This post from Say Yes to Hoboken reminded me that I hadn’t posted pictures of my redone dining room, specifically this arrangement on top of my sideboard:
I bought the flashcards on etsy a few years ago (from a now defunct shop,) and just framed them a few months ago. Pictures of the rest of the [...]
I picked up the stainless steel set at an estate sale last fall, so when I spotted the yellow set at the Alameda Flea Market a few weeks ago I had to have them too. Luckily, they only set me back $15. Score.
What was up with the Alameda Flea Market (also known, affectionately, as the crap fair) today? hardly anyone, either vendors or shoppers was there. It was very very odd – I suspect some sort of combination of the Super Bowl and the predicted rain that failed to happen. Anyways, I did manage to pick up [...]
Yesterday I finally got my dining room “office” set up.

She was nice enough to interview me for it, and managed to make me not sound like a blathering idiot, a mark of a very good journalist indeed. There are also pictures of Maggie’s (of Mighty Girl) baby’s [...]
It has been really hot here lately (88 degrees today,) which means that it’s totally time to break out the iced tea pitchers. Pitchers are great – much to T.’s chagrin I’ve started somewhat of a collection of them. My favorite place to look for pitchers? eBay of course. Here are some of my current [...]

vintage white glass tray, $20
vintage DeCesari metal tray, $9
super cute vintage basket, $6
pristine vintage tissue holder, $8
fancy vintage [...]
Yay! After months of searching craigslist for some kind of bar cart with style and personality (and in my price range) I found one with the help of my new favorite thing, listpic (which I wrote about here.)
It’s pretty much exactly what I was looking for – two levels, so that most of the bottles [...]
