stella asleep
Stella fell asleep with her foot propped up on the way home from dinner at a friend's house around the corner. Those little toes are so cute. I had to post.

paris on my mind
This Brian Ferry photo gives me a case of the Paris wants.
Speaking of Paris...
J and I went on a date (our second night out without Stella since she was born in December) Saturday night to Boot & Shoe Service. And then we saw the amusing new Woody Allen flick, Midnight in Paris. All the shots of Paris were dreamy.
Today my parents and I took Stella to SFMoma to see the Stein's Collection show and then to the Jewish Museum for Seeing Gertrude Stein. Stella enjoyed Matisse's splashes of color, but was mainly a wiggly cranky pants so I didn't get to see much of either exhibit...

north carolina
J's friends Pam and Will got hitched in Hot Springs, North Carolina last weekend.
We celebrated with a few folks that J went to college with.
Here's Stella with her friend Elsa. As you can see, Elsa isn't so sure about Stella.
We spent a short period of time at a swimming hole before a thunderous storm sent us on our way.
After the wedding festivities we spent 24 hours in Asheville.
I loved these "Love Asheville" signs that were in all the Asheville storefronts:
"Local is the new black"
This one was posted in the window of Malaprops, the fantastic indie bookstore in Asheville. We do our best to support independent bookstores wherever we go, so at Malaprops we bought:

braided
We are headed to North Carolina this weekend for a wedding. I think this braid, with a loose bun at the bottom, would be perfect wedding hair for the warm weather, don't you think?

olafur eliasson's your rainbow panorama
I love the way that Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson creates and transforms space. He won me over a few years ago when he stimulated bright, brash sunlight in the middle of Tate Modern's Turbine Hall as a part of The Weather Project.
Now Eliasson has fashioned a rainbow over Denmark...that you can walk in and through. It looks absolutely gorgeous.
