Judging by the photo below, you may think I do not have hands. I do – I swear! This fluffy yellow confection just so happens to have pockets! Ah pockets, how I love thee! This has to be my absolute favorite skirt. I love the color, high waist and full skirt. The picture makes it look longer than it actually is, probably falls an inch or two below the knee. It’s still quite warm today, but was kind of gloomy looking this morning so I figured the color would cheer me up – it did.
Note to self: Do not wear this skirt when riding a bike. Most normal, intelligent human beings would have been able to figure that out before embarking on a bike ride to work. Not this girl! Giant gray smudges (I’m assuming from the wheels) all along the hemline. Thankfully a quick scrub in the office bathroom cleaned it up. I’m a smart girl… I just do stupid things.
Also, apologies for the poor picture quality. My personal photographer, aka Ross, has been slacking as of late. Today he was too busy “leaving for work” to get a decent shot. I’m not always smirking – I promise.

Salt = sodium = bad.
Sweet = calories = bad.
Well, isn't that just a bleak outlook. I firmly believe that without salt and without sweet we all just live in a world of lettuce. Plain lettuce. Fun? No.
This blog is about life. Namely, my life. But, not that specific. I myself am simply not that interesting. I live an ordinary life, work an ordinary job and do ordinary things.
But... life is all about experiencing that feeling you get when you really, really like something. If you don't feel a little warm in your heart when you walk into a farmer's market or try on a piece of beautiful clothing that fits you perfectly (that just so happens to be a great deal!) then you should probably keep on a' movin' from my little plot of internet.
Sweeter salt is my metaphor for the good things in life, sprinkled over everything in moderation. Banana? Kinda boring. Banana smoothie - yum! White tank top? Yawn. Statement necklace layered over said tank - now we're talking!
I live in Portland, Maine. I love cooking, eating out, riding my bike and approachable fashion. This blog does not chronicle my every waking moment. This is because you will probably not be entertained by the 10th day in a row that I eat the exact same salad for lunch. It does chronicle a healthy, active, fun-filled, colorful lifestyle, in Portland and beyond.
It also covers dogs. Cute ones mostly.
