Just ordered this new agenda, and have been waiting patiently for it to arrive in the mail! I'm all about list-making here at EmmieBean because it keeps me on track (which can be tricky when you run your own business) and it's fun to check things off when I complete a task. OCD anyone? ;)

I was so thrilled when I came upon this little blog last night! Dana and I have been visiting Jalama Beach since we were about 15 years old, but somehow never knew about this darling family farm stand. I absolutely love their simple packaging, like the label and old apothecary bottle of this wild sage honey.
When you're driving down Jalama Road, you only come upon six or so houses the entire seven miles, so I wouldn't have assumed such a vibrant farming community could even exist in such a small place! But apparently, it does, and it reaffirms why Dana and I have always said that when we have enough money one day, we'll buy a little plot of land on Jalama Road and build our dream farmhouse.
I don't know about those leather leggings, but this bag is gorgeous! Hand-dyed in a constellation pattern with leather detailing, it has just the right amount of edge.

An interesting notion by Mary Randolph Carter. Not sure if I fully agree with this idea, as I think great people can come from all sorts of backgrounds and homes- lovely or not, but it does speak to the idea that our home can enrich us and make us appreciate our lives that much more if it is something that is beautiful to us. It can inspire us to create, spend time with loved ones, cook, garden, learn, nurture... it can inspire us to live.
Things have been busy at Bear Cat Manor as of late, with lots of illustrating, cooking, and preparations for the even busier holiday season. Since we don't have a lot of spare time, and because D and I aren't generally big on baking, we figured TJ's box of cinnamon muffin mix would do the trick of satisfying our craving for anything with cinnamon AND making the house smell yummy.
Our experiment was successful. The muffins were pretty delicious, but now I am set on creating my own cinnamon muffin recipe over the holidays that I can truly say is my own. Will post the recipe when I do!
Saw this and had to run to trader joe's to buy hot cocoa mix right away. The chocolate shavings are a genius touch.
'Tis the season for naughty eating!

In recent months, there has been a lot of cookin' going down in our little hollow. I saw these measuring spoons and thought they would be a great addition to our current kitchenwares. And not only are they functional, but they would look pretty displayed on the wall when not in use!

Yep, pretty much sums it up. If there's anything I've learned about bunnies, it's that the furry balls of cuteness have a bit of an evil side. But I still love my own crazy little Mini. She's quite a character, and is always cracking me up with her weird little bunny-isms.
