cyanotypes



Lately I've baking in the Ojai sun with matilija poppies and blue green chemistry. Think I'm falling in love again.


Hope this weekend finds you doing something that makes your heart swell and burst.

let the sun shine



Tuesday there was sunshine. That day felt like summer, with the kind of heat that makes your scalp sweat and builds on the soles of your feet the way good salsa builds on your lips, slowly, until you're dizzy.

Wednesday was even better, with delirious ping pong playing and dangerous sangria, thick sweet sarcasm and the marine layer a million miles away.

Today is just gray. Just sad and gray.

restful weekend



I am hoping to catch up on some much needed r&r this weekend. I want to sleep late, drink coffee in bed and generally be lazy. I'm not sure it's in the cards for me, but a girl can dream right?

What kind of weekend are you hoping to have? Any wild or wonderful plans?

gone fishing

I doubt if I'll be shopping for bait and tackle this Saturday. But I will definitely stay outside so long as the sunshine weather stays. Maybe Mr. C and I will go for a downtown stroll or a picnic in the park. Or maybe I'll plant a garden and bake pies. And then again, I might do none of those things and escape to the beach instead. The possibilities seem endless.

Happy Friday friends. Hope this weekend finds you doing something you love.

fine fancy Friday

Oooh, I just love Friday! Think I'll change out of my flip flops and into some heels and take my man out on the town.

Hope this weekend gives you a reason to get all dolled up.

kick off your shoes

summer solstice 2010
I love Ventura this time of year, when the days are so long there's no need to rush. And bare feet are more than acceptable, they're expected.

Happy Friday friends. Hope you get to take off your shoes and bask in the sun this weekend.

planning for picnics

Picnic
If this 80˚ sunshine weather holds, I think I'll plan a Sunday picnic. What about you? Any plans for the weekend?

just when I'd almost given up on you, Facebook

Just when I was really questioning the value of social networks, an old friend found me. Here's to you Mr. Parker. You have saved my Facebook account from almost certain destruction and you have renewed my faith in the system.

I'd rather just go dancing


Fridays are for lovers, dance halls and vintage movies that shaped your childhood. I can so vividly remember listening to the Dirty Dancing soundtrack with my cousins and making up our own routines. Thank you Johnny and Baby for teaching us the moves.

Friday I'm in Love


Happy Friday everyone. Hope your weekend is all sunny day glamour and sultry September nights. And I hope that some one hangs the moon for you.

hot club of Friday

Happy Friday everyone. Here's to a sizzling weekend with a little tune from the Hot Club of France and some wonderful footage of the quartet that includes Django Reinhardt & Stéphane Grappelli.



By the way, the show last night was amazing. Ventura's fine fiddler, Phil Salazar, sat in to everyone's surprise and delight. And Ian and I agreed that if  Swing Cheese's guitar player, Chris, wore a 1930s suit and slicked his hair he bear a resemblance to Django.
