Each year, as we head to our favorite vacation spot, we make a first stop to see some friends in the Pasadena area. Our first year out, we and our friends were sitting down for a meal discussing a song that we'd heard that we thought was quintessentially vacation-like. None of us could place the ...
A Love Letter to Lake Michigan
Each summer, as we venture North to Chicago, I can feel my heartbeat a little stronger. As soon as I glimpse that first sight of the skyline from the Dan Ryan when we drive in, I feel like I'm home. Each morning, stuck on Louisville time, I wake up in the 5 o'clock hour, and make my way the block ...
To be Continued…
It doesn't go without notice that I post a whole lot of photos showing these perfect, put-together spaces. I always think of the term "curated" when it comes to do with what one posts on any sort of social media. Whether we're talking about a platform like this one, color-coordinated IG grids, or ...
Kentucky Derby: 100 Days Out
Sweet readers, I find myself once again staring at the calendar and seeing the Derby only a short 100 days away! As we venture into the third post-Covid Derby year, traditions have started to change a bit. I've always heard that the one thing that remains constant is change, so... Here we are! ...

Coronado Update: Exterior Reveal, Part 1
When we first stumbled upon our house, she wasn't exactly the ugliest house on the block, but you could tell she'd been through it. There was a Sycamore in the front yard 4 feet through the middle if it was an inch. It's roots had jacked up pieces of the concrete driveway. The front doors and ...
An Argument for the Dinner Party
Kentucky had what was considered to be a relatively mild summer. Only one or two weeks did the temperatures creep above the mid-80's, and humidity generally went by the wayside. Happy to avoid the usually swamp-like conditions we have July through September, Bryan and I spent a lot of our weekend ...
First Week of Spring: A Tabletop
I'm not one to moan and complain about cooler weather. Personally, I'm all for it. I love the cool breezes that make me bundle up in overcoats and enormous scarves. I like knowing it's cold out while I'm inside by a fire, with jammies on and Bourbon in hand. I love the snow. What we get of it, ...
