Meet my new variegated Monstera. I had to get on a waiting list for this guy! This weekend is shaping up to be a hot one, but a fun one! We’re celebrating the wedding of some old friends, which also means we get to host some other old friends who are in town for it. […]
Weekend Inspiration
Last weekend we visited Horsetail Fall and Ponytail Falls, where we hiked up behind the upper falls. (It was easier than it sounds.) This weekend is looking like it’ll be a good one, too. We’re going to hit up a cat benefit at local hard cider brewery Reverend Nat’s, and see the new Ghostbusters and Star Trek […]
Weekend Inspiration
Happy Friday! I’ve been craving some outdoor activities lately, so I’m thinking of going on a hike in the woods this weekend. You wouldn’t believe how many waterfalls there are within an hour of my house, and I really have no excuse not to visit them more often. Oh wait, my excuse is that I’m […]

Sigh, lately if it’s not one thing, it’s another. The shocking news of the terrorist attack in Nice, France, are just heartbreaking. It will surely be in my thoughts this weekend.

Sometimes I see people talk about how they […]
Weekend Inspiration
This weekend is practically guaranteed to be better than last weekend, isn’t it? So many people have been hurting in the last week, people who didn’t even know anyone in Orlando, but are nevertheless sharing the pain. I can only hope that out of the sadness and anger, we’ll finally find the courage to make real […]

Photo from my instagram As usual, I’ve got some DIY projects to tackle this weekend, but NYC shop In God We Trust is opening a store just a few blocks from my house in North Portland, so maybe I’ll stop by their trunk sale tomorrow (6/11). Sew a super simple linen apron. This neutral mobile […]

Now that June is here, I thought I’d recap my May projects and recipes, because I did some fun DIYs in the last month that you might’ve missed. If you’re looking for a weekend project to do or recipe to try, maybe one of these will strike your fancy. What will I be working on this […]
