Yum

Looks like this is what I’ll be making for dinner…with some fresh pico de gallo, and maybe some guacamole. Mmm…

Worldly

I would like to have a vintage globe for my husband’s office at home {um…or just for me!}. Don’t these look so academic?

Good Toast

TOAST’s Fall catalogue is the epitome of a-u-t-u-m-n! I would like all of these lovely outfits please:

Mocs

Just bought these. Cannot wait until the weather cools down enough for me to wear them {yes, I think Mocs are cool}. Thorough comparison of current Mocs found here.

Remains of Summer

I wish. {Unfortunately} summer here lasts until mid-October. Sad. But this outfit makes the summer a little more bearable.

Little bunbuns

These are just sooo cute! They remind of me of the Totoro-like figurines I made in my art/ceramic classes. I’m going to have to buy some of these cute little bunbuns!

Domino Effect

I know that talk of this book has already made the rounds in the blogosphere, yet I couldn’t help but post about the new Domino decorating book, too. It comes out on October 14th and I am pre-ordering mine now. I too, thought the cover would be quite different: more modern, less girly (?). But I happen to love the design and color combos of this cover anyway.

Denmark Dandies

Wish I had as much style as these lovelies from Copenhagen… Love their vintage-looking leather jackets. Oh and the navys + blacks, and the polka dot skirt….

Etsy Finds

Aren’t these vintage cameras wonderful? Wonder how their photos turn out?

Cookies with Secrets

Right now I’m baking these cookies.

Yum!

Yum!

Hope they turn out just as perfect…

{Secrets: chill dough for 24 - 36 hours; sea salt!}

*Update: Wow! These came out crunchy on the outside and chewy soft on the inside! These are probably the best batch of choco-chip cookies I’ve ever baked (I know, sadly, that’s not saying a whole lot!).
