It's all very exciting when you do finally get in, and there's a sense of accomplishment that goes nicely with the cured olives on top of your pizza...but you know what I enjoy even more?
Eating when I'm hungry. Like, right away.

Q. Hi Jordan, I was just asked to be a godmother, and was wondering if you had any cute ideas for the baptism?
Headboard Wall Decals
These wall decals ($40-$55) are an inexpensive fix for those of us who love headboards (me), but hate their price (also me). I already have a decal above our bed, or else I'd be picking up the Nessa (pictured at left) in mint green or mustard right this very minute.
Thanks to Laura for the link!

This jacket is one of the handful of items that I would save from the house in a fire (other shortlisted items include anything breathing, my computer, and my jewelry box).
Francesca’s Ginger & Apple Cold Cure
I've spent the past 24 hours flat on my back with a horrible cold, and finally I caved and tried ginger tea, which Francesca swears keeps her singer's throat in fantastic shape. She just steeps a big piece of ginger cut into one inch cubes and an apple cut into slices in a big pot of boiling water for half an hour, strains, and serves.
But I'm fresh out of apples and not much in the mood to run to the store, so I just grated up a piece of ginger, put it in a thermos with some honey and lemon, let it sit for 20 minutes, and drank it as-is (shaking between sips to disperse the "pulp"). I don't know that I'm ready to run a marathon, but everything does feel a touch clearer. So.
