Garden in the City


Over the weekend I unexpectedly happened across the park by City Hall. I've passed by the outside countless times and never knew there was a little oasis on the inside. We had just grabbed some Vietnamese subs and were going to walk around the Cambie Street area, but instead we ended up on a park bench taking in a beautiful summer day in the city. Photos were taken with my iPhone.

{Shop Stop}: much&little




much&little is a beautiful shop in the Mount Pleasant area. It has a feeling of vintage and modern mixed together, with jewelry pieces and household goods that I would love to have in my home. I'm thrilled to have my greeting cards here, along with a few other wonderful card lines. Each item is hand-picked by owner Sarah Savoy, and so thoughtfully laid out and displayed, making this shop a very special place to be.
