This week...

Whew. Thank heavens it is Friday. Honestly. I hate to be a downer and I hate to complain - really I do - particularly in a space that is supposed to be full of pretty things and a source for inspiration..this week has been a doozie though. I feel drained and overwhelmed. I have been doing my best to keep my chin up, but man it has been hard. Here are a few things that helped make this week a little brighter - or at least interesting.

Sorry to vent. Hoping next week things are back on track. I know in your worlds there are weddings this weekend and babies to swoon over. Here's to a weekend full of love and baby cuddles. See you on the other side.

Telluride Brewing Company finally opened! Rebecca and Scott - wish we could be sharing a beer together this weekend. Matt and his motley crew got on their snow bikes (Pugsley) and rode across the valley floor to the brewery after work the other night. Matt was very proud of his hunting and gathering when he arrived back home with a delicious growler of beer for us to share.

I had to go up to Montrose on Wednesday for a doctors appointment. I won't go into details, but please please make sure to not only wear gobs of sunscreen, but it must contain zinc oxide. Anyway, while there I went to the "big" supermarket to pick up some items. This was a display inside. So absolutely random. Cause when you are shooting elk, someone better bring the Gouda.

It is the weird "in-between" season here. Too cold and wet to bike, but not enough snow to really ski just yet. I took the dogs on an afternoon snow hike. And, yes, it was as cold and dreary as it looks.

Gave a presentation at one of our local schools for work. They have a huge wall dedicated to student artistic interpretations of bikes. I went a little nuts snapping photos. I absolutely loved this project.

The dogs got new toys this week. Belle sniffed hers and has been snuggling with it all week. Maddie immediately destroyed hers - I have never seen so much stuffing!

bike days

It is finally feeling like Fall here in AZ!  
Bike riding season is here again!  
Wouldn't you love to find this on your bike? 
The Tucson Bicycle Belles are going to design their own to give out.

Happy riding!

Friday Faves

Hi all. Another week has wizzed past. Where is summer going? I feel as though I have barely had time to enjoy any of it. Hope everyone is having a lovely summer and have some fun this weekend!

I remain infatuated by table skirts.

So pretty in pink.

These geode earrings rock.

Seriously. Check out this kitchen. Perfection.

A bike seat on a wall? Love.

Yep. I dig it.

Thinking someone around here might deserve this. Possible weekend project for me - yay.

Things I Am Loving (Friday Edition)...

Loving this collection of doors.

I just want to sit and be still. Here would be lovely.

I want a collection of Turkish Bath Towels. Badly.

Loving every single piece that sfgirlbybay is taking with her to Paris.
I wish I were cool enough to dress like a Parisian.


I so want this to be true.
[from: that's happy]

I need to spend time at this pool. Or any pool for that matter, but this one is pretty dreamy.

Ridiculously excited for the Tour de France to start this weekend. I am seriously obsessed.

Happy Weekend. Sorry for the lack of posts lately, life has been busy. 2/3 of us Blog Girls are getting together this coming week - I am sure fun posts will follow. YAY!

Let it ride...



Look. I am not a bike junkie. I have a crappy townie - which gets me where I need to go. I hang around with a lot of bike junkies though - ones who could spend days perusing bike websites drooling over this frame, or hub, or whatever. Me, I will stick to the graphics. Cause that "I get." Like this uh-mazing design on the front of a bike shop located in Austin, TX. I could care less about what is happening inside this shop - cause I just can't get past the awesomeness located on the outside. This shop logo is beyond clever. Boom. Unreal. Face melting. I know. Crazy right? I am usually so prep - and this is so edgy & urban. At least for me anyway.

Terrific Telluride

Winter - where art thou? The mountain is open - but we need more snow - desperately. So, until winter decides to arrive, I am going to reminisce about summer. THIS is why I live here.

Loving everything here. Today. Dig it. Boom.

One Week....


And we are checking in here....amazing! Stone House 1854, in Little Compton, RI. It's all I can do to get through these next 3 days of work....pinch me please!


I already picked what I am having for dinner at the "pub"....1854 (I chose for KP too)
Swiss Fondue To Share - Grissini, Gherkins, Olives & Crusty Bread $8
Old Stone Orchard Seasonal Greens, Tiny Tomatoes, Fresh Herbs & Citrus Vinaigrette $6
Maine Halibut Fish & Chips, Hand Cut Fries, Creole Remoulade & Grilled Lemon $16
Run Dog Run Farms Chicken Pot Pie - Beanhouse Farms Vegetables, Vermouth, Simple Greens $13
Platter Of Hand Crafted Fudge For The Table $7
Birch Beer Float, Vanilla Gelato, Little Cookies $6

They have bikes for you to use, it is close to some historic mansions, and basically I am thinking of moving to Rhode Island before I have even been there! There are also signature cocktails in the afternoon, a.m. yoga, and I am thinking the breakfast is going to be a little more than "continental"
I love 1854!

Crushing On...

Leah Duncan today. A girl after my own heart - awesome pillows AND a bicycle print? Swoon. Check out her website for more, or do a little shopping in her etsy store immediately.

Today - Take Two...

Just one more, I swear. A bicycle dress? Yes please and thank you.

I want to go to there...

I want to live here. Could I really leave Telluride? Not that I would miss it too much. I would be too busy reading newspapers in bed, drinking french pressed coffee (black, naturally), and planning my bike ride around the [presumably] super hip neighborhood. Sigh. Lovely.

I like to ride my bicycle...

Though it is threatening to snow today, I saw this and couldn't help but daydream about hopping back on my bike once it warms up around here (as in May - ugh, that is too far away!). Love these. More here.
