A couple of weeks ago, we were invited to join some family friends for a Saturday dinner. Thinking there'd be a small meal and a lot of Bourbon, we were pleasantly surprised to find ourselves in a kitchen buzzing with activity. Husband was bright-eyed and excited over some thick pork chops he'd ...
Thanksgiving- A Pheasant-Filled Table
My sweet readers, a beautiful Thanksgiving week is wished to you! Easily my favorite holiday- one centered around sharing a meal and sharing ideas- I've always found that Thanksgiving can get lost in the shuffle. Halloween decorations are always out with school supplies- spider webs and skeletons ...
Welcoming Fall in Color
We get slightly cheated on Fall. Fall in Kentucky is almost always either 90 degrees or below freezing. The leaves sometimes don’t change color at all- instead, they stay green on the trees until an Arctic blast of a cold front rolls through then *poof* they all dump on the ground in one big, dewy ...
Huber’s Orchard… Good for the Gourd
Today's weather was just about perfect. With a sunny sky, and weather topping out in the high-50's, it really feels like Fall has made it's way to the bluegrass. With the man's momma in town for the week, I decided to take the afternoon off and make the quick trip to Huber's Orchard for a lunch of ...
Bricking Around
It's a hazard of being a Realtor who loves their job... I have a way of falling in love with almost every home I step into. I find myself thinking of how I would use the spaces, where furniture would go. At the very least, I realize that I'm brainstorming kitchen renovations and how to reconfigure ...
Setting the Table for Fall
While it's officially been "fall" for two weeks now, here in Louisville, we've only had the random mild day weather-wise. Temps are still topping out at 90 (I know, because I spent yesterday sweating my brains out at the St. James Art Show), but cooler weather is on the horizon with sub-70's ...
Patio Beverages
Finally, friends. Finally, there's a light at the end of the scorching hot Kentucky summer, coaxing me out of my air conditioning and onto patios and into gardens, enjoying afternoon bites and beers.
To me, there's nothing better than winding down a workday with a cool drink and a sweet friend, ...
Oh, Now I See…
I think I was 5 or so when my parents started to fuss at me for sitting too close to the television. Daddy would be trying to watch UK basketball, and my giant head would be right in the way. I didn't make it into first grade before I started wearing coke-bottle glasses. Coupled with buck teeth ...
4th of July Tablescape
My favorite time of year is a very happy toss-up between the week of Derby and every day that falls between Thanksgiving and our annual holiday trip to Chicago to see the Christmas lights. Falling just behind, though, is the moment I get to set my table for my birthday, for the 4th of July.
