What happened to the sunny September weather? It’s freezing cold outside all the sudden. At least I have a new tweed coat from Macy’s to keep me warm: Tweed Coat – Basically the same as my new coat. I think mine is by Esprit of all things? Sweater – Red cable knit cashmere…you know you…

I’m about 100 pages into this book about scandal and high society in San Francisco. Oh the Glory of it All is written by Sean Wilsey, stepson of the famous socialite Dede Wilsey. (You may remember Dede from earlier this month when she sponsored Opera in the Park). Thanks to Kate and mom for passing…

My mom asked a few days ago if I wanted anything particular for my birthday “aside from all the things you talk about on the blog.” I could see how picking out a present for me could be confusing. While I love all the things I post about, I don’t necessarily have room for them…

Have I mentioned that fall is my favorite season of the year? And that October is my favorite month of my favorite season? October brings pumpkins, costumes, candy, parties and my birthday! Sure, we’re still a few days away from October, but I’m already excited! I really like this skeleton invitation for Halloween from Meri…

I’ve been watching more TV than usual lately due to the limitations of my rump injury. Rob and I both like the Discovery Channel so we watch a lot of MythBusters when we are home. And this is where I have found my latest crush! It’s so embarrassing, but I definitely have developed a thing…

On a cold foggy day like this, wouldn’t you just love to be holed up in a tiny cabin with a good book? And a wool blanket…and couple of pugs…and a box of See’s candy! For about $40,000 you can have your own 400 square foot cedar cabin delivered to your doorstep from Sherpa Cabins…

I love the concept behind these pumpkin designs from Martha Stewart. Using the appropriate wood gouges it doesn’t seem like it would be utter lunacy. It might be cute as “lanterns” for a dinner party centerpiece. I’m a bit of a traditionalist though, I would probably decide at the last minute to go with something…

With the right pair of cute jeans, a messenger bag and an ipod, this would just the right thing to wear on the bus in San Francisco. (Click here to see the jacket on a better model, much cuter in action). It’s very “graphic designer on the way to Valencia Street for Moroccan food.” And…

These Italian ceramic baking pans caught Nicole’s eye at Sur La Table over the weekend. Nicole wanted the set of three pans in red for $79.95 for her Christmas present. But I just found the same set in orange for only $47! Nicole, are you flexible on the color? They are such lovely pans! I…

Rob and I woke Nicole up fairly early Saturday morning. We all got dressed and then drove across town to help her buy a pair of baseball tickets. Back home quickly to drop off the car before heading downtown. It was the day of the Macy’s Passport Sale and we had some serious shopping ahead…
