Yesterday Cameron and I spent the day in Fort Worth celebrating our anniversary and checking off a few items from my architecture bucket list. It was architecture nirvana!</div>

Usually I find a few things from 3.1 Philip Lim that I think are cool, but this season I was really intrigued by his whole collection. The word that kept coming to mind was "ugly" and yet the close weren't boring or banal or tacky, they were ugly done in such an interesting way. It got me wondering if I had gobs of cash would I go for the interesting ugly look or play it safe with things that look "good" and are a bit boring. And as soon as I typed the last sentence the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vaQ-Y6kLOM" target="_blank">words of Garth</a> popped into my head.<br />

Watching two black and white movies about New York in two days feels random but I just watched Frances Ha and it was really incredible. I put it in my top two list for the year along with the hunger games which makes it in by default since it's the only movie I can remember seeing in the theatre this year. But back to Frances Ha, it's on Netflix and has some foul language but is really a fantastic movie about friendship, creativity, life in general.

You don't think about it, and when you do achieve something, you know luck has nothing to do with it."<br />
<br />
I came across this quote from Kurt Warner, while helping my son with his state report on Iowa. Somehow it has inspired my to keep at the ol'art making while in my currently position of unpaid grocery shopper, maid, childcare provider etc. and who knows what can happen in five years, I could be playing in the NFL.Danielle Hatchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12739102948118834936noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-582587908180609688.post-84798533296794691712013-12-09T19:24:00.001-08:002013-12-09T19:24:23.508-08:00The Big City<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I watched Woody Allen's Manhattan today for the first time, while doing the dishes/laundry (hey if I can't talk to other adults while visiting art galleries the next best thing must be watching people act out the scenario).<br />
<br />
I was so moved by the gorgeous cinematography and the musical score. The acting was great, I love me some Diana Keaton, and minus the slightly creepy vibe of Woody Allen dating a 16 year old, I felt transported back to my few visits to Manhattan while Cameron was living there (though sadly there was no mention of Dominican food which remains a cornerstone of my New York visits).

It sounds strange to write that, but tonight I was driving home from a meeting with a few friends and we were recounting stories of great intentions and ideas gone awry. I don't remember the last time I have laughed so hard hearing a friends story of her failed attempt to make wassail with grapefruit and the look on her guests faces as they sampled the drink. The conversation gave me some much needed perspective about dealing with the small failures that inevitably occur each day.

This would be the shortest I've ever had my hair since my bowl cut of 1983 (which I must say has stood the test of time, well done mom). So I type in short hair pics to pinterest and find a link where the first five pics include, katie couric, jane fonda and sharon stone. yikes I was not off to a great start. I have a sinking suspicion that short hair won't look great on me but I want to give it a try before it looks like I'm sporting the q-tip look beloved by elderly women everywhere.<br />
In the off chance that anyone reads this blog and wants to have an impact on your friend and or family members hair, let me know which of the following choices you prefer (if you prefer I not cut my hair don't tell me that as it will most likely make me want to cut it all the more, as Cameron has sadly discovered).<br />

I bought these bad boys at TJ's in Salt Lake today and they provided a much needed pick me up at the end of a long day with the boys after my three day vacation. I missed my little guys but boy can they wear me out. I look forward to the day when vacations become a bit more relaxing once again, but until that point thank goodness for sea salt and chocolate!Danielle Hatchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12739102948118834936noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-582587908180609688.post-73410496613175082932013-07-01T18:44:00.002-07:002013-07-01T18:44:34.244-07:00Pretty PicturesHere are a few of my favorite looks from the Dior Couture show.<br />

The proportions on top of this dress is a little stuffed sausage for my taste but the texture and colors are great.<br />

I always feel uplifted and in awe of the great variety and strength of these women. Here's a quote that really struck me from an <a href="http://www.mormonwomen.com/2013/05/09/playing-from-her-heart/" target="_blank">interview</a> with Tina Richerson:<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If we try to live up to some ridiculous idea of perfection we totally miss grace, we completely miss grace. Grace is something we need to embrace; the Lord knows us, and He doesn’t want us to be like everyone else. He didn’t make us to be like everyone else. We’re all individuals and he needs us to do his work to build up Zion to strengthen and edify each other. We are all part of the same body but if the body is walking around with the knee thinking it’s supposed to be the nose or the head thinking it’s supposed to be the shoulder… You can’t do your job if you think you are supposed to be something else. Just find out who you are in the Lord and make your space in the Church. </span>Danielle Hatchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12739102948118834936noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-582587908180609688.post-69740360284051867642013-06-28T17:45:00.001-07:002013-06-28T17:45:54.343-07:00Garden EnvyTwo days ago while getting my tires changed I secretly stole a page out of one of the magazines in the waiting room. Actually I take that back, after four hundred dollars spent I consider that I paid for the page I took. But anywho it was a blurb about a monograph for the landscape design firm Nelson Byrd Woltz. It was just a few sentences but the small photo was so beautiful I had to look them up to see more. Here are some of my favorite images from their <a href="http://www.nbwla.com/index.html" target="_blank">site</a>.<img height="352" src="http://www.nbwla.com/portfolio/private_gardens/images/tupelo/2.jpg" width="640" /><br />

Sending me catalogs filled with lovely patio furniture I can neither afford nor house. For some reason I'm obsessed with the idea of relaxing in a nice patio chair and reading a book in silence. hum....on second thought I suppose I know exactly why this sounds nice, but on the upside we did take a family trip to our apartment pool today and in spite of the icy water temps we had a great time.<br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Typically this blog is for things that inspire me, but in my quest to be inspired on pinterest I was accosted by this image with the title "<span style="background-color: white; color: #171717; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;">nutella brownie oreo cupcakes with nutella frosting". I mean really! I used to eat Nutella by the spoonful in Italy but even I think this is going too far. A brownie cupcake with an oreo shoved into it and covered in Nuttela, that is just crazy.</span></span><br />

A great interview with one of my favorite designers Dries Van Noten. Those Belgians, so creative and yet so grounded and thoughtful (truthfully he's the only Belgian I'm familiar with but I'll just assume they're all the same).

And I have no idea what is being advertised in this poster but I kind of love it. (unless of course it's some recruitment poster for stalin's youth organization or something, Russian anyone?)<br />
