Do you remember this collection from Pottery Barn last fall? (I get the catalogue just to find inspiration photos I can try to copy. Shhh, don’t tell). I was THRILLED to see bold, graphic upholstery featured as this time, I was sure, they copied me!
This little beauty resides at my house, next to the man [...]

A. and I spent this past weekend with my family in the town where I grew up. We watched one of my little brothers play high school football, golfed, lounged, and ate and ate and ate. It’s what we do.
On Sunday, after a “fine repaste” prepared by my father (his words), we indulged in my [...]

Hello, lovelies, I have quite the treat for you today! I stumbled upon a new blog last week and have been devouring all of the eye-candy ever since (I gorged myself, it’s true). Life in the Fun Lane is written by the lovely Holly….

So the other day I had this itch. An itch unlike any other.

I had to make bread.
What? Did you think I was going to [...]

Get it? Mantel? Hahaha…oh, I’m glad I can make myself laugh.
Anyway, way back when, I mentioned the problem I’ve been having with decorating our mantel. This is what it looked like then:
I love the cutesy houses and the weird vase (that I’ve been told resembles Larry the Cucumber), but I know that it just looks [...]

Gather round, my darlings, and let me tell you a story. A love story.
A few years ago, after I had finally escaped the horrors of dorm living, I moved into an apartment with one of my older sisters. She is kind, funny, and generous, and she is also extremely pragmatic and organized. While I am [...]

Edit – I was very pleased with the title of this post and pointed it out to G. I wanted to make sure he knew how hilarious his wife is. He said “That’s good. Like the band AND the pumpkins are smashing (as in fabulous).” Huh. I only thought of the band. See, I AM [...]

Many thanks to Abbie for directing us to this site.
These Jessie Steele vintage aprons are SO incredibly chic, and very Mad Men-esque. They make me want to put on pearls, spray my hair into a fashionable coiffure, and maybe sip something out of a cut-glass tumbler. Maybe.
What do you think? Could I rock this?
Love the [...]
