Here's To Summer

And all the joy that comes with it! Blink and its over, so savor every day. I will get back to some regular posting, I promise. With James keeping me up most the night, and client work waiting for me during the day, blogging somehow is getting lost in the shuffle. But I've got some things I want to get off my chest. See you soon!

Country Living

You are getting hipper by the second.


Check it out on newstands now, its pretty good I have to say. Or online here

Mothers

In my opinion, make the world go round. Happy Mother's Day to all my readers. And yes, we have baby! James Winslow born last week. He is a wonderful gift for today.

Lovely

With those breezy curtains. Still no baby!

Waiting

for baby here. Still no go! I think I'm going to take a little blogging break. But I'll be sure to post a few baby pics. In the meantime, check out interior styist Katie Seller's site. Wish me luck!

Getting There

With this new house, I gained the best and worst yard I've ever had. By that I mean I never had so much of a space, which is fantastic especially in a city setting. But the worst part is it has pretty much gone untouched for 10 years. You can all guess what that does to a yard. But the last few days brought some serious improvements compliments of sweat equity. Hubbie really needed to get a mental break, si I think it helped him digging in the soil a bit and planting some grass seed. It certainly doesn't look near as good as these fabulous spaces, but its progress. One can dream.

Happy Easter!

I wanted to wish all my readers a wonderful, peaceful weekend. My crazy life consists of a husband in the hospital (he's ok and coming home today), a baby coming ANY day now it seems, and a three year old excited for the Easter Bunny. That's how it goes!

PS Dreaming of actually sleeping in the bedroom as well. It's been about three years and counting now.

A Life Examined

Searching for some new books for my library early this morning, I came across this amazing photo of Truman Copote by Slim Aarons for sale.

I immediately got a shot of adrenaline, thinking how we all need to strive for style, humor, and authenticity in our lives. Truman had it all.


PS For a mere $3500 bucks, the photo is yours.

Green and Black

So pretty, yes?

Rubie goes to bed

I was excited to see Rubie Green launch an organic bedding line yesterday. I think her popular "East Village" in pink makes for an adorable duvet and I am highly considering it for my little girl's room! The price is a good fit in this economy. I can't stand to see $200.00 shams, so for Rubie's price of $78.00 for the pair is a good value for all that organic yumminess. Good luck Michelle!
