Ugh, looking at this photo has me depressed. I need to work on my work morning photos! On the weekends we have time to make sure everything looks nice and artsy and pretty. Weekday mornings are totally different. These photos are usually taken two minutes before we run out the door for work on our extremely unattractive porch. Nice. Once the garden is cleaned up I’ll have to make more of an effort to do my shots there.
Well, this outfit is somewhat unusual for me. I tend to steer clear of over-sized, flowy shirts and dresses. I just feel uncomfortable when I feel like I’m being swallowed up by my clothes. The solution? Sparkly gold belt to the rescue! Cinching the waste gives me the snug feeling I’m used to but still allows some movement in the fabric.

Also, I would like to point out, my hair is up in a bun. I did not shave my entire head except for the bangs. Not be a cute look.

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.

Really? Not a cute look? C’mon, you can help but love the girl on the right’s hair:

She really has everything but her bangs shaved. I seriously considered it after I saw this movie. (For like 0.2 seconds.)
And I kind of like your glamor in a grunge setting look on the porch.
She is pretty bad ass, and has the same color hair as me. I don’t think I could pull it off though!
