for the love of candid.

Kitchen

The past few months can be summed up in a lot of "still-life" photos (mostly of craft projects, brussels sprouts and running shoes). My life was full, but in a completely different way than it is now.

I love these photos that my dad snapped at dinner last night for their candid-ness. It's the details : Paul covering his mouth - which is his go-to "shocked" face. His arm on the back of my chair. A full table of wine glasses. Me telling the chef I had "@-ed" him on twitter and then him pulling his phone out to say "OH! So this is you..."

We had a fantastic dinner up in Sacramento last night at The Kitchen. It's an experience and a half and one we'd been waiting a long time for. It's awesome to have a little bit of the night saved. It's even more awesome that our families are good friends and that a dinner with all of us together is easy and comfortable.

My name is Elise Blaha Cripe. I live in Northern California with my husband and our two daughters.

I make stuff like it's my job.

In October 2019, my book about getting stuff done, Big Dreams, Daily Joys hit bookstores everywhere. For almost ten years, this blog was where I shared (daily!) general life musings, insight into being a small business owner and the occasional craft project. I have closed comments, but feel free to email me at elise[@]elisejoy.com if you have any questions about a post you see here.

If you're new here, I invite you to browse the archives, read my small business story or start with some of my favorite things to write about, DIY home decor & goal-setting. You can also listen to my motivational speech about the power of making bold statements.
