a dreaded sunny day.

this week it stopped raining long enough to go check out bonaventure cemetery {finally}. i'm excited to go back again once it's warmer out.

a great beacon light of hope.

i got this little brooch at an antique store a few months ago and i love it so much.

brrr.

drinking cocoa.
wearing slippers.
wrapped in a blanket.
sitting right next to the space heater.
winter has come to the south.

cherry and east.

i'm going to be spending my weekends working at this cute new modern home store called cherry and east! they are the only purveyor of jonathan adler, dwell studio, missoni home and marimekko in the savannah area and i'm excited to work surrounded by such beautiful things.

2 or 3 things.

1) this is a picture that i took with my camera phone on a rainy veterans day morning. i love it.

2) tomorrow is my last day of class until the middle of march. i am both very excited and extremely terrified.

3) that's it.

in motion.

this weekend i attended a performance of nick cave's soundsuits and it was amazing. seeing them static in a gallery or a book doesn't quite portray the energy they give off while flailing about.

late october.

from my walk to school down my favorite savannah street.

look forward to fall.

it will probably be 90 degrees here until december, but a girl can dream can't she!?

i just came here to say, WHY WON'T IT STOP RAINING!? geeze.

80's and 90's all week and i'm loving it.

adler and doonan.

today is going to be a good day because i'm going to see both of these handsome men speak, one after the other. and then tomorrow....i'm going back to philly! i'm sooooo excited for a weekend family, friends, fun and food!

p.s. this was GREAT! they were both really funny and said "groovy" a lot and it was really inspiring and their dog licked my hand. :D

propulsion party.

homemade rockets; it's what all the cool kids are doing!

{sorry about the side-ways-ness of the video, i got too excited to care.}

sous les paves, la plage.

it's spring break and i want to go on an adventure!

monday poem.

from two cards found at savannah's @ home.

one on one.

i've always loved david hockney's etchings. artist and model, half-ground etching, soft-ground etching, & sugar-lift aquatint; 1973-74.

hot & cold.

savannah can't seem to decide whether or not it's winter or spring. this is my new look inspiration for those in-between days.

light lane!

this is the COOLEST! light lane projects a crisply defined virtual bike lane onto pavement, using a laser, providing the driver with a familiar boundary to avoid. with a wider margin of safety, bikers will regain their confidence to ride at night, making the bike a more viable commuting alternative. it still seems to be in the brainstorming stage, but i'd sure like one. riding around in savannah at night can be pretty unsafe due to the lack of established bike lanes, minmal street lights and the huge overhanging trees and this looks like a fun fix!

the small object.

the small object is run by local savannonian sarah neuburger. she makes cute clothes pin people, stamps of doodles, kraft paper stickers and these adorable embossed reply notes! it seems like she takes part in the savannah market bazaar and i can't wait to see her goods in person!
