we've needed them lately and I'm glad that I bought them last year.} It's been a pretty good week, but a bit crazy! It's officially fall today, though it's felt that way for a week or two already. I've decided that the ol' blog header needed some new clothes for the season (and probably …

{Having morning coffee in bed on a week day is pretty luxurious.} This week has flown by. I managed to get quite a bit of work done this week, will fitting in some exercise and a bit of fun, too! This weekend will be pretty low key and I'm actually okay with the rain in …

{Last night's dinner was delicious! (You can see more photos here.) Nick cooked and Laura made dessert. We said good bye to Maia who's heading back to Montreal to resume law school. We'll miss you!} This week was a quick but productive one! I've started a few new projects that I'm really excited about. The …

1. A book I worked really hard on came back from the printer. The photography, by Margaret Davis, is absolutely gorgeous! The colour correction was a major challenge but the result was totally worth it. It's a book I'm super proud of. 2. When we went to Denman Island last week I got to find …

1. This poster from Ork Posters arrived before we went to Edmonton but I framed it last weekend. I love it and think it's an awesome graphic piece for our living room. 2. Putting mint in ice cubes made a (brief) spell of hot weather, just a little more luxurious. Pouring cold water from a …

1. Nick. He's not small nor is the amount of joy he brings to my life but he has to be included in this week's post. I had a super busy week as you may have noticed from the blog radio silence and he kept me fed and sane all week. I'm a very lucky girl. 2. …
