DIY: MOSS DOTS

a couple years ago i made some moss boxes for our bedroom. i woke up today with an itch to be crafty and came up with these little moss dot dudes to hang on the wall

here's how i made them

being a craft supply hoarder comes in handy for impromptu weekend DIYing

now i just need to find somewhere to put these guys

PETTING ZOO PARTY

i've mentioned before that my happy place is a petting zoo - and chris knows when it's time to revisit that happy place (usually somewhere in-between the four back to back weeks of fashion month)

so when mid september hit we high-tailed it to visit our favorite animals at the petting zoo in long island. i can think of few things better than an afternoon feeding clifford the giraffe, posing with llamas, and giving hugs to unsuspecting baby goats.

baby goats need hugs too

THIN HAIR DON'T CARE

CHEESEBURGER HELPS

really thought i was going to have jay and mo's blanket done by now, but in typical me fashion - when i put it together last weekend i decided it needed to be bigger and better.

so, now i'm going back to making more squares to turn this bad boy from being a cool afghan to a kick ass blanket. or at least that's the plan

ROADSIDE ATTRACTION

another weekend brings another adventure. we're heading upstate after work today with a small group of amazing people 

have a great weekend!

SOMETIMES STRANGE THINGS HAPPEN AT WORK

singing gorilla telegrams would be one of those strange things

MOM PARTY

my mom came to visit for a long weekend back in august.

we walked around the city, she cleaned up at a R29 beauty sale, and we spent a day drinking cocktails on the beach.

really wish i lived closer to my family - would love to have more weekends like this on the reg

MY BOO AND HIS BOARD

chris is heading to montauk with moose this weekend for a dudes surfing date. sure i'll miss him, but that also means i have the house to myself. and two full snore-free nights.

WAIT, IS IT SUMMER AGAIN?

with this little heat wave we've got going on in brooklyn right now i figured i might as well keep these water themed posts going for at least one more day

i'd give at least $100 (probably much more) to be in this pool right now.

KEEP CALM AND BLOG ON

four years ago today i started this blog as a way to push myself to take and publish photos on the reg. 

now 859 posts deep 'cheese popcorn is delish' has become my very own visual diary.  sure i've slowed down with posting over the years, and sometimes think i'm wasting my time. but other times when i'm bored and i scroll through a random month from a past year it makes it all worth it.

do you remember what you did in november 2009? what about april 2010 or june 2011? march 2012?

no? not to brag or anything, but i do.
