Friday Fun: Male Model walks the Chanel show with his Toddler Son

I love fashion week in NYC, but I try to keep up on the subsequent weeks in London and Paris too. Chanel held its Spring 2011 show in Paris this week to excellent reviews - for Karl Lagerfeld's designs, the amazing location and its A-list crowd. But now all everyone's talking about is the runway walk Brad Koenig took with his toddler son. In matching jackets & jeans, they make an adorable pair. Click to enlarge the photo.

Friday Fun: Real-life Candyland

Need a little break on this Friday afternoon? Since it's unlikely you have an aromatic garden modeled after childhood-favorite board game Candyland to escape to, why not watch a video of one?

I loved Candyland growing up - a great mix of luck and skill not too hard to enjoy or too boring (I'm looking at you Othello!) to finish. I also love candy - and fear for my health if a real Candyland existed. But this garden takes the fun of the journey through Candy Cane Forest and Molasses Swamp sugar-free. Plus it only took 7 months to create/grow, but think kids - or anyone who loved Candyland as a kid - would love it forever.

Gone Fishin'

Captain Juliet at the helm

I've obviously taken a break from the blog for a while.

It's been a busy summer. Not just for the usual suspects - long lazy weekends enjoying the city, exploring the world or visiting family - but also due to huge increases in my photo editing & photography work. At one point I worked 2 weeks straight between travel photo editing, corporate portrait photos, TV fan site photo design and of course baby photography.

But it wasn't all work and no play. We've taken a few little trips and will definitely take more soon. With a husband in academia, these summer days are fleeting. And given the choice between late nights chasing fireflies with my daughter and updating here, I'm chosing fireflies.
