2015 Goals

I always like to set goals for the year, not resolutions exactly, but things I'd like to do or start doing more of this year.
These things include;
- Go on more weekend getaways & roadtrips
- Do more projects - a headboard & bedside tables are on our list
- Read more books - I'm currently reading California by Edan Lepucki
- Finish my granny square blanket - I'm about half way
- Finally try my hand at calligraphy - I've had a pen & nib set for a while, but haven't used it yet
- Clean the kitchen every night - this is going pretty well so far, but we did run out of bowls the other day, oops!
- Keep the cookie jar full - after looking through all the recipes I have bookmarked over the last year, I decided I really need to start testing them out to see what ones are keepers. So, I'm going to make a different type of cookie each week for the year. That's 52 cookies to try out. Totally manageable, right? It's been going well so far, but more on that later.

What about you? Any goals for 2015?

Now for a little throwback to OTH. Do you guys remember Jack's Mannequin? Well, the frontman is back with his own project Andrew McMahon In The Wilderness. This song came on the radio the other day, and it made me think of you ladies. The song is named after his newborn daughter, and is kind of like a time capsule for her, beautiful.

We are heading to Portland bright & early tomorrow for the weekend. Looking forward to doing a little shopping, wandering and a lot of eating! I'll post some photos when we get back.


Sending love,
