    You say tomato I say toh-mah-toh

    This story began in April with a few heirloom tomato seeds that I bought from Beekman 1802. They grew slowly into spindly seedlings which I then planted into the rock-hard soil and waited for a miracle. From the original 20 or so seedlings only 5 survived and grew into these… I’m starting to believe they… Continue reading

    DIY: Industrial Dining Table

    Even though DesertMan and I moved to the ‘burbs we haven’t stopped having a life. On the contrary, we seem to entertain at home more often than when we were city-dwellers probably because we have more room now!

    Belated travel post

    I am posting this now as a permanent testament to my persistent predilection for procrastination (and aliterations, obvs). This Christmas, Hubs and I treated ourselves to a trip back home. There were churches to visit, great food to sample, spooky castles, more food, snowboarding and good times with friends. Continue reading

    Spring has sprung

    Easter is finally here and for the first time we’ve had some mildly warmer weather. To celebrate I decided to wear my best and brightest, dress that is. I was surprised to find this Ralph Lauren trench/shirtdress thing on the sale racks at TJMaxx and even more surprised to find that I quite liked it.… Continue reading

Writing about what I know (mostly) and enjoy (always) as often as I can (which is not very): style, design, scent, visual art. Sometimes I take pictures.
