Date March 15, 2009

Here’s a little sampling from February. You can see them all here.

Feb 3: Just love the idea of trying to get a sense of people’s personalities from just looking at their feet.

Feb 7: Thanks to a recommendation from Kip, we tried the Hangover Soup at Sidecar and it did not disappoint.

Feb 9: [...]

TOAD: Favorite photos from January

Date February 16, 2009

Rather than post every TOAD I post on Flickr on this site as well, I’m going to do an end-of-the-month post every month and highlight the handful of photos I liked the most. I’m a little late with January’s faves but here you go…

Jan 1: The dismantling of the Christmas tree and the putting [...]

Resolutions for 2009

Date February 1, 2009

Hello, February! As usual, I have no interest in starting resolutions on new years day. I like to settle in to the new year, see how it starts and then decide what I’d like to work on for the rest of the year. Sounds like a good excuse for being tardy, right? (Shhhh. It is). [...]

365 in 2009 (formerly known as Take One A Day)

Date January 4, 2009

After taking a year off (and seeing a drastic drop in my overall photography) while Karen represented in 2008, it’s time for another year of photos (see 1 of 365 above) .
I’ll be posting a photo a day over on Flickr with the occasional cross-posting over here on the blog.
Stay tuned!

Alex’s Goals for 2009

Date January 2, 2009

As I head into 2009 and start to think about what I want to accomplish, I wanted to look back at some of the things I set out to do in 2008. You can read them in their entirety here, but at a high level they were as follows:
1. Get down to 200 pounds and [...]

So many TOADS

Date July 19, 2008

Some TOAD highlights from the last month….

I can’t think of a single shower that we’ve had this summer that wasn’t a total downpour. Here’s the result of a Saturday afternoon storm a few weeks ago. It flooded our entire patio (as we watched) and then later we wondered “Hmm. Do you think the basement is [...]

Memorial Day Weekend Adirondack Chair Smackdown!

Date June 1, 2008

Continuing the tradition of weekend backyard improvement, we ordered a pair of Adirondack Chairs from, where else, adirondackchairs.com of course!
They arrived earlier in the week and we set out to put them together on Saturday morning of Memorial Day weekend (hence the name of the event). To keep with the spirit of how we like [...]

Some Garden Renovations

Date May 20, 2008

This past weekend was one of those amazing weekends in which you are productive from beginning to end. Almost to the end I guess. Ending at the Dram Shop after the 5th avenue street fair probably wasn’t super productive for a Sunday afternoon, but we did get to catch up with some friends and watch [...]

First Day of School!

Date May 19, 2008

Sort of—first day of class at least. Today is my first day of a CSS + XHTML class at NYU. I’ve been meaning to take this class for some time, but the dates never really worked out. Since the letterpress class I wanted to take was full, I figured why not get my CSS on [...]

TOADs

Date April 13, 2008

I have become so terrible about posting my TOAD photos that I now feel like I need to make an announcement every time they go up. I’ve been waist deep in freelance lately and finally got around to posting the last two weeks of TOADs today.
The above is a little teaser to get [...]
