winter is upon us

thanks heath for sending this along.

i always love when friends pass tidbits my way. there just so much out there. 

from photos of kids scared at santa, weird family photos or stories of bullying kids...

when you find a good one, its good to promote and re promote

so with that said, this one is great. scotish snow and angelic tones.

enjoy. and happy wednesday.

Rob & Alicia same day premiere from AQUA VIVUS on Vimeo.

look no further...the same day  premiere of rob & alicia dumont's wedding footage is here!

[shot by aqua vivus productions]

a truly organic, free flowing and fabulous event

remember back to when I shared these delightful hops & barley invitations....

well, this past sunday, we celebrated the dumont nuptials at the smog shoppe in LA

this wedding...

so incredible. everything was fab

the venue, mismatched chairs, sliders, french fry bar, handmade cakes

personalized cocktails, clay potted succulents, formal attire and

musical geniuses by none other than  michaela meyers, herself

take a look and enjoy!

delightful winter vegetables

brussel sprouts that is...

served just right with
homemade chicken lentil vegetable soup & buttered grained sourdough toast
winter has met its match

evergreen stamps

well arent these special

...

as i stood in line at the post office last week

arms, tired of holding packages

body, hot from the 80 degree heat wave we've been having and

mind, racing after focusing on the little girl continually coughing onto the counter,

i noticed a sign advertising the new holiday evergreen forever stamps

45 minutes of waiting turned positive!

eureka! 

what a find!

stamps adorned needles and cones!

not 45c, 47c, 49c but forever!

with my beloved ponderosa pines not to mention the eastern red cedar, blue spruce and balsam fir!

"despite the cost, I'll take 2 books!"
