images from a long week



Today, I'm catching up on chores that haven't been done for way too long and so in keeping with my theme for the day, I figured I'd post pictures taken over the course of the week. Catch up on my photographs and a blog post, all in one.

This past weekend, we stayed with friends in San Jose who have an incredibly darling sense of home decor and style. We felt right at home because their apartment is very small and cramped with tons of stuff in it, just like ours. They also have too many cute things everywhere you look. It was really a fun place. I didn't want to seem creepy by photographing everything so, I limited myself to the bathroom curtains and their potted garden, which, now that I think about it might seem like odd choices to most people. Oh well, I can't help being a little obsessive when it comes to admiring cuteness.


Such lovely basil


A neighbor's garden whirlie- adds color


So much mint. I'd like such a vigorous mint plant.


The bathroom curtain


Three little curtain creatures

The rest of the photos in this post were taken today and have nothing to do with our friend's house.


I love this dress and have worn it for a couple of weddings this summer. It's super cute.



Today, I'm making poached fish with papaya salsa. For the salsa, I roasted a few red serranos under my broiler to tame the heat of those spicy creatures. Tasty.

Thanks! =) It really is fun because I put it on and, like magic, I suddenly look cute.
