{laundry day} Wake You Up to Say Goodbye

It's early, folks. Like, really damn early. Not quite 4 AM yet, and I'm waiting on my shuttle to get to O'Hare. Then it's off on a jetplane to Ecuador, where Joe will meet me at the airport. I'm beside myself with excitement...12 days of exploring, eating, beach-going, Andes-hiking, and best-friend-hanging (one of our closest friends is living in Ecuador, so we get to see him!). It's safe to say that I won't post at all until after I get home, so this little photo-roundup will have to tide you over until I return...

I love the light in this picture (full outfit post to come!)...

Admiring the gnarly, one-of-a-kind fruits of the harvest...

...which turned into this beet and carrot bread and this part of a nutritious breakfast.

I love the details of this outfit (note: that is a luscious silk Eileen Fisher maxi skirt, originally $212, with tags, that I snagged for $7. Thrifting is good).

Beverages. A killer bloody mary from my brunch with Betsy (so fun! I promise to share more details soon!), and waiting patiently in the early morning light for my Chemex coffee to brew.

I'm really happy with how my hair is growing out. Still weird and untameable, but somehow chic and sassy, too.

Okay, wish me luck on my voyage! I'll see you on the flip-side!!

Title song: John Denver, "Leaving on a Jet Plane" (does anyone else immediately think of this scene in Armageddon when they hear this song?)
