I recently took a trip to Kinokuniya for some Japanese crochet books, but as always, I left the bookstore with more than I’d planned. I think anyone interested in art, design, or fashion should go to Kinokuniya, and especially if you’re into Japanese art, design, or fashion. There are so many incredible books [...]

I apologize for the slowing of posts lately. Much of my time has been consumed by the upcoming move to *The Beast. We spent this weekend painting, and one of the colors came out a bit more feminine than intended, so we now have a pale pink living room. Not that it [...]

On Sunday, we rode our bikes to the new Flora Grubb Gardens location. What a gorgeous nursery. I was clutching my heart, pining for an actual house with an actual yard. Or at least a porch that gets a bit of sun. Anything.
San Francisco, why do you taunt me with your [...]
