This is one of the two tables I’ve been wanting to refinish that are currently listed over there in the sidebar. I got this little guy off of Craigslist when we first bought our San Diego house and it has…

Sally had these at her place over Christmas and I used them to eat an entire cheese ball. I was both thrilled and angry to discover them at Wal-Mart because I’ve been using them as the perfect cheese delivery system…

Even more framing

Posted on: February 24, 2011 Last updated on: September 29, 2023 Written by: Reese Dixon

Hibernation

Posted on: January 12, 2011 Last updated on: September 29, 2023 Written by: Reese Dixon

2011 Year of Pleasures #1

Posted on: January 4, 2011 Last updated on: September 29, 2023 Written by: Reese Dixon
This time of year is so fun because the kitties turn extra fuzzy as they grow their winter coats. Jem, our little gray cat, grows little points off the side of her cheeks we call her wings. Cheetara would grow…

2010 Year of Pleasures #45

Posted on: November 16, 2010 Last updated on: October 5, 2023 Written by: Reese Dixon
I love ice cream, but usually only for a few bites at a time. I’m a fickle ice cream lover, and by the time it starts to melt I’m often done with it anyway. When I was spoiling myself in…

Letterpress Extravaganza

Posted on: November 15, 2010 Last updated on: October 5, 2023 Written by: Reese Dixon
Last year sometime I bought this gorgeous print off of Etsy, and then was bummed out for months when I discovered that it got lost in the move. I so vividly remember carefully packing it in a folder, making sure…

I had a different topic for this post in mind, but when I looked up the date and realized we’re almost through May already, I needed to toss it out for a mini-existential breakdown. Whew. Time, eh? I love hearing…

We Can Do It

I’ve spent the entire last six weeks sewing my heart out. Sustainably at first, just one project among many I’d spend my time on. A little ironing here, a little sewing there. When I started, people were still scoffing at…
