Orange you glad you aren't a popscicle?


So my friend Dain bought Derek a book about popscicles and a frozen pop mold for his birthday. Since we've been busy moving and traveling we hadn't gotten to use it yet. Last night while Derek was still off recording I decided to surprise him and make orange juice pops! I knew we had a fairly relaxing weekend ahead of us, and it was going to be sunny and hot (finally!). So I filled up the molds and stuck them in the fridge. Unfortunately I got a little carried away and fell in too. Oops!

I finally got out when Derek got home, and got hungry. And the pops were still delicious.
Oh and Happy Spring!!! What would you put in a popscicle mold? We're going to have a house warming party soon and hopefully have lots of declious frozen treats to serve our friends. So let me know if you have any good ideas!

Side Note: We went to see Alice in Wonderland last night, so maybe, just maybe this was a bit inspired. I liked the movie, but thought it could have been a bit more fantastical and outrageous considering the director and cast. None the less it was cute.

Babe the Cow and Frozen Cornfields.



I finally got back some of my film from my Christmas trip to Connecticut. This is where I grew up, and where I truly feel at home. Derek now understands why I get excited to see cows on the side of the road when we drive up the California coast. Although he looks miserable in the 2nd picture (which I love) he felt right at home here also. So without further babble: Ashford, Ct via frozen ponds, cornfields and cows. Enjoy.

I figured I'd post these now before spring is in full force.

Blog Love

Happy Monday!

Just wanted to say a quick hi and let you know Derek is being featured on one of my favorite peoples blogs today as part of her Music Monday feature. Go check it out and give Dainty* and Derek some good lovin'.


We're moving this coming weekend, so we have a very hectic week of packing ahead of us. I'm also trying to get some last minute things done for Derek's brothers wedding in two weeks. I found the perfect dress yesterday (and it was super cheap) but I need to get it taken in, and need to find shoes. I don't really do heels, I think they are uncomfortable and I am already pretty tall so feel like a beast in them normally. However, since this is a black tie wedding I have to suck it up and go buy some.

Friday I'm also doing a sexy little shoot with my favorite hair and make-up artist. She is about 7 weeks pregnant, and wants to do a fun shoot for her husband before she gets her baby bump. Its going to be a crazy week, but all worth it. I'll try to check back with updates along the way.
