Last week we thought we were adopting a very Siamese looking little kitty. He unfortunately didn’t make it, which made us very sad after cuddling for a few hours with him this past weekend. So Wolfgang became Viver…his little sister. She’s ridiculously cute and very distracting….
Alright I admit it, when I love a song I just play it ALL THE TIME. And Janelle Monae has been my favorite for a while, so if you haven’t heard about her yet, now it’s time! She’s so refreshing…I love her songs, her style, her moves…big girl’s crush!
I thought her song would be perfect for a Monday. Enjoy!
Introducing what could be our new family member and my lovely super comfy french espadrilles from Madewell.
I apologize for the long break from posting. Sometimes enjoying life takes up so much time that it’s all I want to do. It’s been a busy summer traveling, getting back to real life, trying to grow tomatoes and yes, just enjoying life. I’ve also been working on some exciting new projects that I hope I will be able to soon share with all of you. Among them a cool identity/product with T. from Ultimate Shirt Company, the re-design of “Madebym” website, and a collab with the fascinating and beautiful The PoleStory blog. On the top of a full -time job. But now that it’s out there, it will hopefully force me to sit in front of my lovely computer!
And if posts become a little scarce in the next few weeks, I recommend to sit and read this wonderful book The Madonnas of Echo Park by Brando Skyhorse about…yes, Echo Park not so long ago!
If you haven’t heard about it – yet, we just got back from 2 weeks of traveling in Lebanon. I still cant believe I had to come back…so in one word – GO.
I need to apologize for the quality of some pictures, I got a little too comfortable using my iphone as a camera. Going back to real photography is on my list…as well as getting the new iphone that has a 5MG pixels camera! ah!
Part II of the trip: our stop in Istanbul coming soon….
The big day finally arrived, T & I are leaving for Beirut via Istambul and London! Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…..cant wait to see everyone , discover Lebanon and get lost in Istambul…both scream good food and wonderful people!
Too many swiss chards, some delicious arugula, our first 4 tomatos and 2 strawberries that’s where we are at so far! We’re learning as it grows…what a fun and yummy project!
As we finally finished cleaning up our plot, we celebrated our hard work by planting a blackberry tree! Until then, I’m glad T found this amazing wall filled with blackberries, just hanging there! If you ever make it to our garden before our tree makes delicious T&M made blakcberries…Ill take you there.
After recently getting a big empty envelop in my mail box that looked, for once, like something other than a bill or another RiteAid coupon, I figured it was maybe from my friends Philippe & Yasmine…and it was…and supposed to be a wedding invite. So they sent one back to me and this time all the way from Beirut with giant-me liking-Lebanese stamps! And inside the envelop, a simple and beautiful invite!
Yes, of course we’re coming!
