I know I’ve been posting a lot of flower photos lately but I can’t help it because Trader Joe’s has the BEST bunches of blooms for under six bucks. You walk in and it’s impossible to avoid them. When I’m doing our grocery shopping on the weekends, a new bouquet inevitably makes its way into my cart. And, doesn’t this photo just scream Spring? If you haven’t checked out Lucky lately, the layout and content of the magazine has gotten significantly better in the last six months. And the numeral coasters were a Christmas gift from Joey.

Speaking of Joey, he had a big art opening at Gallery Zero over the weekend. This was his most ambitious showing yet with each painting measuring 4 feet by 4 feet. He just keeps pushing forward and I admire the determination he has when it comes to his art.

When I’m in a hurry, this is essentially my default uniform: a bright sweater (this one is from Zara) paired with my Rick Owens jacket. Oh, and no look is complete without neon nails!

My brother had a dinner party last week and when I came downstairs the next morning, a pineapple was sitting on the kitchen counter. As far as I can remember, neither of us has ever bought a pineapple in our entire lives. Thanks to the mystery guest for the gift!

This is on an average weekday when I’m just doing my thing and not all dressed up. The real deal.

I just discovered the most amazing crepes on the corner of 12th and S.E. Hawthorne. First of all, the guys are super nice and played me some Notorious B.I.G. tunes while I waited. Secondly, the pear, gouda, walnut and honey crepe they made me was heavenly. The best combination of sweet and savory ever!

In closing, this should give you a better idea of the scale of Joey’s newest work. These pieces are huuuuuge. I’m so proud of him! Have a fantastic weekend and I’ll see you back here on Monday! xoxo

    The Pineapple story reminds me of an episode of How I Met Your Mother called “The Pineapple Incident.” You guys should watch it.

      Stefanie B: It seems like whenever I’m sitting in my office at night, reruns of that show always come on. I feel like I’ve seen most of the episodes by now but that one doesn’t ring a bell…sounds entertaining. ;)

    Joey’s art is absolutely amazing! I can’t believe he fit those in that studio of his LOL, I guess in photos the studio looks quite small! Also, if I had some money, I’d probably buy the one with the red dots on the side.

    • Nubby says:

      Melinda: His studio is definitely on the small side and the ceiling peaks with the angle of the roof so he actually had to completely move his setup over to one side while working on this new series. Glad to hear that you dig the red dot one!

    where did you get that awesome red cross dish that’s next to the pineapple? i really like it! hope you at least got to eat the pineapple.

    omg.

    1) I totally organized my bookshelf by color because of you. (I wanted to do the shoes on the bookshelf thing too, but I only own like 4 pairs of heels so it looked dumb.)

    2) I have also acquired a pineapple post-party. I think it had something to do with the fact it was a fancy cocktail party?

    that is all for my strange coincidences.

    • Nubby says:

      Danika: Organizing books by color is so visually pleasing, glad you’re digging it! The pineapple is still sitting in the kitchen, hoping try some this weekend. ;)

    the gift of a pineapple is very good luck especially to the host of a party or friend! They are meant to bring good fortune.

  6. Jane says:

    Love your blog but I gotta admit- the flowers, shelves, and nail polish photos are getting pretty redundant. And the Week in Pictures has now just become a collection of Instagram photos you’ve already posted on twitter. Looking forward to some fresh new content!

    Oh man, if you like the Creperie, you and Joey should check out Central, the cart’s spin-off restaurant located downtown. Crepes + Cocktails!
