craftacular tomorrow



graze

mmm...graze

large window in the back let's you see into the kitchen

i love the green and bamboo combination

view from my seat

i even liked the bathroom



 graze is the new restaurant from chef troy of l'etoile.  i have been waiting for graze to open for sometime now, and i love it.  yummy food, great prices, and one of the best views in madison.


sail away


i had the pleasure of sailing with planet propaganda people on lake mendota.  sailing = fun.

zip dang





zip dang is madison's new boutique for handmade ladywear.   owner/skirt maker natalie bass has been making skirts and selling them on her site orangy porangy for years.  her skirts are the only skirts i wear, and i LOVE them (natalie is pretty fantastic too). 




maxwell street days


every year the capitol kids crew works at maxwell street days, a huge street sale in madison. this year it was super hot...high 80's up to 90. richie and sam decided this cooler would help beat the heat.
