Dolled Up
To continue with my domestication house ware series, I wanted to show off these M-Cups that my friend Chris got me for Christmas. They’re “matryoshkas made to measure” and are a set of six dry-measure cups that nestle neatly just like traditional Russian matryoshkas. I absolutely adore them and must say that having fun kitchenware [...]
A Pictorial Guide To Avoiding Camera Loss
Andrew McDonald, an “author, writer, and biped from Melbourne, Australia,” came up with an idea to keep some photos on your camera with contact info in case you misplace it and the person who found it is gracious enough to try to return it to you.

First of all, it may sound silly to [...]
Snow Day: Part Deux
My husband and I scampered out into the winter night shortly after 10 pm with our cameras and floppy-eared fuzzy hats. The snow was positively powdery and fluff-like and I thoroughly enjoyed hearing it crunch beneath our feet. It actually felt more like we were wading through a field of sparkly dust, it was so [...]
