I discovered this amazing animal sillhoute font thanks to Jordon.  I’d love to make a custom fabric with this, or, flash cards for the babe, or, a baby book of somekind.

We’re still in Vermont, in this house, soaking up green leaves and cool breezes.  I grew up in Vermont and I’ve had fun eating all my favorite foods that are local (pretzels from the Vermont Pretzel Company, Chinese food at Panda North, sesame noodles from the Brattleboro Coop). It’s been nice to get some sun and Alex loves being outdoors here.  Lovely image from here.

It seems Knoll now has a full line of midcentury modern children’s furniture, including seating and tables.  So sweet, so mod.  Check out more from Vastu.

This is a bill of Marilyn Monroe’s for champagne and a nice bottle too!  It sold recently at the auction house Bonhams for $397 (which seems somehow both expensive and cheap).  I’m not crazy about memorabilia, but this is so small, and so glamorous, it would be perfect as part of my fantasy gallery wall.  See much more of Marilyn over at The English Muse, who is always finding wonderful things.

Let’s see: I’m getting into a routine with Alex, who is growing like a weed, which is wonderful. Tim went back to work last week, so I took it slow and spent days watching the second and third season of The Office.  Pam and Jim’s love story had me riveted to the couch.  I’m hoping to be back to blogging more regularly, and reading my favorite blogs more regularly too!

It’s raining a sort of peaceful spring rain in NYC today. The baby is sleeping and I’m trolling amazing website Just France Sales where I found this image of a French deer family enjoying an evening snack.
