Thinking About

What I would put in those upper cabinets; stacks of white serving dishes, colorful cookbooks, ceramic jars? It's such a pretty kitchen, isn't it?!
My Home Ideas

Continuing through November

The thing I like about Halloween is that I can take down the spooky stuff and keep all the Fall inspired things up through the month.

What's your favorite variety? There are hundreds you know.

Treats of Course

These look like the ones for me!

I'll Take It, All Of It

I love that there are so many unexpected elements in this room. My favorite is the picture ledge. Or maybe it's the stone bowl. Oh, but there's the tufting on the couches and that clock. I just can't decide! It's nice when a single room has so very much to offer.

Bake Sale

This looks like good old fashioned neighborhood fun. Check out this adorable blog and organize your own Treat Street.

Sit Awhile

I adore the idea of a banquette. It's perfect for morning coffee and many more practical things like family dinners and homework time. Please note that the afore mentioned table would work wonders for this set up too!

I heart this

Karyn introduced me to this new blog and I adore it. I think it is so fun that someone likes J Crew so much that she has created a blog about it. All J Crew all the time. I too heart J Crew so I get a kick out of it.

Stating the Obvious

This is a beautiful table! I'd put it in a dining room with 4 white upholstered chairs around it. It would be my new favorite thing.

Weekend Plans

I have big plans to do a whole lot of nothing with some girlfriends this weekend. There are few things that measure up to some female bonding time and what it does for the soul. I plan on getting a lot of upper body exercise with the cocktail shaker as my primary tool of weight lifting. Hey, it is hard work shaking that thing to pour the delicious treasures that await the perfect martini glass.

In good spirits!

Easy To Please

A copper bread box.
How can something so simple give me the sense that it would bring me pure happiness each time I looked at it sitting on my kitchen counter? The search is on.

Get it while you can

As I sat in the dentist chair for 2 hours yesterday the only thing that kept me happy was flipping through the last copy of Gourmet magazine. The November issue is the final publication. So if you have ever relied on this magazine for Thanksgiving menus or cooking tips it does not disappoint. Even if your not a cook pick one up for nostalgic sake.

Set The Table

Aren't these are great examples of fall style table settings? In our home we use a tablecloth many evenings during the fall. It just feels right.

That's a Wrap

One of my favorite parts of the season is the chill in the air and dressing for it. I always invest in a few wraps for the season. They are so versatile and usually provide the perfect amount of warmth for our California cool days.
