If you don’t like the weather, wait a minute, but the next couple of days are likely to be misty and grey like today in Boston. When Henrik Uldalen’s oil paintings came across my monitor, they felt fitting next to the watery non-view from my window. The light palette and abstracted breakdown in the otherwise impeccable portraits […]

New England summer, you’re a lovely thing. Autumn’s not too shabby either. (Yesterday’s 36 degree morning, however, made me want to throw a tantrum. We’re not ready!) We’ve been tackling house projects so we can get back to business as usual, and working on a site overhaul, Don’t Take Pictures, and wedding invitations to boot. […]
Last night Jack and I had a chance to break away from the house work to hang out with some of our favorite local bloggers (and meet new friends) at Highball Lounge (which was lovely) while making funny faces with The Danger Booth (which was a riot). Thank you to the ever-amazing hosts, Kate and […]
Have you ever had a game that became such a time sink that you had to completely delete the app to break free? Bloons was one of those for me; then came Dots. When Damien Hirst’s Flumequine came across my screen the other day, I nearly re-installed the game. I resisted, but barely. If you’re […]
We’ve been in marathon mode for a while now, and have loved watching our Boston poster pop up in Etsy treasuries and around the web; when Lindsey at More Awesomer reached out to ask us to join a Boston-themed giveaway of local goodies, we jumped at the chance.

We’ve been riding a long weekend wave of celebrations, and were so fortunate to spend it with so many amazing friends. Jack turned 30, the world kept spinning and we’re cleaning up and moving forward this week. Cheers! amazing group selfie credit: Geoff Celis
It’s officially April, and today felt this close to spring. Even if New England weather is refusing to relent, runners the world over have entered their taper for the Boston Marathon; having been one of those runners, early April marks spring and marathon season no matter what. This year is more emotional than most, and […]
This week, we’re smitten with the lovable lamp from Adam Ben-Dror, Pinokio. Also take a peek at a brilliant Lego calendar from Vitamins, consider the business of fashionable fonts, get lost in Jim Campbell’s sculptural LED light installations and double-check your nail polish collection for buried treasure. Stay safe, stay dry, and have a great weekend! […]
A little while back, I had the pleasure of stopping by Moo’s Boston offices with Elizabeth for a Design Museum Boston panel. It was a delight. One of our favorite features, though, was the use of letters as decor, and in the shape of the Moo teardrop logo.
