happy {spring forward} weekend...

As a working mom and a devoted member of the "people who sleep >5 hours a night and are also 'morning people' are crazy" club, I don't take losing an hour of sleep lightly.  But, can I get a woot-woot for day-light savings this weekend?  I mean, I am o.v.e.r. dark winter nights (for all you northerners, I use the term 'winter' here loosely.  Sorry some of you still have snow on the ground.  Come visit...the redbuds are blooming!).

Here's to dinners on the porch and longer days for little {and big} weasels to play outside.

Links to love...

The March*April issue of Lonny is live!  Yay!

I love these.  {confession: they make me ridiculously happy}

It's pricey, but works magic on those pesky under-eye circles.

Still loving Wayne Pate prints.  Dylan has one in his room and loves it too.  Kid approved.

These beige summer sandals are comfy and go with everything in my closet.  Plus, they're less than $100.

These easy, breezy hair tutorials make me miss my long hair.

Japan

What terrible, horrible news.  I am heartbroken for the people of Japan and hope that we can all find a way to help.

so many things, so little time...

So, I left you with another unexplained period of blog silence, didn't I?  Ah, well.  Trying my best to scurry back to a state of normalcy, but I'm being rather stubborn and lazy-ish lately.  Forgive me.  It seems like there are so many things to do and so little time in which to do them.   Paul and I have both been busy at work and also digging our heads into home projects.  I'm hoping to share some of the things we've been doing, including Paul's new website and the French couch I snagged last weekend.  Stay tuned!

Today, I'm loving the sunny, warm rooms of designer Stephen Pardy's London home {via Ill Seen, Ill Said}.  I'd give my left pinkie toe for those kitchen windows.  (Always hated my pinkie toes anyway)
