i spied these gorgeous quilt squares from shanelily rain's shop
featured in the storque, etsy's blog, and just had to have them.
i still have to figure out what i'm going to do with them...

i was featured in a gorgeous etsy treasury today, featuring my
most favorite color combination: blue and orange!
you can see it for real and click on the items here.
thanks to muppetloon for putting it together and including me.





this was my birthday present from stephen.
i think it's the best birthday present he's ever given me.


isn't it beautiful? it's a home for barbara.


sarah and i bought barbara from a homeless man in the
2nd ave subway stop, on her birthday, 10 years ago.
her original bag—purple vinyl—was lost in a basement flood.
this new one is even better.

i have a new job: assistant coach of the t-ball yankees of the inner city little league.
thirteen 5-year-olds in high socks and jock straps. at least half of them have no idea where second base is. hands down the best part of my week.
