song of the day: alt-J.

song of the day: allen stone.

one talented gentleman. and one of the best live shows i've ever been to. allen stone's stage presence is off the charts.

have yourself a merry little christmas.

well, not quite yet. but 'tis the season for christmas lights, christmas trees and christmas music. and cinnamon scented candles. bliss. bliss. bliss.

behind the scenes.

seven pizzas and one nutella calzone later...take that, monday! 

treat yo' self.

because sometimes i like to make myself a four course dinner on a monday night. 

{bruschetta.}

{arugula & apple salad.}

{margherita pizza.}

{nutella calzone. yum.}

sunday song of the day: gregory alan isakov.

too close.

love these bbc radio 1 live lounge performances.

sun. salt & straw. sisters.

ingredients for a perfect sister date: sunshine. puppies. sailboats. overly friendly portlanders. window shopping. AND ice cream for dinner. sea salt with caramel ribbon and honey lavender - divine.

broken brights.

{angus stone at the doug fir.}

it's the magic mystery kind.

magnetic. ethereal. psychedelic. mesmerizing. 

hippie fest + really stellar dance moves + one big group of talented musicians = magic.

press play. do it. and try not to be inspired by alex's killer moves.

 -

do over.

ever wish you had a chance to re-do your terrible, awful, horrible weekend? 

two words: sunday funday.

{the do over pdx at produce row café.}

the happiest of all hours.

four to seven pm at Lúc Lác. sort of amazing.

and everything is going to the beat.

passion pit concert = one big crazy, sweaty dance party. so. much. fun.

september sunshine.

it's the little things in life. fresh flowers from saturday market. coffee from the coffee shop around the corner. clean sheets. scented candles. homemade chocolate chip cookies. love. love. love.

when i root...

i root for the timbers!

sunday song of the day: gregory alan isakov.

constant conversations.

one week until passion pit plays pdx. just a little bit excited.

how to: vacation in sunriver.

{attend a concert.}

{ride a bike in the rain.}

{best friends. brew fest. bend bros. ha}

{pretend to be bear grylls.}

{climb stuff.}

{get attacked by mosquitos on the longest hike. ever.}

{float down the river in a kiddie pool.}

{eat nutritious meals poolside.}

{watch the sunset over the deschutes.}

good eats: summer edition.

good drinks. good eats.

{sangria.}
