lunenburg is my
favorite town in nova scotia. it is a
beautiful little fishing village with the most amazing views as far as the eye can see. the streets are lined with quaint stores and restaurants and there is a huge artist community. surprisingly, i walked into a
store that is carrying MY work AND my friend
laura zindel’s work . . . small world, or what ? we were also invited to go sailing with some of the locals. what’s NOT to love about this town ?

big breakfast of scrambled eggs, asparagus, cheese + heirloom tomatoes . . .
followed by BIRTHDAY CAKE. yesterday happened to be my birthday, and my husband made me this sublime chocolate cake from scratch . . . mmmmmmmmm.

i bought this beautiful old corkscrew at an antique shop in a tiny town in vermont called
chester. the corkscrew reminds me so much of
wilma.

jw, wilma, and i are leaving tomorrow for our month-of-september honeymoon. we are heading to new england and nova scotia. where a better place to celebrate fall AND a new life together ? i look forward to a much needed slower pace and no deadlines in sight . . . . the last few months have been seriously nutty. i believe that four weeks of freedom and fun and relaxation is JUST what the doctor ordered. so bon voyage.
