Photo Love






Yesterday, I stumbled upon Laurn Randolph's lovely photography.
Her work is amazing.
You should really check out more of it here.

I still believe in fairytales.

Somebody's Hero

This was part of my Christmas present to my momma.

And yes, it made us both cry.

Tummy Full of Cookies

Yesterday, I made some of the best cookies ever.

Chocolate chip cookies are my absolute favorite dessert! However, since becoming vegan over a year ago, I had yet to make myself a vegan batch. I bought this wonderful book and have made several yummy things out of it, but had yet to make cookies from it.

If you're like me, cookies are a big part of the holidays for you. So tonight I whipped up a back of chocolate chip cookies! And let me tell you, the are delicious! So soft and chewy and mm mm good!

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas Eve!

Can You Believe It?!

When did it get this close to Christmas?!

It snuck up on me. Even though the ground is a sparkly white, I have a stack of wrapped packages, a soynog cheesecake in my fridge (which was made with Ener-G instead of eggs), a decorated Christmas tree, and Bing Crosby Christmas music on, it still feels like weeks away!

But no, it's in three days!

I need a boost to get into the Christmas spirit!
Any ideas?

Dear Future Husband,

You should probably know that I really like being cozy in the winter. I burry myself in blankets on the couch with hot tea in hand all the time.

Also, I watch a lot more tv than is probably healthy.

I give mini concerts in the car, because I can't help singing along to the radio.

I only subscribe to two magazines, but I read about ten every month. Which means, I spend way too much money on cover prices.

But the most important thing you should know is no matter who you are or where you are right now, I love you already.

Baby Fever


Baby fever is not something I have in any way shape or form. However, three of my friends have now married and all got pregnant with lovely little girls! While I'm not interested in having children anytime soon, I do enjoy living a little vicariously through them.
This weekend I got to celebrate a baby shower for one of my oldest friends (we go back to pre-k t-ball days!).
Enjoy the tiny bit of vicarious baby fever with me :)

Today

Today, I will keyword all my photographs.
(Which I've been needing to do since June.)

Today, I will bake holiday goodies for my friends.

Today, I will finish watching "Adam".
(Which I've had from Netflix for four months.
Thank goodness for no late fees!)


Today, I will finish editing my photos from my little brother's birthday, Thanksgiving, decorating the Christmas tree, and other fun events.

Today, I will attempt to part with old magazines and put them in the recycling.
(Which is nearly impossible for me, because I will hoard fashion magazines like crazy.)

Today, I will catch up on all the blogs I'm falling behind on reading.

Today, I will buy a lovely little gift for my equally lovely friend's upcoming baby shower.

Sharpie and Studio Lights


A few months ago I had the greatest opportunity to model for Raechel Hawkinson, who also happens to be my best friend of nearly 17 years.
She had this idea of taking words often used to describe strong women and placing them on a woman in interesting ways. This is her beautiful result.

New York, I Love You

{photo via for me, for you}
They say home is where the heart is.
My heart is in New York.
And I miss it something bad.
