Out in the open.

3 Comments Posted by on January 13, 2012

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted some room pictures on this site; sometimes I forget that collecting interior inspiration was how my blog got its start. So I’m getting back to my roots today to share a gorgeous kitchen from Country Living. Open shelves styled with white dishware gets me every time — [...]

Brunch.

I hosted my book club for brunch this weekend and had fun setting the table with a new tablecloth and some Spring flowers. Champagne glasses and cloth napkins made a get together with the girls a little more special. I served popovers and fruit salad, and some delicious whole wheat banana pancakes with cinnamon butter, [...]

Cook Book.

10 Comments Posted by on February 22, 2011

I took my gazillion recipe cards and print outs and tears from magazines and finally organized them all in clear sheet protectors in a binder that matches my kitchen. It feels good to be organized and makes the “what am I going to make for dinner” nightly dilemma a bit more manageable after a long [...]

Dream Kitchen.

7 Comments Posted by on February 17, 2011

I saw this picture this week and my heart melted, isn’t this kitchen gorgeous? I’m a jadeite collector and always feel like it’s hard to display the pieces without the room looking theme-y or overly country. But this kitchen is a perfect balance of modern elements like stainless steel appliances and barstools with time-worn kitchen [...]

My new kitchen is a million times more functional than my old kitchen, cooking is finally fun again. It didn’t start out super functional though, here is what we were working with when we moved in: The cabinets you’re seeing in that picture are the extent of them — I guess they just gave up [...]

Something old, something new.

1 Comment Posted by on May 18, 2010

Almost everything that I’m bringing into the new apartment is a craigslist score or hand-me down, but I do have a short list of “new” purchases that I’ve decided on. One of them is a kitchen cart because there isn’t a ton of concealed storage space built-in (and that was checked off the list yesterday after [...]

Life without TV, Day 2.

Leave a Comment Posted by on February 10, 2010

Day 2 without TV left me with another night of lusting for Bravo reality trash. I managed to zoom through the first quarter of Elizabeth Gilbert’s new book Committed, and broke out the label maker to label the back of all of my magnetic spice containers. I definitely appreciate the words of wisdom from my [...]

Think pink.

It takes some serious guts to paint all of your kitchen cabinets pink. I once painted the bathroom in my parent’s house this exact color. Let me just tell you, it gets old fast. My Dad is color blind, thank God. via BeachBungalow

Delightful gifts.

I get so excited to find a new shop online that features fun, unique products (not that I need any more incentive to shop online, but still, it’s exciting). Delight.com has a great curation of distinctive products that would make really special gifts for a friend’s birthday, or  an inspired wedding shower gift or maybe just for me [...]
