looking very forward to seeing drew & his band at one of my very favorite venues.

…

very colorful poster & declaration by watchwork.

spotted the above at the shop of the ever trusty present & correct.  that type!  that red!  that letter V!  i had to have these, of course.  & so the impulsive purchase took place.

…

now i await.

more official-ness:
1. a brand new stamp, &
2. a kind intern named jaclyn.  

what gorgeousness (definitely one to be judged by its cover). details (& a grace-ful trailer) here. 

…

looking forward to september & finding this chair among its pages!

i already have too many totes to tally, but this one has it in the (tote) bag. can you imagine?:

me: will you please bring my tote?
you: which one?
me: le tote. 
you: a-ha! 

pale blue typewriter bliss!

& was anyone else an avid reader of the little house on the prairie series?  i always loved when ma would say “a place for everything, and everything in its place.”

the other evening i enjoyed every bit of wondering about at brand bookshop, a used bookstore in glendale (just a skip away from the guava cheese at porto’s bakery). there inside works a wonderfully sharp old fellow whose cracks kept me chuckling throughout my visit. loved the section titled ‘books on books’, but what i really got lost in were the books on plants & flowers. there was an old old field guide (older than this one) that also addressed the flowers by colors, but it followed with a special chapter on the ‘unpleasantly scented flowers’. was happy to come away with the title ‘exotic plants’ & a guidebook on leaves; wasn’t too happy about being tricked (by my own hand, no one else’s) into opening a book on termites (the cover was misleadingly stately).

excited to share more photos with you soon.

salted caramel cutie pie.

what fun work (as always) by the folks at also!

i can’t resist the berry red + minty blue.
