Perspective — Foodie Was Here
http://foodiewashere.com/2012/04/05/perspective
April 5, 2012. I’ve been looking through these photos a lot lately. My mom fell sick this past December and I’ve spent the last few months trying to reconcile the frail, fragile person she’s become with the young, vibrant lady in this photo. Anyway. I don’t mean to be maudlin. Last week my mom left for Portland, both to be nearer to my sister and to receive the quality of care she needs. She’s not quite out of the woods yet, but for the first time in months I feel hopeful and life...Apr 5, 2012 8:54 am.

A Los Angeles Love: Dessert is for Eating
http://www.alosangeleslove.com/2010/05/dessert-is-for-eating.html
A Los Angeles Love. Independent-Minded Living, Loving and Marrying in Los Angeles. Friday, May 7, 2010. Dessert is for Eating. I care about aesthetics. I admit to myself that (some of) the details matter. But that doesn't mean that the important details matter aesthetically. In fact, it only matters that they're right. Whatever that means to you. Case in point: dessert. Wedding Cake-as-Art by Fantasy Frostings. Wedding cake with fresh blueberries that I want to EAT RIGHT NOW via Fantasy Frostings. For co...

A Los Angeles Love: Envy
http://www.alosangeleslove.com/2010/06/envy.html
A Los Angeles Love. Independent-Minded Living, Loving and Marrying in Los Angeles. Wednesday, June 23, 2010. Boo hoo, I know. My budget is actually pretty substantial in the grand scheme of the world but, with LA pricing and 150 people, it turns out we're having a pretty bare bones affair. And, because I've been researching venue alternatives like crazy over the last few weeks, I've been feeling exactly. How bare those bones really are, especially in comparison with other people's weddings. We are not ot...

The Office Bride: A Book Themed Wedding
http://theofficebride.blogspot.com/2010/12/wedding-recap-book-themed-wedding.html
Thursday, December 2, 2010. A Book Themed Wedding. The Office Husband and I are huge book nerds. My dad was a printer by trade in his earlier years, and that's where I grew to love and appreciate a well made book. And the Office Groom always has a new book or magazine in his hand, which he probably got after one of our many visits to Indigo. Library cards were used as table numbers. You can find them on Etsy easily! This was my favourite detail. To add a personal touch, we handmade these bookmarks fo...

DIY hates me, and so can you | Another Damn Wedding
http://www.anotherdamnwedding.com/2010/05/26/diy-hates-me-and-so-can-you
A blog about a stranger's dumb wedding. DIY hates me, and so can you. May 26, 2010. Far be it from me to turn this into a DIY tutorial blog but, um. That’s what I’m doing today. See, I made these favors for the bridal shower? They were wine bottle corks. This is pretty much what they looked like when they were done:. I’m going to tell you how I made ’em. In all the gritty, sweaty, unholy* detail. Are you ready? The only problem was, they were selling for about $30.* You know what? Oh sure, Anthro can be ...

A blog about a stranger's dumb life. May 23, 2012. But here’s the thing. Um. I kind of did this thing where I built in extra time on the front of my trip. I figured I could, you know. Land in Detroit the first night, spend time with one of my aunts, and then maybe the next day… you know. Ahem. Meet with some people. You know, before making the drive north to see the rest of my family. If you should happen to be an interested party, please email me. I'm on Twitter and Instagram, in case this pleases you.

ten eleven ten: It's Time
http://teneleventen.blogspot.com/2011/11/its-time.html
Monday, November 28, 2011. It's time to say goodbye to this blog. It's been time for a while but life has gotten in the way and I haven't had time to write a proper goodbye post. Before I officially sign off, I wanted to share a few photos from our first anniversary:. We had leftover wedding cake in the freezer (not the whole top tier but a few extra pieces) but we hadn't wrapped it correctly because it had some serious freezer burn. Oops! So I picked up a couple of cupcakes from Butter Lane. One day we ...

Picture in a Frame: dressy time!
http://putyourpictureinaframe.blogspot.com/2011/04/dressy-time.html
Picture in a Frame. April 1, 2011. Oops sorry, I promised and didn't deliver. but husband time blog time. Ok so remember miss multi-talented bridesmaid Shawntel? Here's the gift she gave me at my bridal shower:. She hand drew and watercolored this illustration of me in my dress with my hair and veil all done. I'm so in love with it! So I told my girls grey/silver knee-length-ish dresses. Go! It was cold so tights/cardis were recommended. It worked out so well! And a peek at me! It had a v-neck, cap sleev...

The Office Bride: Jamaica Fun!
http://theofficebride.blogspot.com/2010/12/jamaica-fun.html
Monday, December 20, 2010. A while back, the Office Husband and I had seriously considered Jamaica as our honeymoon destination. We ended up going to Tuscany instead (amazing, will have to post about that soon), but we managed to get a taste of the Caribbean a few months later, just a couple of weeks ago! Yup, what was suppose to be a December weekend in NY with my brothers, their ladies, and us, ended up being a weekend in Jamaica, lol! And it was AWESOME! December 20, 2010 at 12:19 PM. A typical day for.

The Office Bride: Oh-So-Delicious-Cupcakes
http://theofficebride.blogspot.com/2010/11/wedding-recap-oh-so-delicious-cupcakes.html
Monday, November 29, 2010. It has been a while.I know. But would you believe that it has also been one of the busiest months EVER at work? I returned to Toronto completely rejuvenated and relaxed from a wonderful honeymoon, and was welcomed back with loads of assignments, late hours at the office, and work-related headaches. Today it's all about the cupcakes. Mainly because for the next two weeks I've promised myself not to have any junk food (I've gained weight since the wedding.seriously? We had so man...
