Friends, we’ve been neglectful. I apologize. The past 10 days have been, shall we say, distracting. Much has gone on, with Jack preparing to move on to new and exciting exploits in the Land of Day Jobs, and our whirlwind tour of Art Basel | Miami Beach this weekend; we’ll do our best to get […]

A very happy turkey day to you and yours, from The Sassiest of Pilgrims. And Jack, too. (Yes, that’s me, age 4, second from left in the front row. Sassin’ it up.)
This weekend was a whirlwind of recipe testing, friends visiting and assisting in birthday celebrations. All of our good intentions to make headway on holiday projects vanished before our eyes – but it was worth it.
Happy Saturday! Friday Fancies slipped through the cracks yesterday, but we were so excited about the opening of Canary Square this weekend that it seemed worthwhile to post today rather than wait for next week. Brought to us by the people behind Allston’s Common Ground and the South End’s Coda, Canary Square has been undergoing […]
Goodwill. Flea markets. Yard sales. Dollar-A-Pound. Clothing swaps. Jack has never been a big fan of the time and tedium involved in sifting through others’ discards in search of treasure; I grew up on it.

Back in June, we shared a few images from the Rio de Janeiro favela of Santa Marta, as the artistic duo Hass&Hahn set about working with residents to create a colorful mural spanning several buildings surround the central square of the neighborhood. Today, CNN picked up the story of Santa Marta – and has included […]

I’m looking forward to seeing how our designs unfold, but after catching a glimpse of these holiday cards by Tomomi Sayuda and kin Design, I’m fairly certain […]
Happy Friday! The clouds over Boston have lifted, and we’re looking forward to a slightly brighter weekend than the past few days. The recent stormy weather has left the roads littered with the last of the fall foliage, and we’re missing the colors already. It was no surprise, then, that the blazing orange and purplish-navy […]
We’ve long been obsessed with purple around here, and I embraced the Color of 2010 (turquoise) fully – but there’s a new color on the scene, popping up in interior design, fashion, beauty and even cars – and I have to admit, I’m rapidly becoming a fan. Fuchsia gets its name from a flower of the […]
Our weekend turned out to include a veritable mini-Thanksgiving – roasted chickens, caramelized brussel sprouts, French onion soup, cranberries on salads, potatoes, pumpkin pie and fresh, homemade bread. Also, not a single photograph was taken. This is regrettable, but frankly the larger preoccupation in our household today is what on earth to do with the […]
