hiking in stilettos: human

Thursday, October 22

i love seeing where and how other people live...

what their living rooms look like,

what foods are in their pantries and cupboards,

whether they have messy closets or neat ones,

what they carry in their bags on a daily basis, etc.

that is why i adore this project:

he takes a portrait shot

and then a shot of what is in the person's bag.

i love it.

my lovely friend lesley wrote about it on her blog. check it out!

i looked through all sixty pictures in the set last night,

and i was intrigued by every one.

it's so interesting to see what we all deem necessary daily items.

check out the collection, and let me know what you think!

i fell in love with this idea when i saw it here,

so i've decided to write a few little letters myself.

dear husband,

thanks for taking me around the city in search of anna sui...
and for checking the oil and tires on my car...

and for making the bed in the mornings...

you are so very good to me.

dear max the mini cooper,

thanks for withstanding our two hour commute each day.

those winding country roads wouldn't be nearly as fun in any other vehicle.

dear sweet sweet parents,

thank you for everything you did for the wedding.

it was so very perfect and magical,

and i will never forget a moment of it.

dear cinnamon vanilla creamer,
i'm glad you are back.

you make the cool morning drive that much more enjoyable.

dear e,

you are truly the best bestie i could ask for.

je t'aime.

dear little sheep,
i really adore seeing you on the hill each morning,
sleeping in the early morning fog.

dear lady at the coffee shop,

thanks for always smiling

and for wishing me a good day.

dear sweet lesley,

i simply adore you,

and your sweet family will always hold a place in my heart.

who would you write a little letter to today?
