Our blog chronicles the lives of two thirty-somethings living and loving in Oakland. We talk a lot about food, wine, travel and our house - a 1916 Craftsman in a part of town that was once described as "up and coming."

BATHROOM

Authors: Becky Caudill

We still haven't put up the board & batten in the bathroom, but I'm going to call that room "complete enough" in case we never get around to it. In the meantime, I'm drooling over this shower curtain from Garnet Hill. I have what might be described as a problem with shower curtains. As in, I buy one every year. I have...

PERSPECTIVE

Authors: Becky Caudill

If I said what I really think about what's happening in our country in regards to women's rights on reproductive health, I'd have to use a lot of swear words and violent imagery. Instead, this pretty much sums up what I think in a much more dignified manner than I possibly could at this point.

AROUND THE CASA

Authors: Becky Caudill

It finally started raining here in the Bay Area and it hasn't stopped for days. Most of the local population is having heart palpitations and complaining most viciously about all this water, but I'm loving it. I love nothing more than sitting at my desk and looking out over the backyard to the misty rain (or torrential...

TINY UPDATE TO MY OFFICE SPACE

Authors: Becky Caudill

Since I started working from home (a year ago tomorrow) I've been bereft of a cork board and calendar. About six weeks ago I picked up a package of four cork tiles from Target for $7.99, and placed an order for what I thought was a huge calendar from One Kings Lane. The calendar arrived and it was much smaller than I had...

ALL THINGS BEING EQUAL

Authors: Becky Caudill

In my last post I shared with you an over-the-top beautiful house on Bainbridge Island, overlooking Puget Sound to Seattle. Everything about that house was grand and opulent. While it's fun to drool over those houses, the fact of the matter is, I'm not a grand & opulent kind of girl. My style is best described as Gap Chic...

OMFG - SEATTLE DREAM HOUSE

Authors: Becky Caudill

It's probably no surprise to anyone that's been reading for awhile that I'm kind of obsessed with real estate, and in general, house gazing. From the time I was a kid I've been fascinated with houses and how people live. In fact, my mom used to take me to model home open houses so that I could walk around and talk about what...

TECHNICAL QUESTION FOR BLOGGER USERS

Authors: Becky Caudill

I currently use Disqus for commenting and with the exception of it sometimes not remembering who I am or what my userpic looks like, and some comments that disappear into the ether, I'm generally happy with it compared to the native blogger comment system. (When are they going to get inline commenting?!?)
But, one thing I'd...
