I've always been desperately jealous of those folks who have such a crisp, clean entry that it seems like any decorations just stand out against a sleek door or perfectly coordinated brick. Being a condo dweller, we're lucky to have our own entry to our home rather than a communal lobby, but we're ...
The Fall Dinner Table
Happy first day of Fall, y'all! It topped out at 86 today, and there are still several 90+ degree days in the coming week (hello, Global Warming in the Ohio Valley...), but I'm doing my best to usher Fall and Fall weather into the bluegrass with as little power as I have. Namely, I'm celebrating ...
Time Away, Joshua Tree, and a Reset
I can't believe almost 4 weeks have passed since I last posted...
I'm not the first gal with a blog to admit that sometimes, it's difficult to come up with new content. I'm not a "mommy blogger" that can post photos of my kids, and I'm not constantly trying on new outfits to peddle to the ...
Light Summer Dressing
No, no... this post is not about the best way to dress your summer salads, rather how to dress your summer self in breezy, lightweight dresses that will keep you cool through the icky 80-some percent humid Kentucky summer.
Actually, as I write, the man and I are in Chicago, where the humidity ...
Summer, Finally
I'm so stinking happy summer is here!! Granted, I'm never a fan of Kentucky's blazing hot temps and humidity so heavy that my glasses fog up as soon outside, but there's something nice about seeing the sun out every day (when the summer storms stop) and leaving my coats in the coat closet where ...
A Tropical Tablescape
It's appropriate, given the forecast for the next 10 days (thunderstorms and humidity for everyone!), that I'm in something of a tropical mood. This weekend, I rocked a zebra print day dress, started craving mai tais and Pina coladas, and picked up an armful of tropical stems from Mahonia to put ...
Touring Bourbon
I'm a creature of habit, of tradition. There's post-Derby Sunday brunch, always heading to Chicago over the 4th of July weekend, Italian Creme Cake at the holidays. It's as if- over the years- I've created so many "always" in my life that there was no room for anything new or different. If I ...
Sorry for the Silence…
According to pro handicapper, Bill Doolittle, "The less you bet, the more you lose when you don't win."
Friends, may the sun shine bright on our Old Kentucky Home this weekend. May your glasses be full, may your pimento cheese be perfect, and may all your winning tickets bet the long shot. ...
Talk Derby to Me!
For at least 5 years, I've wanted to host a Derby party. I'm not the kind of gal that would want to go all red roses, horseheads, and turf on the table (though a turf table sounds like an awesome idea...), but I've always had visions in my head of girlfriends in wild hats, honey-drizzled fried ...
