For the sake of being a smartass, I’m sharing my Labor Day inspiration board with you, dear readers. It took all of five minutes and includes everything I plan to eat, watch and do during this glorious three day weekend.
I hope yours is just as exciting. Happy Labor Day!
Wedding season is about to kick into high gear here in the Valley of the Sun. Each year I get a handful of brides who ask me one question that never fails to make me shudder. It goes something like this:
“I need to order invitations, reply cards, reception cards, envelopes and registry cards.”
Yes, registry cards.
To...
I recently had the pleasure of working with Ms Jennifer Thye, wedding planner extraordinaire and owner of Imoni Events.
I have always been a fan of her feminine but not too “girly” branding, so I was flattered that she asked me to help her with some letterhead.
To defray the cost of custom printed envelopes, we opted...
This month, I have decided to donate to Kitz for Kidz, which provides clothing, hygiene products and school supplies to children in need.
One of my favorite things to do as a kid was to draw and color with my jumbo box of crayolas. It’s sad to think that this simple joy is often withheld from...
I have partnered with the lovely Liene Stevens of Blue Orchid Designs on a giveaway! Go to her blog for the rules (you’ll love this, Office fans!)

On to fun things. We...
In addition to “the Bean” and the Frank Gehry bridge, we ran into this while in Millennium Park.
It was fun to watch the kids line up and patiently wait for this giant person to spit on them.
In addition to needing a giant spitting TV, I believe Phoenix could also use a Frontera Grill. Despite the...
While I was in Chicago, I mentioned to my sister-in-law that I really wanted to check out Willow. As it happens, Willow is within WALKING DISTANCE of her abode. How freaking cool is that?
So we stopped by Starbucks (also within walking distance) and headed to the loveliness that is Willow. I was afraid I had built...
I’m back in the office attempting to get caught up. Vacation was great, I’ll post on that when I’m done grumbling about how freaking hot it is in Arizona.
In the meantime, here’s a pretty flower from my parents garden.
The thing that’s cool about Chicago is that you can sit out on a boat and look at buildings and you don’t spontaneously combust.
