Quote of the Week


I've been playing around a lot lately (if you haven't noticed little tweaks to graphics, the blog header, collages, etc) with graphic design lately and I think I'm loving it.

Another thing that I've always been drawn to is quotes. For some reason sometimes a block of words really resonates with me and back before the time of pinterest, I had an entire email folder with different quotes I found on the interwebs that I would email to myself. Now, my "Words I Like" board seems to be one of my most popular, so I have a feeling others feel the same as I do about quotes.

I decided to try and have more structure on this little blog so every Monday I'll be working on my design and photography skills by combining quotes I like and photographs I take. 

I've been reminding myself of this phrase lately and have been taking even more walks than usual to try and get my head on straight. Work in progress :)

Happy Monday everyone.

Winter Weekend







 Oh Nemo. Actually you weren't that bad. In all honesty, snow really doesn't scare me. ESPECIALLY since I no longer have to drive in it. For me, Hurricane Sandy was way more scary, Nemo, not so much. Anyway, it really wasn't all that crazy if you're used to some snow (which considering most of my readers are Upstaters, it ain't no thing). Basically, it just means Central Park was a madhouse on Saturday! All these city people who rarely get to play in snow went buckwild. Every little hill had sledders on it and there were more snowmen than I could count. Overall, it was pretty awesome. We took about a 2 hour walk all through the park and ended up climbing to the top of Belvedere Castle (after a minor incident that involved us getting stuck in a restricted area and jumping a fence. Unfortunately, that was not documented). Anyway, the view at the top was gorgeous. The park was covered in snow, the sun was about to set and the city was right in front of us. Overall, it was one of those days when living in Manhattan was pretty cool. 

Hope everyone stayed safe these past few days and had a great weekend!
