February 13th, Galentine’s Day…. A holiday that didn’t exist until Leslie Knope brought it to everyone’s attention on Parks and Recreation. I love the idea of a day set aside just for me and my girlfriends, a time to celebrate each other as well as our friendships. And, if ...
The Christmas Table
My obsession with Pottery Barn's buffalo check spilled over into our dining room this season, where we've already hosted a couple of holiday meals. These fun, seemingly casual plaid plates looked a little regal and sparkly when combined with a few other simple elements, like clean linens, ...
Deck the Halls!
I do love the holidays. While my Thanksgiving is my favorite (Derby not included), it's the Christmas decorations that get my heart swooping. This year, I found myself swooning over the black and white buffalo check accessories from Pottery Barn, and decided to keep the rest of my decorations ...
Black Friday: The Gift Guide
Here it is, friends... THE biggest shopping day of the year, so they say. I've never been a fan of the day-after-Thanksgiving early morning rush- I'm a small business Saturday girl, myself, if I shop this close to the holidays at all. Still, "Black Friday" seems to be a national ...
The Thanksgiving Table
Friends, today we are on the road (I'm writing on my laptop while tethered to the internet coming from my phone, which is being charged by my car... Ah, technology!) headed North to Cleveland for the Thanksgiving holiday. Despite not being in our own home for the long weekend, I still ...

On Thanksgiving, 2016
It's no secret that Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. Regardless of my birthday on the 4th of July and the Derby (which is DEFINITELY considered a holiday for those of us in Louisville), it's Thanksgiving that always gives me the warm fuzzies. There's no underlying motive- no pressure ...
I See Red: Christmas, 2015
Merry Christmas, sweet readers! Bryan and I are staying here in Louisville this season and playing host to my family for dinner tomorrow. While it's a small celebration, I- per usual- pulled out all the stops. Here are a few glimpses into our home, before the wrapping paper comes off, and ...
Easter, 2015
The Easter holiday always passes by too quickly. I love the welcome of Spring, the promise of a sweet, glazed ham, flowers on the patio. This year, we were joined by my parents and our Mississippi family (a couple who moved here a couple years ago from the south and have become very best friends), ...
