wedding.

while cruising around some of my favorite wedding blogs this morning, i found this gorgeous wedding, which (i can't believe i'm saying this) would make me consider getting married in oklahoma.

some bits of Wednesday loveliness:

all found on green wedding shoes.

all hallow's eve.

well. things are better.

despite a little strep throat. but i'm on antibiotics so all is well.

it is halloween and the city is excited about it. at work yesterday, there was a trick-or-treating parade around the neighborhood and it was completely adorable. about a million little kids in cute little outfits. though, it was then that i vowed to never resort to the close costume as a mother. yeesh. bad news.

it is all very fun, though i have absolutely no plans. which, is probably okay since i am never one to wear a slutty costume, so i usually just end up feeling inadequate and like a complete prude. though, i did see a friend dress up her baby in this costume and i just fell in love.

found on costume craze.

i am not even a star wars fan, but i just can't get over how adorable it is. this is one of those things that tempts to purchase it despite the fact that i'm extremely far away from any sort of baby-ness.

have a safe and happy halloween!

mood.

sorry for the lack of posts. it has just kind of been one of those days. or one of those weeks, i suppose.

this rut will pass. it is too painful if they don't.

in the meantime: watch glee. and the amazing race.

(sorry for being all emo-tastic.)

regretsy.

kind of love this.

just a sampling of the great "finds" on regretsy:

picnic worthy.

the past few days in san fran have been wonderfully warm, despite the oodles of rain we had at the start of the week. before it gets too chilly, it would be a wonderful time to set up for a little mid-day picnic in the city by the bay.

all found on etsy.

1. beautiful woven picnic basket with leather hardware and plaid lining.

2. totally adorable little thermos set.

3. a cozy little blanket for snuggling up on a sunny lawn.

4. these little reusable produce bags are a great way to "go green" at the grocery store, and out and about. they come in a bunch of sizes and colors are are super easy to clean.
