On The Cutting Edge of Yesterday

TeaBeans: Snowy Day Sweater Dress

My friend Katie makes beautiful things and I wish she sold them on Etsy or somewhere, because I would buy one of everything.

Tara, we found your future Brooklyn apartment.

Even the boxes are gleaming.

My new Ginghers arrived today! (spring-action dress shears, snips, and leather scissors.)

Where did you get that amazing swimsuit?

Marco and Tiff go to Brooklyn, Part 2 (see Part 1)

With a more in-depth tour of Park Slope, we saw our first apartments and narrowed down the parts of the neighborhood that we prefer. We also learned some useful information from realtors.Most 2-bedroom units are priced with the assumption that they’ll be split between roommates, and they don’t tend to be significantly larger than 1-bedrooms. This is in line with what we’ve seen, even in Westchester over the last few years — we’ve never seen a 2-bedroom that seemed spacious. There are too many walls and doors and hallways. Even the 1100-sq.ft. 2-bedrooms we’ve seen have been cramped and poorly laid out.

We only wanted the second room for an office/guest bedroom, but many 1-bedroom units have enough space or extra alcoves to accommodate that. So we’re broadening our search to large 1-bedrooms, and the listings already look significantly better. Hopefully it turns out that way in real life, too.

The camera gets better, but the purse stays the same.

And I switched purses three times this morning before choosing this one.
