Metapost: Independence, a bit early

fireworks by roxyturtle This is the first time I can remember July 4th being on a weekend in awhile. The holiday observed on Friday has been stretched a little bit and I’m headed off to Cape Cod for some delectable seafood and beach time. It’ll be the red, white and blue all the way.

Metapost: Blog’s summer makeover this weekend

Ah, summer is here. I’m wearing my New Idyll Dress ($148) today and impatiently waiting for tomorrow so I can bask in the sun a bit. By night I’ll be working on updating the blog’s skin for summer. The photo above was my color inspiration. Please pardon any downtime this weekend — we’ll be back up and running by Monday.

Metapost: Be back soon

A little R&R is in order and I’ll be taking a short break. I’m off to Colorado to visit family and friends and they’ve made it clear no laptops are allowed.
