A Day in Portland, Maine

August 20, 2015 By Katrina

A Day in Portland, Maine

We spent a day in Portland, Maine, a few weekends back, and I think the more time we spend there, the more we love it. There are so many cute shops (Little and K. Colette are my favorites — so much to see!) and a lot of great restaurants, and I always leave wishing we could stay…

Fit for a Fairy: Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Fit for a Fairy: Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Beany has been increasingly interested in ingredients lately, and her questioning is often relentless. “What is that?” “Where did that come from?” “What does that taste like?” “How did you make it?” This has its plusses and minuses, of course. Curiosity finally convinced her to taste salad dressing, which made her taste spinach salad, which…

What Kids Can Teach You

What Kids Can Teach You

At the first hint of sunshine and warm weather last weekend, we took off on our first spring adventure of the year. Snacks packed. Kids in the car. Not much of a plan besides Beany’s request for a beach. Lucky for her, New England has plenty of coast to go around.I tend to fall into such a trap of…

Colorful Indoor Garden Craft for Kids

April 9, 2015 By Katrina

Colorful Indoor Garden Craft for Kids

Around Christmastime we made an IKEA run and, per our usual, came home with a unique smattering of items: festive chair cushions, drawers for under Beany’s bed, a few packs of batteries and a gigantic roll of paper designed for an easel we still don’t own. The cushions were fun through the holidays, the drawers are great toy storage…

Before I Blink

March 30, 2015 By Katrina

Before I Blink

I’ve been missing my 52 Project from last year a bit lately, so I decided last week to keep my camera out on the kitchen counter so I’d remember to snap a few more photos. It’s easy to take the camera along on our weekend adventures, but it’s the day-to-day stuff that really seems to capture these…

Happy birthday, Bear!

March 8, 2015 By Katrina

Happy birthday, Bear!

Our sweet, snuggly boy turned 1 this weekend. How is that even possible? Bear has brought more love and happiness to our family than any of us could have imagined. I’ve said it so many times before, but I’ve never met a sweeter baby. He’s truly the most laid-back, easygoing kid and has been from day…

You guys, it snowed. Lots.

January 27, 2015 By Katrina

You guys, it snowed. Lots.

You guys, it snowed. Like 2-feet-and-counting snowed. This morning, when Beany ran into our room at 6:15, pulled back the blinds and looked at our snow-covered deck, the first words out of her mouth were: “Wow! Look at this! It snowed so much! It’s so high!” Then she thought for a second about what this…

NYC and the Window Washer

NYC and the Window Washer

So many recipes to post. So many photos to edit. This is the year I will catch up! In the meantime, there’s this photo. I’ve been calling it The Window Washer. One week in a hotel in Princeton, New Jersey, and Beany never ran out of things to do. Kids are great that way. And then…

Photo 52/52: Hello, 2015

Well, 2015 is here, guys, which is wonderful. But that also means 2014 is over, and I’ve been having a bit of a hard time letting it go. It was a good, good year, filled with lots of the best kinds of changes. And now here we are, with the very last pictures of this 52-week…
