A little bit about what’s on my mind this Friday.
5 Things Friday
1. In October, after my name change and all, I re-launched my design business with a new focus and new name. It's Studio Guerassio, and I focus on design & branding for the lifestyle sector (food & drink, writers, artists & makers, culture, events, balance &...

1. I am having a shoe dilemma. Specifically, a wedding shoe dilemma. I want to wear comfy, no-heel shoes in a shade of purple that matches my wedding colors. I've bought 3 different ballet slipper possibilities. One was the perfect shade of purple, but had toe...

1. The boy (fiancé!) and I had a walkthrough at our wedding venue with their coordinator yesterday, and picked out which areas of the Villa we're going to use for our ceremony and reception. Verdict: outdoor ceremony on the Lakeview Terrace, indoor reception in the...

1. The puppy is high maintenance for the next two week. She got herself an ear infection, and also apparently dogs get seasonal allergies just like humans do. So we have an ear cream, a special shampoo, prescription pills and Benedryl. And most of those have to be...

1. I'm a beta tester for a new stock image site, and it's awesome. (and also sekrit, sorry) So if you've noticed new header images on regular post series (Bits & Pieces, TTT, this), that is why. And I have more lined up. Bwahahaha endless photos. Sidenote: I actually...
5 Things Friday
1. I attended a pickling workshop at Treehouse this past week. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was still not what I had expected (if that makes sense). The speaker walked us through making pickles by fermentation, rather than the vinegar brine method I was...
