Kitchen Tweaking
Not only have I been enjoying my new “BPR” way of thinking, but I also have been tweaking things around the house. I started in the kitchen with a simple swap of a few items… I adore a lamp in the kitchen! Your kitchen is not only a place where you prepare meals, but it is Read More
New Oil Painting
I began collecting oil paintings a few years ago! Art is very personal. It should speak to you in a way that makes you smile. Its value doesn’t necessarily need to be driven by its price tag or if it’s a “signed” piece. Handyman Husband and I were recently invited by my client and dear Read More
Pumpkin Cheesecake
This week I hosted Lily Garden Club, and we met on the screened in porch! It was a lovely, crisp evening. For this group, the host or hostess provides a dessert and coffee. I served Pumpkin Cheesecake, and Jill, a dear church friend and avid reader of my blog (thank you Jill!!!), approved of this Read More

Connecticut: Part 4
We finally ventured onto the interstate and headed down towards Mystic. There were absolutely NO billboards or advertisements along their highways. It made for such a pleasant drive. As we headed towards Mystic and the coast, we detoured over to New Haven to see Yale University. Such a treat with its amazing history and architecture! Read More
Connecticut: Part 3
We adored the quaint towns as we meandered across the state of CT! We happened upon a wonderful family owned garden center that also housed the sweetest “farmer’s market.” And antique shops popped up all over the state… Everything was so lush! The concrete was fun to see! I loved this bunny honoring our “Bunny” Read More
Impromptu Entertaining
Although it’s nice to plan your party with weeks notice, it’s also fun to plan one on the spur of the moment! My client recently did just this! She decided to host a casual birthday celebration for her husband with two days to spare. The venue was their home and dinner would be served outdoors. Read More
