I don't want to brag or anything...wait yes I do!  My lovely little sister Meave is the pastry chef at Gjelina and her very own recipe for her famous bacon date scones is featured in the the March issue of Bon Appetit!  Check it out here.

If I could walk around in simple, silky wonderfulness everyday this is where I would start.  The AW11 collection from Kokoon is full of rich colors and classic silhouettes I can't stop dreaming of.

Here are a few shots of the kitchen remodel I've been working on.  All the new cabinets and the new counter has been installed, but it's still missing the big things like the kick plate,  a range hood over the stove and of course a fridge.  Next on the list:
roller shade
over the counter cutting board

After searching everywhere for the perfect round coffee table I have decided that it just wasn't meant to be, that and the fact that I rearranged the living room yet again and without a sectional in there a circle just doesn't make as much sense.  Anywho, my brother and his lovely lady  make amazing furniture out of locally sourced reclaimed wood and have agreed to make me the perfect square coffee table top for my hairpin legs.  I cannot wait for my rickety old midcentury table to be gone forever!

I fell hard for this bedroom.  Its clean and minimal but the warm leather on the butterfly chair and calming gray bedding give it a little something extra.  I've been slowly getting rid of things in my bedroom, the first to go was the pathetic excuse we had for an armoire which I replaced with two white bookshelves to go on either side of the window.  They look like built-ins and will completely disappear as soon as I get doors for them and paint them white!

Ohh I want me one of these!  So long bamboo cheese board that got all stained when a certain significant other decided to cut beets on it!

Love love love this look!
and dreaming of the day my locks are long and flowy again...
