Last day of my trip to Oregon with my kids and our day at the Country Fair. I am so happy I did this trip, it has been effortless (thanks to Lauren) and we got to connect deeply with each other and the cousins. I feel complete, satisfied, and really excited to hurry back home […]

The Oregon Country Fair was more magical than I remembered. The star of the show was the beautiful land it is held on … I fell in love with the trees and the dappled sunlight. I can’t believe I ran into my friend and ceramics teacher Margaret and was able to revisit artisans I met […]
We packed up and left our place in Florence to head back to Eugene, but not before checking out some antique markets and rock shops first. The guys were into finding vintage lighters and decorative knives. The knife thing isn’t as alarming as it may seem. Casey is super into camping gear as well as […]
We had the most wonderful day exploring the coast; we started at a tide pool with ample muscle beds. Tide pools are the most magical thing on the planet for me and I loved probing them with my boys. We continued up the coast to Yachats for a superb lunch and gentle browsing of tchotchke […]

Day 3 of my trip to Oregon with my boys. Casey decided to try sleeping in the hammock last night and it started raining after he fell asleep. He retreated to my bed in the middle of the night and I woke up with him next to me. I got up early and did yoga […]
Day two in Eugene. I am loving the slow and unhurried pace, that feeling of absolute comfort being surrounded by my family. I am brought back to the days at Marcia’s where we concerned ourselves with simple things … what to cook for dinner, what small thing needed mending or improving, reliving our mutual escapades […]
I took my boys a trip to Oregon to see Lauren, daughter of Marcia, mother of my soul. I’ve never been to this house – it has been 20 years since I’ve been to Eugene – but it felt like coming home, it was full of familiar treasures, some we found together over the 28 […]

Just when I was believing that My Sweetheart was immune to Covid, he got it. I’m not sure where he picked it up, he has a friend who came down with it at the same time (she tested because we were in proximity and I alerted her) so maybe it came from her, maybe he […]

My Sweetheart took me to Sayulita in October last year to propose and we had such a great time that we decided to take the boys this spring.
