russia in color:

i'm sure that these have been circulating for a while, but i love these photos of early 20th century russia in color. especially the portraits.

upcoming:

jónsi tour trailer from Jónsi on Vimeo.

got tickets to see jónsi in october with my baby sis. also sufjan stevens. can't wait.

breakfast:

spoiling myself this morning with a delicious breakfast for one: grapefruit juice, homemade focaccia, and a fried egg with pesto.

how i spent my weekend:

floating the river. also, bathing in same river.

loving:

monét's new postcard sets, just listed in darcy's etsy shop, you're in maine... and not just because there are so many bits of my home and my person featured in the snapshots!

a great day:

involving public transportation, the matisse as printmaker exhibit, and a dinner-in-the-making that smells delicious -- lemon butter shrimp pasta and an arugula salad with figs and walnuts. mmm.

road trip:

 some portraits.

calling all sugar daddies/mammas:

i want this pretty rachel comey dress to wear to an upcoming hawaiian wedding!

lounging:

i spend an inordinate amount of time thinking about where i'd like to be lounging. this chaise set from terrain looks so enticing... and expensive.

thankfully, i'm going to spend most of my weekend on a similar one in "pleasure town," reading and sunning and spending time with my little niece and nephew and crazy family.

sprouted kitchen:

bradley and i have tried a few of the recipes over at sprouted kitchen and have yet to be disappointed. last night we made the summer corn soup with shrimp, with just a few tweaks (a little more lime and roasted poblano, a little less shrimp). it was so delicious that i made myself a second helping, which induced a sort of food-coma.

best enjoyed with a chilled glass of vinho verde and a documentary.
