It’s been awhile since I’ve made a Magic Windows post! I sometimes forget that I always have a camera on my phone, and even the pictures aren’t ideal, they usually come out good enough to share. Trying to capture the beauty I come across. To remember, to revel in it. The other night at a [...]
I don’t know about you, but sometimes in the midst of these strange and shifting times I have to shift my focus away from the horrors and tragedies of this world and cheer myself up with a little frivolity and frippery. I’ve been far too busy for the longest time to ever document any ensembles, [...]

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 [...]
One of the many things I appreciate about Texas weather is the constant mercurial shifting between extremes. Honestly! I am, in so many ways, a creature of habit. I can easily get bogged down in work and routines, so perhaps that has something to do with my insatiable craving for variety. I require a steady [...]

This past weekend, we made a quick jaunt to San Antonio to see Elegant Enigmas: The Art of Edward Gorey at the McNay Museum. It was truly everything I could have wished for and more- completely worth the trip. I was practically weeping over his grocery lists (TV Guide, cat food, cat litter) and hand-stitched [...]

So, our house caught on fire last night! We were so incredible lucky that we caught it before it spread into the ceiling- I am really feeling so grateful right now to whatever is protecting us. We smelled smoke, and discovered that a fire was building in the wall behind our dryer. The dryer vent [...]
