Read almost any organization blog, or follow any fashion blogger, and chances are you'll hear about this thing called a capsule wardrobe. Originally coined as a term in London by shop owner Susie Faux, the "capsule wardrobe" idea has grown to be a trendy thing itself, almost defeating the ...
Setting the Table for July 4th
I'm fortunate enough to have a cool birthday- the song "Born on the 4th of July" always had meaning in my house, and the holiday birthday has built in me a serious love of fireworks. Over and over I heard that the entire country celebrates with me. More often than not, I'd have those ...
Bellaire Update
If you're following along on my Snapchat (@joycekduncan), you've seen that as of today, I have walls in the Bellaire house!
While the sheetrock still needs to be re-mudded and sanded, I can see the place beginning to take shape. The deep, blood red walls that were in the dining area and ...
Summer Bedding
Readers, I'm not sure where you join me from. Some months, I see several logging in from Chicago, Cleveland, San Franciso, and, for some reason, Brazil, and while I'm sure that our climates don't always mirror each other, I know that some of you- like me- hate to be too warm on summer nights. ...
On Home

Starburst
Almost inevitably, when I see a home that’s been meticulously staged, photographed well, and quickly sold, somewhere inside is a funky starburst mirror. In no way do I believe that these statement-making pieces have a sort of home-selling magic, but I do find that they offer a little taste of ...
Summer Reading
In 2015, I was introduced to Goodreads. Some refer to the app and website as Netflix for books, and it really is- suggestions based on what you've read and how you've rated past reads, a peek into what lies on your friends' bookshelves... I really love their Reading Challenge. Each ...
Pecan and Molasses Bundt Cake
I love the flavor of molasses. That dark, smokey almost-honey harkens memories of sitting at my grandparents’ breakfast table on Sunday mornings. My grandpa would mix his Sorghum- he pronounced it SARgum- with butter to spread on his breakfast biscuits, and it seemed like the smell would fill ...
