Happy Turkey!

I won't be celebrating Thanksgiving wearing this hat (cause it's gonna be 72 in Nashville!  And, it's just silly), but I will be in a festive mood.  Nothing makes me happier than celebrating with food.  Bring it.

108 Wyckoff

Oh, Brooklyn!  How I shall miss you!  Don't get me wrong, I'm very excited to move on the the world of driveways and backyards, but I just don't know if I'll be encountering scenes like these on neighborhood walks in the 'burbs.

A statement necklace is the perfect answer to dressing when your wardrobe is in flux.  And when you want to make a statement.

How much more inspired would my work be if it was produced at a desk like this?

I could make that

Or could I?  I'm about to find out.  Hopefully, the time to move into my new house is this weekend!  Our overwhelming lack of furniture and house objects in general, plus lack of excitement for shelling out big bucks makes me ask, could I make that? about everything I come across.  I think I could replicate the over saturation of this ABC color reform rug by dying over a lightly colored oriental rug.  And the Marc Phillips rug would involve me getting all Jackson Pollack in the backyard.  It will be an experiment!

mid century AWESOME

These cross stitch patterns are so ridiculously amazing.  Too bad I would never actually stitch them.  I hope they'll start selling them fully stitched.

Commence commemorative hurricane Ts.

Humor in the Month of November

My dad alerted me to this New Yorker cover.  I've had the Norman Rockwell poster hanging in my childhood bedroom for years.  Glad they picked up the reference for a good cause!

Aftermath

It's amazing to see all these dramatic photos of the storm, especially since my neighborhood in Park Slope had it easy.  I say good morning and goodnight to Jane's Carousel as I pass on the Q train every day.  I've never seen it like this.  I hope this gem didn't get damaged too badly.
