Bemused

Fans of our unfortunate dental signage series can never get enough, so here's our latest find. We've heard of painless dentistry, but super beds and booths? What on earth are they drilling for these days, and why (on appointment day) must we recline? This is a disturbing "new era" for the profession indeed!

Wired!

Much machination goes into getting Utton Bay firmly wired into the web. Who would have thought I'd have to do the wiring myself? Hand me a 50 foot spool of Belden RG-6/U and a crimping tool!

Huron a Roll

What am I doing measuring the outside window of a bank in the quaint little Huron Village neighborhood of Cambridge?

All will be revealed come this Saturday -- when a long awaited Utton Bay window display is installed, thanks to the kind folks at Cambridge Trust. Stay tuned.

There IS Such a Thing as a Free Launch

What a lovely day for a pre-launch of Utton Bay to the public. In this case, a select few of my closest friends. We gathered in the afternoon on a patio not far from my own Cambridge studios. Perfect weather and perfect company. A big thank you to my best dressed favorite clients!

Sun of a Gone

Where's the sun? Certainly July won't stint on sultry summer weather. Or will it? This tanning parlor's window display tempted me to get my quota of sunshine by artificial means. But I confess to wondering what "it" refers to, if not one's own pale self!

Just Beachy

I am back from a holiday weekend trip to a secret beach resort on the Chesapeake Bay, where I enjoyed perfect weather for back to back summery surprise 40th, 86th and 96th birthday celebrations for the Firecracker Girls, with nears and dears from far and wide. A lovely roadside snack of native crabcakes en route to Manhattan, arriving just in time to hear fireworks boom on the Hudson.

Sea of Buttons

Uncharacteristically quiet because I've been sewing like mad. I embark on a trip this weekend with a stop in NYC on the way to a secret destination.
