I’m kind of crazy about the idea of framing recipe cards from important ladies (or men) in your life and hanging them in the kitchen. And this image keeps popping up on my Pinterest feed so it seems a lot of you are as well! I’ll probably ditch the ribbon for my own space, but [...]
I’ve only had a chance to glance through the latest issue of Rue but I immediately pinned this image from the home tour of Brian Paquette. Don’t you wish you had a stack of those cards to hand out when people get on your nerves? Source: Rue Mag January 2012
Have you wrapped your presents yet? I keep finding stragglers once I think I’ve finally finished. And I just remembered I have a stash of unwrapped presents back in Chicago to handle tomorrow.

Having just learned of its existence last week I wasn’t sure what the site would entail but I had heard nothing but good things from numerous people. Sidenote: isn’t is strange how you’ll go forever without hearing of something and then three [...]
I took a little afternoon jaunt to the Galleria in Edina with my cousin and found some unexpected inspiration at Pottery Barn. I only had my janky phone camera handy so this is what we’re dealing with. Just use your imagination to make these images look fabulous. In person, they’re awesome. Trust me. First of [...]
