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.

Nashville: the Plantations, the Art
Two weeks ago, I made the few-hour road trip to Nashville, Tennessee to meet up with 19 other Speed Art Museum members, curators, and directors, ready to spend the next couple of days on a whirlwind tour in and around the city. Admittedly, I've been a lover of Nashville since my teens, making the ...
Merci
I'm a firm believer that there is always cause to write a thank you note. I realize that hand-written letters aren't as popular as they once were, but you can ask anyone around me, and you'll hear that I'm still a cheerleader for the note. Whether it's an overly formal invite to a girl's night in, ...
On Skincare
I’ve prided myself since high school on taking good care of my skin. I’ve always been pretty smooth, I never had major acne or scarring on my face (other than a few leftover from the third bout of chicken pox when I was 13), and I’ve always been a huge believer of Dove body wash. But, the older ...
A Derby Weekend Recap
Every May, it seems as if Derby weekend both lasts for a month and passes by in a heartbeat. Missing last year was enough for me to forget how much more alive our city becomes in just the few days prior. Despite the cleaning of our streets, the KDF Marathon, the balloon race, and Thunder Over ...
Sorry I’m Away…
Sweet friends, my sincerest apologies for the lack of a "real" post today, but Derby weekend is upon us here in Louisville, and your girl's feet hurt and her purse is empty, but her tank is full. We are rallying, grabbing a big breakfast, and partying on!
Go, Baby, Go!
