Surf & Sand

Here are some pics from July's mini vacation at the Surf & Sand. I love how different cities have different colored sunsets. In Laguna, there's always this beautiful amber glow.

Bathroom Inspiration 2


This is almost the same size AND layout as current bathroom! I'm gonna try to work in some pretty wallpaper like this.

a Jag for Dad

Like many people in their generation, my parents have been green since.... well since forever. Everything was/is reused and recycled. Everything was/is salvageable. A pair of supermarket flip flops could last, give or take, 5+ years. My dad, in particular, is a modest spender. He's frugal with his personal expenses but always generous with us.

With Simon's return home, my dad finally sold the ol' Mercedes whale on Craigslist. This was the perfect time to do a little car shopping. With the much appreciatted assistance of friend extraordinaire Joel, we surprised my dad with a beautiful Jaguar XF in vapour grey.

He was definitely shocked and funnily a little mad that we spent the money on him. After the initial shock passed, he got really into it and is now loving his new ride. This was one the funnest experiences!

The Next Bath Thing


Minus the peacock, this is what I would like to do to our Southwestern style bathroom. We probably have to tone down the modernity a little... but I'm loving the dual showers! Hopefully it won't take long to save up for this project.
