Faye is 7 today, woo hoo!

Happy Birthday Faye!

 

Today's Out & About took place at the Millbrook Diner, which has been one of my fav places to go for years...its an awesome dinner...and a must go to for eggs or the greek salad if you're in the area!

Jacqueline had a dentist appointment today, so Renee and I decided to invite Jerry, a BOY (gasp, I know!) to come along with us as another photographer and even better...to give a sneak peak of the cuff links that will be available as of April, 2010. To see all of the photos from the Out & About adventures, please visit the Manic Trout Facebook page...and while there, show some love...

All of the recent sunshine and warmer weather has made me crave pretty dresses, green grass and flowers...Spring is almost here!

The girls and I were feeling a bit stir crazy in the studio and now that we are right smack dab in the middle of the village, we had the urge to get out for a bit. I have actually been toying with the idea of photographing some jewelry on us in various places...and that was how Manic Trout Out & About was born.

Every Wednesday we will take a bag of jewelry to a local haunt and snap some pics as we take in in the place. Today's Out & About adventure brought us to Babett's Kitchen in Millbrook where we enjoyed a divine snack and my favorite coffee around!

Any suggestions of where you think we should go next week?

 

I am kinda digging the tulle bracelets...

I went larger with the tulle so there was just one big burst in the final version....like a brooch...Oh how I LOVE a good brooch! While swathed in tulle I decided to give a bracelet a try too...I need feedback please!!

My sister Holly does, thats who! Holly decided this past year after teaching in Philly that she wanted to make an even greater impact on helping the world become a better place. She moved to Austin, Texas and has started a non profit center called Your Mothers House.

Mission Statement
Your Mothers House aims to create opportunities, remove limits, and provide choices for members of the local community who are looking for ways to creatively express themselves while reaching out into their local community. We will accomplish this by creating a center of exchange between community members for creative talents, community outreach, and redemption for volunteered time from our hunger relief center and use of facilities.

I am so proud of what my little sister is doing, please go check out the site...she has just put it together to provide more info that it does! If you live in Austin, please consider helping out in some way.

Yay Holly, I'm so proud of you!!!

 

I have been a social media networking fool this past week end...it all started with teh snow storm on Friday when I had a few extra hours in my schedule due to weather related cancellations.  I got REALLY into twitter...I can see how if used a bit smarter it can be not only a pretty cool tool, but also pretty fun!  I then started to explore LinkedIn some more...not 100% into yet, but getting there!

If you have not laready and would like too...check out the Manic Trout Fan Page, Manic Trout Group and Sierra Bailey on FaceBook, Twitter and Linked In!

I also wanted to give a bit of BlogRoll Love today and tell you that I found the most incredible blog ever, I was so excited that I had problems focusing to read...its that good!  If you have a creative business, you MUST go and check out Crafting an MBA...hey, why are you still here?
