Easing back into this whole “blog” thing, like an old lady into the ocean or any person into an extremely hot bath. And on the theme of ‘you’ve got to start somewhere,’ let’s look at some photos of our (by which I mean “my”) patron saint/spirit animal/what-have-you—little Martha Stewart. Maybe she didn’t really even care about hosting the most elaborately perfect Easter luncheon yet. I like to imagine that her clothes were balled up on the floor of her closet. Still figuring it out.
Breaking from our double feature series, I asked our Big Shots to take a shot at reviewing bits and pieces taken from The Commitments—and to do it separately! This may or may not make you want to watch the movie, but at at least the post itself will be a wild ride! -ZE Continue reading
We just wrapped up an unseasonably hot, summery and at times warmly glowing weekend up here at the Treehouse. Meanwhile, I’ve been swept away by a gaggle of friendly ladies, playing ping pong as the aforementioned warmth peters out for the day, and feting a tiny friend-to-be (a note: we should all be so lucky to have a baby kegger in place of a shower).

Big Shot Movie Club is back with some unusual tales of devotion to remind you that love takes all kinds. Continue reading
Single White Female is a feature that truly lives by the adage, “imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.” The first two installments brought you the best of the boob tube and the second, Hitchcock blondes. In lieu of the popular new year mantra “be more creative” I’m taking it to the canvas by bringing you women of the art world. Let us ogle jewelry, fashion’s wearable art, through the imaginary lens of four feminine creators. Kahlo, Bourgeois, Krasner and O’Keefe – meet your metal match. — Sarah Hardt Continue reading
I’ve been hit by that flu that’s circulating, so things are mellow here at the Treehouse today. Here are some January tunes for whatever you happen to be up to. My other/better half helped me pull this list together because of my relentless delirium! Since January is all about shedding dead weight and starting new beginnings, these are all songs off of various artist’s debut solo records. Specific, eh? Hope you enjoy! Continue reading
