(aka, I-am-going-to-blog-if-it-kills-me!)
Getting settled in a new place is harder than I remember. Maybe it’s because before my parents home, I never really “settled” into a place like my last one. That, and I haven’t moved to too many places. But, it’s kicking my butt. Don’t get me wrong – I love it, with the new meeting space (pictured above), and office space, but I still feel so disoriented here. I’m trying to find my rhythm. It just takes a bit of time.
I will be posting more pictures of the space soon :)
In the meantime, I’ve been horribly neglecting my blog, especially after I cared for it so well last year. I haven’t even changed my WELCOME header! I mean, really, Susan! And it’s already May. *sigh.
I toyed with the idea of blogging everyday for a month, and I almost decided that I would do it for the month of May. What say you, readers? I almost feel like blogging everyday gave me that familiar routine last year, and really helped. Who knows, I may just pick up and do it for the rest of the year. I’ve been taking a polaroid everyday this year, but it’s not the same cause I don’t blog it immediately. Should it do it – for a month at least?
Aside from my blogging/settling woes, things have been busy, and I have exciting blogs for you!! GORGEOUS weddings coming, and many other things. I love sharing with you all, and I hope to have at least ONE wedding up this week. Mark my words. Seriously!!
Well, I hope you all are having a beautiful week, and I leave you with a few things I’ve been loving. :)
01 . anthropologie’s newest display.
I always love what Anthropologie comes up with (who doesn’t?!) but I’m especially loving the hive design and the reason they’re doing it. I love looking at the way they display things too. So inspiring. :)
02 . a homemade life.
I first stumbled upon Molly’s blog fall of last year, I was originally drawn to her site because not only does she post lovely recipes, she photographs them with POLAROIDS! :D She also published a book recently, and I decided to give it a try. I loved her stories and writing style so much (and recipes that follow it) that I couldn’t read it fast enough. There’s something about books mixed with recipes – something I’ve talked about before. This one was especially lovely to read because each recipe she put in has a very specific story to it, and it really honestly makes you want to try out the recipe that much more. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves to read as well as cook :) I made her ratatouille dish the other night, too, which was a hit :)
03 . map bicycles.
Holy goodness are these bikes gorgeous. Their bags are even more gorgeous. :)
04 . hammocks & reading.
’nuff said. :)

yesh! :) blog everyday sus!
I want to see a close up of that bookcase. I tried to find you on flickr but I dunno I thought you were a contact but I can’t find u. I’m not going to tell you to blog everyday (although I would read them) because I know how hard that is.
Love it Susan. It looks very beautiful and comfy! I spy a familiar TTD shoot in the background! :) And now that my morning routine consists of blog reading while sipping a cappuccino, you definitely should do a blog a day. I miss them!
that is soo funny! when we were at UTC yesterday, we were commenting also on anthropologie’s decorations. we totally loved it too, looove the beehive honeycomb goin on!! ;-)
congrats on the new house again. yay! the space looks wonderful!
I love the contemporary look of your place! I think you should do a blog a day – give us 9-5ers something to look forward to :)
what an amazing space! i’m so curious about all your colour co-ordinated books — please share!
Susan! Your new space is awesome! I can’t wait to see it next Thursday! :) Oh, and if you have it in you to blog every day for a month…then I will check it every day for a month! Hows that! ha ha! :) You have more energy than me girl!
beautiful! i love the shelf of rainbow books and old cameras!
and yes agree with jennie, blog more!
love the new diggs. =) Can’t wait to come over. also i think i saw one of your couples at the mall the other day. =)
Woww. That is an awesome meeting room. I like how the books on the bookshelf are staggered by height and organized by color :)
Wow Susan! Your place looks amazing! There’s so much that catches the eye. I especially love the bookcase displaying the polariod cameras and color coordinated books. It may be selfish, but I miss your daily blogs. Your photos are something I look forward to every morning while reading emails at work.
Seriously, Susan you need to blog more. I am a blog-addict without a blog to read. Oh yes and more of that wedding stuff that you do, too. ;) I miss going to your blog every morning and seeing new photographs of people in love and possibly getting some new recipes or inspirational quotes. Come back to the blogosphere.
Your place looks straight out of a magazine. I love it! Even after having lived in our house for more than two years, we’re still living with the amount of furniture that fit in a 2-bedroom apartment. So you can imagine our place is pretty sparse. We’re getting ready to paint soon tho!
you move me. i look at your images, your art, and i walk away changed. i close my eyes, and see into my core, and something has changed for the better. your photographic art is unlike anyone’s i’ve ever seen. i’m so glad i found my way too you. and…you’re northern californian at heart. that’s kick ass, too. ;)
ummm…yeeeeaaaa. i clicked on the link from number 2 and 45 mins later, i was still fully emersed in orangette.
