Hello to December, one of my favorite months of the year. I love the holidays: the chill in the air, the smell of pine needles, baking, twinkly lights, Charlie Brown Christmas on repeat, old traditions and new ones. It's a month of celebrations, of birthdays and family gatherings, made all the more memorable and magical with an almost three-year-old. So cheers to all that...
A few links:
Yayoi Kusama's Mirrored Room looks beautiful.
I (finally) started Donna Tartt's
The Goldfinch over the weekend. The book has been sitting on my bedside table since the day it was released, but I hadn't felt ready to crack the spine until this past Saturday. I'm only 50 pages in, but I'm loving the language and the imagery so far. Take a look at the
interview with Tartt over at Powells.com.
This place has become one of our favorite date night spots.
It is silly how long I've been looking for a cute pair of booties. I've been so tempted by
clog booties, but when I admired them on
Marisa Haskell a few weeks ago she told me all about how hers are stiff and unforgiving. I just don't have the time or the patience to break in a new pair of booties. And, frankly, spending beaucoup $ on a pair of shoes that are so uncomfortable I might never wear them is just not an option.
These are the ones I've chosen (in Navy suede). Fingers crossed.
