We are having house guests in a few weeks and I see us all drinking coffee while hot loaves of these breads come out of the oven.

To add to that cozy hosting fantasy, I should probably make this Masala Chai.

This tote made me laugh and reminds me of my friend Megan.

I DVR’ed Hocus Pocus last night- there are so many reasons why it’s the best Halloween movie ever.

Counting Crows’ August and Everything After is 20 years old and still one of my favorite albums of all time.

I have my eye on these wedges that would be a nice alternative to boots or heels this Fall.

Happy 1st Day of October!

Quotable

We Need Pockets

“We need enormous pockets, pockets big enough for our family and our friends and even the people who aren’t on our lists, people who we’ve never met but still want to protect. We need pockets for boroughs and for cities, a pocket that could hold the whole universe.” Jonathan Safran Foer, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close

Take care of each other today. Every day, actually.

Quotable, Memorable

Scene outside of the Apple store on Michigan Avenue.  So many touching words, some of them Steve Jobs’ own:

“Again, you can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something – your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.”

Quite the impact this man had on the world…
