this weekend wasn’t nearly as productive as those in weekends past, but i wouldn’t have wanted to do anything else. it began on friday night with the cure thrift shop 2nd birthday party. so many lovely people (including, but not limited to: bianca, kristen, sarah, stephanie, eric, ronen, lee and bez) showed up and i tried my hardest to scurry around and socialize with everyone.

this weekend was so full of long island goodness (is that an oxymoron?) that i am plumb tuckered out. a few weeks ago, i had invited my new friend sarah for a visit and, despite the heat, the weather was beautiful.
she came on saturday morning and, with my sister and mother zucker in tow, we set out to deepwell’s farm for yet another craft fair. the event was well-organized and...

bashful asked: HELP. I have a wedding to go to this weekend, and no money to purchase a dress with. I'm thinking of repurposing my prom dress, but have no idea how to accessorize it for a summer wedding. Was thinking of buying some all-purpose shoes, but don't know what direction to go. Your help would be amazing!
