a collection of things that make me smile 

Bluebird Guesthouse

I have had my eye on this guesthouse in Portland for over a year now. I love the character and vintage furniture. It's so warm and appealing. I'm already planning the trip in my head.

BFF

Josh and I met about 10 years ago. He holds the title of being the friend I've known the longest and also the friend that's the closest to me.

Everyone needs a Josh. But you can't have mine.

Napkin Doodles

Writing and drawing on napkins can be such a necessity. At lunch yesterday I used my chopstick with dabs of peanut sauce on a napkin to illustrate the layout of our new office. Paper what?

Snail Tour

When I was in University, my good friend Lauren and I would talk about taking a trip to Europe.

I don't remember why, but we dubbed it Snail Tour. It probably came from some delirium during a late night study session drinking insane amounts of coffee and eating sugary snacks. We doodled snails in the margins of our notebooks and talked about which countries we would see.

In 2006, Snail Tour happened. I spotted these snails today and thought of exploring new places. And how I love Italy.

Yes

I have a soft spot in my heart for typewriters and letterpress. This lovely find on etsy is a deadly combination.

Journey

Wherever you go, go with all your heart ~ Confucius

I found this flower during a walk through Noe Valley. I don't know what it is, but it was so vibrant and open.

Falling in Love

Discovering a new band is like developing a crush. You feel like you have a delicious secret that is all your own.

Wes Anderson Trailer

My very cool and hip friend Jason pointed me to this awesome trailer for a (fake) Wes Anderson Film Festival. Brilliant!

Take Heart

An email excerpt from a dear friend:

Life isn't lived in success...it's lived in the tiny moments that are whatever they are.  Trying to force them to be otherwise, thinking that they need to be something else is a guaranteed recipe for disappointment.  You are lovely.  Your life is lovely.  But I can't prove it.  You have to.  In the end, our lives will be a collection of what we each made of them.  Capsules of moments that delighted us, made us afraid, captured our attention, and showed us we are holy and magical.  We each decide if we are willing to be responsible for the people we are.  In the end, this is all but a dream anyway...you have nothing to lose, dear one...and you need no one's permission but your own.
