Posting has been on hold this week while we lavish in some good family time and catch up on projects. I’m really looking forward to celebrating the New Year. It’s been one of the most interesting years of my life. So many drastic ups and downs. I am hopeful that we’re on an upswing.

I don’t generally make resolutions, but this year I’m vowing to live in the now a bit more. I think goals are different than plans. I have many many goals and instead of worrying about whether I’ll be able to achieve them, I’ll just continue to work and live and find pleasure in the little joys of the everyday.

I wonder, do you have an resolutions or goals for 2012 that you’d be willing to share?

Earlier this week I shared my Svpply with you. Since vacation is coming up for a lot of us I thought now would be a good time to suck you into the aesthetic vortex that is Pinterest.  Here are a few of my favorite pins from my fashion and style  and pretty pinboards. I dare not share my deliciosity board with you for fear you would go on a sugar rampage!

Plus, here are lots of interesting links to keep you busy:

  1. A great story from the Moth story slam
  2. The charleston dubbed to Daft Punk
  3. Werner Herzog eats his shoe on a bet with Errol Morris
  4. Angelika Taschen’s minimalist and yet  eccentric apartment (see the Jurgen Teller print above her bed and her t.v on its box)
  5. Tiny perfume bottles blown large in photographs
  6. Charlotte Gainsbourg in the recording studio
  7. Bethan Laura Wood
  8. Nice Danish apartment
  9. Photos of teenagers
