i've found myself wandering.

wandering around asheville in the spring time that is. what happened to spring in eastern north carolina? we skipped it i guess. i forgot there was more to this season than just the sneezy, phlem filled days of allergies.

i'm lingering in my day and a half of temperatures in the low 60's with plenty of sun, lots of new blooms, and a few fun appointments.

food worth traveling for.

so in case you hadn't figured it out by now my food loyalties run strong. i think it is genetic. anyway i have a little tip for any and all of you living in or traveling to asheville, nc ... go to the admiral. apparently this little wonder of a restaurant has been open for just over two years now but i only happened upon it last night (one must love moms who know that daughters & sons-in-law are fond of food adventures). mas went so far as to say that it was very nearly as good as flatbread ... and you guys that is HUGE. flatbread has a special place in our hearts, duh, but their food is phenomenal so when you can get mas to compare anything to said restaurant, well dears, you know that the food they serve is worth traveling for. i have a feeling that mas will be making it on more of my asheville trips in the future.

on our agenda for today, 12 bones, and oh yeah, vampire weekend, oof i love mini vacations!

and here we go again.

it was bound to happen i suppose. i couldn't live an entire county away from my one and only little outpost. so, yes, i've another shop ... really a studio ... i'm not selling anything but custom paper goods here as it is solely appointment only.


so, if you were to swing by west asheville (508 haywood rd to be exact) you would see that inside the bloom room there is quite a bit of beautiful paper goodness. that is right i've teamed up with stacey who is simply amazing (and no, not just because she did the flowers for our wedding). there will be a party early summer to celebrate but for now asheville brides and paper people call/email/stop by to make an appointment.

{i'm very excited about this}
