Some of you may already know that I'm in the process of re-designing my portfolio site... what you may not know is that this little blog here is getting a hefty makeover too!! (yay!)
So, in lieu of said makeover, I'm putting this baby on hold for a few. Don't hate me - you'll (hopefully) be pleasantly surprised when we're done.
In the meantime, check out some of the archives - there's a lot of beautiful things buried in those older posts! Also, check the right side of this page for a long list of blogs I adore, and that you probably will too :)
Until then, all my love, I'll be missing you!

Last Friday, one of my fav bloggers, Erin, of Elements of Style, came by for a visit with her adorable pup, Oliver. Check out her lovely recap post here. To be honest, I am blushing ear to ear being featured on her blog today, it's like when your favorite band gives you a shout-out mid-set :)
Also, we are throwing a big studio opening party on November 12th!!! There will be drinks and snacks, music and dancing... RSVP here.
And lastly, are you our fan on facebook yet? If not, what are you waiting for??
Become a fan of Daucus Carota here and become a fan of Jessica Sutton Graphic Design here.
Done and Done.
Lots of love on this Monday morning!

So the other night, after having my typical panic attack over project deadlines, the stresses of running my own business, my not going to yoga in forever slash feeling out of shape, and constant worry over my inability to stop shopping and save money, I confessed to Dave that I was also feeling a serious lack of love on my blog. "I just don't get it, no one comments anymore.. have my readers stopping loving me??!?" (in my winiest, little girl voice). Of course Dave shrugged his shoulders, poured me more wine and did his best job consoling me. But the fear was still there - had you guys left me?
Well, the silly girl I am, had um somehow turned off all my comment notifications a few weeks/months ago... ((insert embarrassed, blushing face here)). Yeah, I just went into my settings and realized that, alas, I had selected this panic-inducing scenario.
So thank you for the love - I finally did the most basic thing and scrolled through my blog and realized there were comments that had gone unnoticed for weeks now!! Sigh, I am crazy.
I love you.
And thank you for loving me.

So we finally did it! We finally made it to the #1 spot on Facebook's Networked Blogs: Top 10 blogs of Boston!!!
Crazy to think it was just seven months ago that we were in the #7 spot!
Thanks to everyone who became a fan (if you haven't yet, click here) and thanks for reading this little outlet of mine as much as you do :)

Liana over at New Brahmin tagged me in her post "Show me your Blogspot" so here goes...
So where do I do my blogging? You're looking at it - the couch (our new, comfy couch to be exact).
I blog mostly at night and then pre-post for the following day. Every once in a while you'll get a "live post" from my studio (will be posting new studio pics soon!) when I just have to post something immediately but yeah, it's mainly at night - honestly, if not, I'd never get anything done during the day!
Hmmm... details... well, usually I'm curled up, winding down (preferably with a glass of wine), watching something on dvr and either procrastinating on cooking dinner or listening to Dave cook... man this sounds boring! Actually I'm kidding about all that - the truth is, I sneak blogs in while traipsing back and forth from London, Morocco and Madrid on my private jet... totally.

Ok, now it's someone else's turn. I'm putting the following chicas (and one chico) on the spot:
1. Audra
2. Lisa
3. Jen
4. Dave
5. Maegan
RULES:
1. Once you are tagged, post a picture of where you blog.
2. Feel free to tell us a little about your space, or explain certain items in more detail. Or not.
3. Link back to this post. (I want to see how far this goes!)
4. Tag five other bloggers to show their blog spots.
5. If you are tagged and do not participate, you will become allergic to cabbage.
Hope you all take the time to enjoy the silence of a full tummy and the noise of a loud table today.
Thank you for being such amazing loyal readers!
xoxo

Lost In Queen Anne's Lace by Alison Garnette. Thanks, Kati, for sending this my way today :)
Thanks to my lovely friend, Erica, for sending me her pictures of daucus carota (queen anne's lace) from her vacation this summer... oooh I already miss the beach!
PS - If you ever happen to snap a great pic of these flowers, send them along - I'm designing a tattoo of them so I'm always on the lookout for inspiration AND I'll also showcase them on here of course :)

this field exists somewhere... and I'd love to be watching the clouds from it right now.
