My college friend and I made plans to meet up for some lunch. We live far away now so it's always difficult to get together, life has been so crazy lately, it was a nice time to catch up! Picture was my outfit of the day:)


I've been quiet these days. Why? Because we moved! We are finally ready for our chimney repair which was damaged last year at Thanks Giving eve and we have moved to a temporary rental house while construction is taking place!

Last weekend was basically crazy with us trying to move most of our belongings to the rental house. I even brought my piano even though I wasn't planning on practicing. It's unbelievable how much crap one can stock up in two years time! Anyway it's all done now. Currently, scaffolds are going up and plasters are coming own at our old house!

My husband and I made it out to the Hollywood Bowl in an effort to add a bit of culture to our lives. We packed a picnic basket with a bottle of champagne for the event. It was quite a lot of fun.

Took a impromptu walk with Kelly, I had no leash on me but I used my handbag strap instead. It worked perfect!

My morning started out right with a Mexican breakfast near my house. The restaurant had an amazing courtyard and live music, plus unlimited champagne came with breakfast!


We finally became pro drinkers here and started making margaritas at home, it's about ten times cheaper than buying at restaurants and bars and so much more delicious! Why didn't we try this earlier?



It's a rare weekend where my husband didn't have to work at all, we watched Woody Allen's new movie Blue Jasmine and did some home construction planning for our house that's coming up very soon. I throughly enjoyed my weekend, and even did a little bit of gardening in the afternoon. This has been such a wonderful weekend!

It's not really peak season in my garden right now, but I picked some flowers this morning for the indoors:)

Stayed at a cabin in the woods over the weekend has made me wanting to do some gardening. This has been a insanely frequent travel year for me, now that I'm finally home I'd like to work in my garden for a little bit.

New Year Preparation

I always like to do a bit of preparation at the end of each year to welcome the new year, although this year things were very challenging, I...
