Many years ago, in the time before Covid took us all by surprise, I was proud to gloat that I'd only missed one Derby since I was 18. In 2017, the hubs and I flew to New York to surprise our always Derby-date, who was a patient at Sloan Kettering at the time. We donned Derby gear, her husband and ...
Wallpaper Favorites
If any of you have been paying the slightest bit of attention to our home reveals, or if I'm lucky enough to have ever had you as a houseguest, you know that I'm a bit of a wallpaper hound. I love the way a great paper can make or break a space. Think of your grandmomma's 1970's bathroom versus ...
Sip on This: Our House Old Fashioned
As much as Bryan and I travel, I'm continuously surprised at how difficult it is to grab a great Bourbon cocktail in other cities. In Chicago, the first place we found Old Forester was at The Berkshire Room (then and now one of our favorite bars in the city). In Southern California, we searched as ...
On the Reg: Blogs I Read Habitually

To me, if there's ever a room in a house in which you can go slightly overboard and a little wild, it's in these tiny occasional rooms, and if said powder room happens to be the space where guests always steal away for a quick toilet ...
Resolve
I stopped making New Year's resolutions a few years ago, and instead began focusing on a word or phrase that would carry me through the year. In 2021, it was a toast "To Your Health." I thought it meant I'd be on the Peloton every day, watching my diet, and losing a few pounds. As it turns out, ...
Cheers to 2022
The last couple of years have been a little difficult to say the least! I'm wishing you the best this year. Whether you were surrounded by loved ones and bottles of Champagne, or if you were snuggled at home alone with a book watching the ball drop, I hope that this calendar flip brings us a ...
A Note on Cheese Week
There was a meme floating around the internet a few years ago with two stick figures side by side. One was smiling, wearing a Santa hat, and above, it read "December 1st-25th: Festive!" The other was slightly plump and holding a block of cheese with a miserable look on his face. Above, it said ...
