I'm Susan — devout Francophile, mother of twins, writer, creative director, and aspiring author. I've been sharing my life here since 2010...thanks for reading!
This week has been dominated by news of devastation and struggle. Tough times remind us to appreciate what we have, and seek comfort in family, friends, and home. A warm meal shared with loved ones is more important than we realize on a daily basis. Take some time this weekend to appreciate small pleasures, get cozy, and devour some delicious comfort food…these recipes will get you started!
salt + pepper
Our little baby shakers! There is a double meaning as well, as mr. fleurishing and I have names that begin with s + p, and have always jokingly said we go together like salt and pepper. How appropriate for our mini-me's, right?! We hadn't planned on involving the babies in halloween this year, simply because they are only 3 months old. However, after seeing these costumes I couldn't resist. So we had fun dressing them up for photos and grammy & grampy, but we will not be trick or treating. Can you imagine-they don't even have teeth to decay. Wishing everyone a happy halloween!
**thinking of all those who took a hard hit and are recovering from the storm**
A favorite outtake from a recent shoot…cracks me up every time.
For those who don't stare at them as much…

some cuteness to start your week…lundi (henry) + mardi (marie)!
I am officially thirty-three years old today…do you see it in the tortoise shell?! Totally on trend, right? Thirty-two was an amazing, beautiful, memorable year, and the year to come holds so much excitement for me! The term "birthday" has taken on a whole new meaning now, as I celebrate the two little lives we brought into this world. They are my precious gifts, now and forevermore. I also consider all of you gifts, and I treasure the friendships I have formed online. Thank you for reading, as always!
