simple + pretty

It’s a busy holiday weekend. (Is there any other type?) On Saturday, I hope to hit Greer and Anjenu for some last minute card shopping. Then, we’re having “dinner in the city”: year two of a tradition for our family. (Oh, and Chicagoans: there will be three hours of This American Life on WBEZ this Saturday. Last minute fundraising treat!) Sunday? I think that will be tree decorating day. I bought this and can’t wait to incorporate it into the tradition mix …

On with the Five:

1. evening
2. Milk, vanilla cupcake (2)
3. four stones on the ice
4. Old money
5. sugared almonds

We’re in the home stretch! Have a great weekend – see you Monday.

p.s. You lucky nyc-ers, Paper + Cup (Friday) and Moontree Letterpress (Saturday and Sunday) are at, or having, holiday sales this weekend. Check them out for your last-minute paper needs …. (Sesame Letterpress will be at the Sunday show location, too! Bonus!)
