Sleepy



Three Christmas Trees

Every Year my Husband and I have three Christmas Dinners,
This year I decided to take pictures of all the tress we saw
(ok so this year we really did four houses,
but I left the camera in the car for the last one and it was
pouring rain, and freezing, so I couldn't convince myself to go get it)


My Parent's Tree


My Husband's Mother's Tree




My Husband's Aunt's Tree

White Morning


Its the day after all the snow- we woke up and
saw this out the window!


Our cat Pig thought Teflon was silly to be out in the snow



So Teflon thought he would come back inside and
enjoy the sun with Pig

Feeling that Christmas Feeling!


Sarah came over and we did super sneaky Christmas crafts,
and cooked a yummy yummy meal, which included
Alton Brown's mac-n-cheese is the best you will ever eat, so give it a try!


Then Sarah, Pinky (my husband) and I headed to the
the Christmas lights with Teflon




Can you spot Teflon?


I had to include this picture because I love the purple lights,
they are almost the color of my hair right now, even though
it is a bit out of focus.

due to the craziness that was these last couple of weeks,
I have not been able to find the time to blog-
so here is snip-it of some of it :


December 5th

we were lucky enough to get snow before January!
I love snow and we never get enough-
however it is completely gone now


This is a picture looking out the window at my work.
(Mallory and I made the super cool snowflakes on the window)

to change things up a bit, and this lovely lady had
never dyed her hair before, but has wanted to for years!

She loved the results!

walking



I was driving, and I stopped at a historic cemetery
in Rockville (Maryland)


The mausoleums, are really pretty

The doors were really neat, but kinda creepy




There were crows everywhere, it was beautiful

little things


I take the metro to school, and I noticed this today- its a plant growing in the cement, next to the third rail, on the metro tracks. I think it's beautiful,amazing, and inspiring where plants can grow

A Place to live



The other day I went to Glen Echo with My husband and one of our friends. At Glen Echo they have these buildings that look like little hobbit homes, or large cupcakes, and I fell in love with them- when I grow up I want to live in one, I think... That's what the top picture is of, that one is a pottery studio. During the rest of the year they grow grass on the roof!


This made me think about an architect I heard about, named Friedensreich Hundertwasser- I know that's a mouth full. The other two pictures are of his buildings. He built really neat apartment buildings for low income housing, and they were all built out of stock parts, and with the idea of being green-except years before anyone else thought of things like that. Most of the apartments had trees and such growing out of the rooms! He also made each apartment look different so that people living in them would take pride in where they lived...I think he had the right idea.
