Ronald Gunderson is an architect who got the idea to craft structures out of whole trees and now own a business devoted to building eco-friendly structures from whole trees and also preserving the forest with his partner, Amelia Baxter. Read the whole article here.
The idea is that curved lines such as those in a bent tree offer more support than a regular arch.
It makes it easier that it’s beautiful too. How lovely is this living room? Granted, I get a little bit of a ski lodgey vibe from it, but life is a trade-off I suppose.
I am so excited to cheer on my marathoners this weekend! They have been working so hard to get to this point, and honestly, I am in awe of how hard they have worked to get here. While watching them train has truly destroyed any interest I may have had in ever running one, I think it is great they have all gotten together to run it and have worked so hard at completing such a feat. Not to mention the collective $10,000 + they have raised for their collective charities.
Thus, in no particular order, good luck and congrats to:
1) Lindsay
2) Carson
3) Nick
4) Connor
5) Hunter
Kick some ass kids!
These kids are beyond adorable… and the clothes are pretty precious too.
I swear this is not a biological clock-type thing. Well, not totally. I’m going to be an aunt soon at least? Aunt-E.
1) Michelle and I are wearing creepily similar outfits today. I feel so fipster-chic. (if you are my mom and did not understand that, it means “faux-hipster”)
2) The woman in the purple down coat is sorely overdressed. It is 60 here in New York today people. Enjoy it while you can.

“Freddie goes to see Whitney at the Longchamp party. He kisses Olivia on both cheeks when he arrives because they know each other, probably from lounging at Bliss and eating brownies and cucumber slices together over Page Six Magazine.”
From the nymag recap of last night’s episode of The City. If you’re not reading this site’s recaps of all things modern tv (Gossip Girl, the City, the Real Housewives when the season’s relevant) you are seriously depriving yourself.
Also, for the love of God; Erin, FIRE OLIVIA. (ps I am fully aware it is staged…)
