Beginning August 1, Mr. Man and I made the decision to start eating at home more... a lot more. Unabashedly, being a childless couple that makes a decent living, we generally eat out almost every day. Almost every meal. Not only was the restaurant/bar bill daunting, but daily meals filled with ...
Come On In
I'm a huge believer in the power and prettiness of a front door wreath. My mother hated them- saying they reminded her of funerals. My grandmother went overboard in the days of crafting, having everything from ribbons to tiny fake pumpkins woven into a vine wreath base. I tend to lean a little ...
Vegas Musings
As we have every summer for several years now, we found ourselves in Las Vegas in the middle of summer for the man's work. We're both fortunate to have careers that bring us in contact with folks from all different backgrounds, and- in his case- it's neat that sometimes "work" means standing ...
New listing! 3304 Hillvale Road
With the same owner since 1967, love and immaculate care (the roof is only 5 years old) are readily shown in this tri-level off of Brownsboro Road. 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a huge, gorgeous and green yard make this space perfect for a family of any size.
Conveniently located near the Gene ...
Summer Lights
It's been a couple of years now since we made any changes to our bedroom. The last time anything shifted in here was the summer of 2017 when we purchased Parachute Home's linen bedding for warmer months. I'm still a huge fan. Still, seeing as there have always been a couple of things that bugged ...
Dinner at Walton Street
A couple of years ago, while in Chicago in the Spring, we managed to get ourselves squeezed into Gemini in Lincoln Park for dinner at their grand reopening, and immediately fell in love. The service and atmosphere were amazing, but consistently outdone by the amazing food. When we got wind that ...
Lunch at Willow Room
Just a block above North Avenue in Chicago's Lincoln Park lies a neat and unassuming yellow brick building. Crisp, black trim circles the first floor facade, and minimal window dressing reads, "Willow Rm" in a slight gold script. This is Willow Room, a happy eatery I've been stalking on Instagram ...
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 ...
On the 4th
We know by now that I'm very much averse to red, white, and blue everything on the 4th. 30-something years of star-spangled birthdays have made me lean towards a more toned-down color combo for my celebrations each year. Whether there's a gorgeous blue and white tablescape or an all-red flower ...
