Oh, How They Grow So Fast

This is cute packaging, for that family that wants to track growth but not mark up their walls. Are there any 2 1/2-year-olds out there that might be interested in one of their very own? (Available from Miss Natalie's Etsy Site)

Duffy

We went to see Duffy at the Hiro Ballroom Monday night, and she was amazing! She had the Number One single in the UK (I think she just got bumped), "Mercy". We will definitely be looking for her to come back to NYC soon - check out her official site here.

This Makes Me Smile, Part 1

Not only is this kid adorable, but I love this picture because it just goes to show it doesn't matter how posh your parents are, a 3-year-old will always do what they want (for the answer to this child's famous parents, scroll down). PS - just to be clear, I did not take this picture myself in London, but it goes with the English theme I've got going.....

This Makes Me Smile, Part 2

Off to Iain and Connie's

We had the pleasure of spending a night in the country at Iain and Connie's while we were in London. We always like going to their converted-schoolhouse home and hanging out with them and the girls.

Why I Love Dirk.....

....because he knows the way to my heart is through my stomach, and the fastest way there is on the Cadbury Creme Egg express (this is also another example of great English design).

I Love English Design

I love everything about England, especially the design of everything there. That goes for the groceries as well - now that I visit with a native Londoner, we always make sure to get some favorite foods while there. This is by far not the healthiest assortment, but it is all good and just looks so English to me! Even the Cheerios are more attractive.
