Happy May Parade CrushDay


Peering outside my 2nd story bedroom window this early morning, I am in awe of the sound of Quiet & the brisk spring air dancing with tiny white lights bordering the window frame. The scent of spring is here!! Ooooooo how I wish to hang every bit of laundry & bed linens I own onto the backgarden clothesline! Let it soak up the divinity of spring & all the newness it shares...



Spending most of my days in the studio or the back sundeck writing lyrics into puppy teeth tattered journals. Jackson Pup has now become just another member of the band & the amount of joy & laughter he has brought into our world is epic. Can't quite remember life before him (ok so I realize it was only a month ago) ;) Parachute Guys are in full "camp equipment " buying mode & our entire casa has become a tent & fishing lure building haven. I'm definitely excited about the upcoming, hike to your camp destination adventures, but my true springtime crushathon?? Well, it's still on the softer side... ;)

Loving the latest Hepburn Memorabilia now being auctioned off at Christie's. Japanese LifeSize Movie posters from Breakfast at Tiffany's



And fabulous Wardrobe sketches of The Hep from Sabrina




Handwritten letters from Audrey to her fam & friends...



And an array of limited edition fashion mags from around the Globe.

Arlo Guthrie is groovy, but not just regular groovy.... more like "I'm playing Madison Square Garden this month, but I'm still down to earth Swell enough to take time out of my day to visit with you about old times" sort of groovy. And I adore him. Stellar Guthrie.
