Look Ma, no calories
Happy Birthday Mom! I was searching the web for a pretty cake to make and came across this fantastic blog:
That’s when I found these gorgeous PAPER cakes Jan of Poppy Talk drove by and had to stop to shoot. Thanks Mom for always inspiring me and leading me to beautiful things! You too Jan!
it’s unbelievable
i guess this is my second favorite thing about new york…the wholesale district for flowers and plants. it’s heaven on earth and makes new york a soft and pretty city! flowers are an obsession for me especially here, the variety is amazing and when you see them all together it’s intoxicating…
tomorrow I’m going to treat myself!
the peonies are in bloom
oh the scent!
oh the perfection!
one of my favorite things about new york: you can get peonies in white pink, fuschia and black! They last for days and the room smells so sweet. Plus you can get them at any corner deli. Thank you God!
Minimilism at its finest
This is my apartment, a loft that has many challenges. Like a giant Mr. Slim air conditioner right over one of the 3 huge windows!
what would YOU do with that ac unit??!!
True Confessions
Oh wow it seems like a long time since i’ve been able to get here. I have so much on my plate i am going nuts! And now i have an opportunity to showcase my home in glamour mag…but i’ve been renting it and it’s not ready…the shoot would be in a month or so so i’ll have to kick it into hyper drive if i want to make it happen. this is as it is now, it needs so much! i turned it into a little hotel, now i have to turn it back into to my little palace…eeekk!!
Eight o’clock and all’s well

i was funky all day without my camera…(thanks for your good wishes for me to find it!)
Thanks to my dad i did have a backup. I forgot i’d buried a vivitar that burned out in paree. my dad had it refurbished (Thanks Dad for all you do! You too Mom!). Well, i went to the roof and played with it, now my guy’s home vying for attention…more later!
ok he’s in the shower…well losing my camera has been an eye opening experience, one that has really made me remember to appreciate everything i have…
Things have been a little trying lately but both suprising and perfectly natural was finding another blogjewel from the aqua and pink post.

i can’t wait to dive into…plus she’s looking for a camera! i still have to get a one that’s at least 5 megpix and i’d like 5x or more zoom….do you love your camera or are you lusting for one?
Clothes make the man
and comments make the blog…
i am so thrilled that blogging has brought me more amazing women. How lucky we are to have this wonderful little world of perfection….thank you ladies, all you blogging goddesses who inspire each other all day everyday
