Sketchy Bunnies, y’all. I’m sorry I have to expose you to these horrors, and I hope seeing them won’t scare you away from our Easter Egg Hunt, but they’re just too good (wrong?) not to share. Many thanks to the minds behind this site, and condolences to the people who are submitting their childhood photos [...]
The past few days have been rather damp and dreary, making me ravenous for rich, saturated color – electric, fluorescent hues that make my brain tingle. I’m getting pretty bored with the staple neutral palette that seems to be the fashion uniform these days, though don’t get me wrong – I love me some black, [...]

Hello, hello! Many apologies for the long absence and all the tumbleweeds drifting around these parts! I am returned from my travels, which proved far too fun and chaotically action-packed to do any of the updates I had anticipated. In fact, I barely had time to flick a finger towards my laptop – which was [...]

Ahoy! New photos have surfaced from our New Year’s Eve adventures in the Texas Hill Country, from Mr. Chip Warren, esteemed gentleman and fantastic photographer. Following are a handful of my favorites, but the full set can be seen here: Hill Country New Years 2009 I love the shots he captured of our exploits with [...]

So – after much deliberation and brow-furrowing, I’ve finally decided what the hell to do with myself and anyone who’d care to join me on my holy whelping day, this coming Sunday – January 10th. I’m having a Trans-Siberian Savages Potluck, with bonfires, cozy tipi lounging, hot Glögg, and hopefully some Mongolian burlesque! If you [...]
Our New Year’s Eve was truly magical. Despite a rocky start fraught with Mercury’s meddlings, we managed to create a really solid camp and the coziest tipi yet! In a pinch, duct tape, scavenged rope and a random dental tool can be used to quite ingenious effect – the skin was sewn by Francesca out [...]

Here we go, darlings – on the precipice of a new year, and just nearly ready to dry our sticky wings on the other side of the future! 2010, for real? I mean, doesn’t it seem slightly preposterous, as if we ought to be living in some science fiction reality? Where’s my flying car? I [...]

I get more and more shameless every year in my open adoration of this holiday. Yes, the commercialization and wasteful glut disgust me – but it means so much more to me than that. Even in Texas, (where we can often be found in short-sleeves around this time of year) I can completely grasp the [...]

Happy Winter Solstice, beloveds! It’s not especially chilly here yet, though it has gotten a little frost-spangled some nights, the tease of recent snowfall amounted to only a meagre flurry. That being said, I’m grateful to know that the days will be longer from here on out. The thin silver scythe in the sky and [...]

(Photo by Red-Star) Turkeys are such strange birds. Ugly-beautiful, and regal-ridiculous. Have you ever seen one flying wild? It’s like a giant feathered cannonball shot through the woods. Hilarious and shocking. We saw wild turkeys in Osyka Springs, Mississippi when we used to go camping there. They are huge! I feel bad about it, but [...]
