an update!

we are happy to report that there are little buds on our trees and daffodils peeking up randomly across our yard (WHY can’t they just stay put around the mailbox in pretty little bunches??) which means: spring wedding season is upon us! this past weekend we split out time between the lowe’s garden center and the absolutely beautiful wedding celebration of margaret & daniel- it could not have been a more excellent pairing! but we’ll talk all about that later, in their wedding post. ;) for now, just a scattered little update on the altmixes:

our website! over the past couple of months we’ve been slowly updating the site, re-writing some copy, uploading new images- just generally refining and cleaning things up. and, finally, for the first time since december of ’09, we took new images for our blog header! we’d love for you to click over and check out the new look- any and all stella compliments will be passed to her in the form of a treat, go!

in other news, the garden is about half planted and we’ve thrown down some clover seed in the yard. really all that means is that the lovely view from our kitchen is now of a somewhat organized mud pit. we’re crossing our fingers for a lush, green, delicious result! but for now:

other than that, we’re attempting to cut back on our coffee consumption so please bare with us as we whine and adjust. ;)

i’m noticing that this post is getting progressively more personal. i can feel the rambling starting in the recesses of my mind and if i let this continue i’ll end up telling you all about my current honey versus sugar dilemma and trust me, that would just be too much. so, instead! please do click over to the updated site– we’d love to hear your thoughts!
