Since we're on the topic of food, here's another drawing of Eddie's that sums up our love of all things breakfast.

Pillowtop Pompadour & Hair Hats

I recently took a vintage hair styling class at Revamp in downtown LA where I attempted a 1950's evening updo myself. After setting my hair in pin curls, brushing it out (sorry, next time I will bring my camera for some before photos since I looked like a crazy lioness) rolling and pinning (my arms were so noodly afterwards!) -
hours later, I created what Eddie called a 'pillowtop pompadour' which looked comfy enough to rest on
a portrait of Madame de Pompadour (a mistress of King Louis XV who was later made a marquise) which the pompadour hairstyle was named after

circa 1750

Thanks to Eddie, I will now experiment with 1940's hairstyles using this hard to find instruction book he bought me

and now...
hair hats by Nagi Noda

Ai Yamaguchi Exhibit & Royal/T

Last month, Eddie & I caught the Ai Yamaguchi exhibit at the Roberts & Tilton gallery in Culver City








We then headed over to Royal/T for a spot of tea



The maids were really tall!

I'll be heading back over with Mindy tonight for the below masquerade ball, more pictures to follow!

There's No Other Like Your Mother

Your absence has gone through me like thread through a needle. Everything I do is stitched with its color.
-W.S. Merwin




just a few handmade items my mom made for me. the doll to the left she made just before I was born, I wore the clothes home from the hospital. she's holding a beaded doll. my love of humpty dumpy began with this one to the right.

Thanks Bree!

For the awesome book! The photos warm my heart.

Bonjour from Montreal!

What better excuse to visit Montreal than to see the 'Once Upon a Time Walt Disney' exhibit! So here we are in all our splendor, me in my Minnie tee and Eddie in his Mickey tee - total dorks.

they wouldn't allow any type of photography (boohoo) so this is my only photo inside the museum~

this is where all the women dress like super-hereos!

I think these are supposed to scare you into being good~

Cupcakes at The Chalet

The celebration continued after we returned from Yosemite at The Chalet, where Mindy brought my very own personalized cupcakes, thanks Min!

Yosemite Photos

So Eddie whisked me away for a mountainous adventure to Yosemite. We stayed at the Victorian Wawona hotel established in 1879 - no phones or tvs just trees and the surrounding woodland creatures to keep us company - yay!

A bunch of adorable older couples showed up at the hotel sporting thier Model A's (I think that was the model)~

Our room was in the Washburn Cottage~

Relaxing in the morning on the veranda~

Eddie surpised me with a vintage Bradley doll~

Baron's bad haircut

So my dog Baron got a really bad haircut. Luckily his hair is finally growing back because he looked something like this...

Cavalier's are supposed to look like this...

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen & Moustaches

I was thinking of "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" (which I'm adding to my Netflix list since it's been a while since I've watched it and am now on the hunt for the book illustrated by the uber-talented Ronald Searle, published in 1969) which then led me to think of crazy moustaches!
So here's a few in case you're thinking of growing your own!

And finally, Eddie presents, Beardy McGoo!
