Keep Calm and Carry On

“It could happen anytime between the next 2-4 weeks” That’s what my Russian OB/GYN said to me yesterday. I go to a great group of 5 OBs and since I go as often as I do (went from bi-weekly to weekly now), I get to see all of them. But, I digress… when Dr. Russia…

Life is Just a Bowl of Cherries

So, with the show now behind me. It’s time to think next steps for me… There are a few great children’s stores in town that I am considering going to and seeing if they would be interested in picking up some of my paintings as merchandise.One of the stores is called Kreativa for Kids ….

Fabrics…

Yesterday I went fabric shopping with my mom. We were looking for the right accent fabric to go with what we reupholstered two chairs in our living room with. We found this yellow one to accent the brown elephant, gator, monkey fabric. cWe also found a great koi fabric for the seat cushions in our…

Parties with a Cause

When I am not at work, or painting…or these days growing a baby… I’m volunteering. There are a few organizations I give my time to, and one of the is the Junior Orange Bowl Committee (JOBC). The JOBC is the largest Youth Festival in the world, hosting internationally acclaimed golf and tennis tournaments, a 62…

Pictures Picked

We fought 5pm traffic to make it down to Pinecrest to our photographer’s studio and pick our maternity pictures that will go in our baby book for C. First I have to say again how amazing Sheri is. She’s so talented, fun and easy to work with. We selected a fair number but really keep…

Letter of the Day: H is for Hurricane

Appropriately so! We have Tropical Storm Nicole heading our way. One day there isn’t much happening in the Atlantic or Caribbean and the next, there’s a storm barreling straight for you. It’s also appropriate because turns out I am taking down my paintings at Books and Books today and the day I put them up…

Last Week at Books and Books

It’s the last week of my exhibition at Books and Books in Coral Gables. The month really went by so quickly I can’t believe it. I’m not sure when I will be taking the paintings down, it will more than likely be Wednesday or Thursday afternoon…so if you are in Miami and have not had…

Go Ponies Beat TCU!

When I was a freshman at SMU we wore black pants and oxford shirts with pearls to football games…Playboy ranked us #3 among party schools in the country…about 60% of all students were in the Greek system…and we played pathetic (but super fun) football at the Cotton Bowl. Today, the students look like they’ve walked…

Day Job

So as most of you know I have a day job…but its more than a day job, I really and truly love what I do. I’ve been working in museums for about 12 years now, and I have been fortunate enough to have worked in Museums of Art, Science, Children’s and most recently History ….

Moon Pie

Happy Tuesday. Before I forget I wanted to tell you all about a FAB give away over on my friend’s blog, Summer in Newport. She’s giving away one of her beautiful handmade necklaces, this one is a very fall appropriate chocolate pearl with gold wire necklace. Anyhow– this is Moon Pie. My sorority sisters in…
