It rained CATS AND DOGS most of the weekend. So I got busy building out a whole new set of planter boxes. We still had left-over cedar hanging around the house from when we built the fence, so other than the price of a few boes of fasteners, these planters were built on the cheap!… Continue reading Planter Boxes & Starter Plants

Sneak Peek
Here’s a sneak peek on a project that I have been working on. It’s for my local, East Dallas coffee that’s located inside my breakfast taco joint. Stay tuned!
Yuccas, Cedar Raised Beds, and Backyard Arranging
This weekend Erin and I did some re-arranging in the back yard. We also made a trip to Ruibal’s and cashed in on our gift card (thank you to my parents). I also made 3 2’x2′ planters using left-over cedar from our fence project. The pink and yellow benches are from Matt’s El Rancho. They… Continue reading Yuccas, Cedar Raised Beds, and Backyard Arranging
Seed Starting
I’m expanding the garden this year. Even though Dallas has barely emerged out of “drought” status, I’m going to tough it out.
Ice Cube Celebrates the Eames
This is goin’ green, 1949 style. Enough said.
Neil Swanson – Guitar
I shot this a few weekends ago and finally got the edit done. Neil asked for a documentary-style approach, where he could talk about his passion – what he does, how he picked up guitar, and how he makes a living doing it. I’m happy with the way that this piece turned out. The color… Continue reading Neil Swanson – Guitar
New Pendant Light
We got a good deal on this beautiful Stonegate pendant light. It fits perfectly in the space, and with our sense of style. I’m very excited to have Robin and Keynan visiting – they are very handy and have made so many cool changes in our home in the past few days.
2011 Pumpkin
I gave a wacky design a shot this year. It didn’t turn out exactly how I wanted, and it was a late-night carving session after a huge dinner. So I was tired. Nonetheless, it looks cool!
ModMen Party
Erin helped host a ModMen part with Rachael from Deer Dallas this past June. I put a video together while at the party and never got the go-ahead to post it. We were waiting and waiting for DeerDallas to go live. But no progress – eeek! I saw that the photos from the event were posted… Continue reading ModMen Party
Mozzarella Pesto Pizza
More no-knead pizza action last night. The veggie pizza was good, but the mozzarella pesto pizza turned out amazing. Mozzarella Pesto Pizza – 1 batch of no-knead pizza dough (see Jim Lahey’s method here). – pine nuts (substitute with pecans or walnuts if you’re feeling frisky) – 3 bunches of basil (and I mean a… Continue reading Mozzarella Pesto Pizza
