These beautiful moments No. 1

Yesterday I was watering my beautiful, green, stretching plants with the hose. I let my bare toes curl and uncurl in the grass; my feet stupid-soft from a winter in shoes. The sun was beginning to send slanting shadows and the guinea pigs were behind me in the lawn and the birds were yelling atContinueContinue reading “These beautiful moments No. 1”

What SHE Wore Wednesday

I guess we’re just on a Christine kick around here… http://youtu.be/8y3MHPe6bOI Here’s a video of what she wore when she rolled in from work. But! Then we changed and went downtown to eat burgers.

Ahem. I present: Don’t wear print-on-print. Taught when I wanted to wear my bicycle-print skirtContinueContinue reading “Yesterday is gone. Another day is here. Do something new…”

A Day of Play…in May.

Self-promote? Who? Me? On my own blog? Never. Cough. But! In YOUR interest, here’s something really, really cool which you should think about: Play in a Day. What, what, what is this insanity, you ask? Basically, I’ve invited some of the most disgustingly-talented people I know to gather. I’m just going to throw them togetherContinueContinue reading “A Day of Play…in May.”
