It’s been a little more than a year since we first posted on Domesticated Artists! Over the course of that year, this blog collaboration has changed a lot.. mostly I do all of the babbling and Forrest provides all of the (good) photos. We’re going to keep it up because, well, why not? Here’s to …

on high land
To make a long story short, we were desperate for a getaway and very short on time. So we headed up to Highlands, North Carolina for a couple of days. It was perfect and lovely. We stayed in a swanky hotel, ate some amazing meals, did a little shopping, chased nature down some terrifying roads, …
my guiney
I was lucky enough to know all four of my grandparents and three of my great-grandparents! It’s kind of wonderful, really. Many people don’t have that privilege. My great-grandmother, Guiney, would have turned 101 today! She was an incredible lady- a painter, a world traveler, a writer, a college grad, a musician, and so many …

Gorgeous (and delish) tomatoes from City Roots. Grown in downtown Columbia! Are you keeping up the website Hello Giggles? It was started by Zooey Deschanel (plus a friend) and now a lot of different people are involved with it. Mostly, every once in a while, they host a live streaming kitten cam! It’s pretty adorable. …
drat the cat.
Well, I was all prepped to just post a photo of these flowers. Aren’t they lovely and yada yada. Until I left them out in cat territory and Hemingway ate one. She ate the petals, anyway. Luckily, we witnessed this transgression and immediately researched anemones and their potential to kill a cat. The ASPCA doesn’t …
on democracy and skunks.
Election years make my blood run a little hotter. Why is it that people who know the least seem to talk the loudest? I’m taking preemptive measures to keep myself sane and civil this year. Starting with Facebook. OH, thank you, thank you, Facebook for finally adding that “unsubscribe” button. It’s the only thing saving …
