Views of California from the road…

Rocky and I have been on the road for what seems like three days straight. Driving down to my parents house in Southern California was particularly beautiful this time. Perhaps I’ve never been down the I-5 in spring? The hills are green and the clouds were particularly puffy. Just such a nice treat for the [...]

Auf Wiedersehen San Francisco…

I am so sorry for being out of touch lately. It’s been crazy this week… going around the city doing things, and feeling like I still have tons to do.
This isn’t my first international move, in 2000 I moved from San Francisco to London, and three years later I returned. So, I’m feeling like this [...]

Moving Sale : Saturday

If you’re in San Francisco… stop by and meet me, I’ll be having a moving sale in front of my building. I tried to do the eBay thing, and as easy as it was, I still had a difficult time getting everything together and mailing… etc.
So I’ll have a lot of my wares,  things I [...]

I’m selling all my stuff and moving to Germany

It’s true. I bought the ticket, turned in my notice at work. I’ll be leaving in March…
Going to Europe for love, and for love of adventure. You know, I thought I’d never fall in love again, nor would I ever leave San Francisco… It goes to show how vivid my imagination is. But everything seems [...]

How bloggers actually live in real life is something that really interests me. Recently Bits and Bobbins was featured on Design [...]

Grandma’s House

Today, after 47 years of living in their modernist Eichler home in Sunnyvale, California, my grandparents, Bea & Ralph, are moving to Hawaii. It’s a strange feeling, because my whole life, they have been there. Yesterday, I was saying ’see you later’ it was bittersweet, because it’s the end of an era in my [...]

Meeting other bloggers in real life…

Last night, I met up with Natalie from Coquette… it was so nice to meet up with another great blogger and chit chat about love, life, and yeah, blogging. I was a mess from working all day, but she looked radiant! She also gave a couple of issues of Craft Magazine, and I have to [...]

I’m showing you my closet….

Usually, you would have to do something really special to get a peek into my closet. As you can see, it’s a total mess. I gave away SIX bags of clothes, and still nothing would fit in there. My boyfriend asked if he could have some closet space, so I tried clearing even more out, [...]

Post It

Last night, my boyfriend had an open studio party at his work, and I saw this on his desk. He said, ‘They are post-its in love.’
I just thought it was so cute, and a nice Friday snippet to share.

Tiery eyed question…

Yesterday Aidan (who brought us the The Frock) and I went vintage shopping, at Mixed Use in North Beach, I found this pink & white tiered number. I’m telling you, it is love. So much so, that I need to have more tiered attire in my wardrobe! The black mini, I got at thrifting [...]
