Summa's, Sweets and Short Hair


Stephen received two Summa awards the other night.
Let me tell you..I could not be a more proud mom.
He received them in English and Music.
So proud of you Stephen.


Griffy and I made the Neiman Marcus cookies.
It's been too long.


Thanks Catie for the reminder. 
Love these cookies.


My friend Dawn just got this cookbook and I knew I needed it too.
I've always been a GP fan.
I'm loving this book...there are so many things I want to try. 
I think my love of Gwyneth started with a hairstyle.
Remember her short haircut?
I had it years ago and loved it.


Oh how I wish I could pull that off again.
This time of year I'm ready to chop off my hair.
I think I was about 27 here.
We were living in Germany and Steve went off to Bosnia.
So Stephen and I flew home to the Cape for the summer.
And I chopped off my hair.

Not so sure it'll look as cute 16 years later.

  1. I think you could pull it off! You have a very pretty face, and that's all you need to pull of short hair.

    Those cookies look delicious!!

  4. Congrats on those awards! I know I would have been blubbering in the audience.

    And, man...bring some of those cookies when you come over. I am in need of a total sugar fix right about now.

    You could totally rock that hair style. You are adorable in that picture!!!

  6. Go Stephen!!

    Do it! Change is fun, and it is only hair. It will grow back if you don't like it!

  7. We've made the Neiman Marcus cookies many times. I haven't had one in years though. Now I would love to have a few! :) I love that cake/cookie stand too.

    As I'm writing this, Boyd just ran in the office, saw your cookies, and said, now I want a cookie. ha.

    I have been thinking about shorter hair too. I saw Bridesmaids this week (hularious) and her haircut is so cute and fun. I am a chicken.
