The Weather in South Carolina

This vacation has been great so far, regardless of whatever weather is happening, but we have seem some pretty wild extremes in the past few days. Driving down on Saturday morning, we could tell that we were in for at least a day or two...

Smitten with: Ann-Marie Loves Paper

I love rubber stamps. I love the variations in ink and how every time you use the same stamp, it can look completely different. Plus, it just feels so official when you get to put a stamp on something! The Etsy shop Ann-Marie Loves Paper has...

Inspiration: Modern Tropical

Well, sometimes days just slip past you. I didn’t intend on skipping a post Monday but we spent all weekend working on our chair for the Cleveland Home + Garden Show (LOVING how it’s turning out). We also ordered the floor for our new kitchen, yay! We’ll...

Our urban cottage bathroom: the plans

Yesterday I showed you the layout of our second-floor master bath, and you could probably see that we’re dealing with quite a few challenges. First, the room is only about 100 by 80 inches, which is really small. Second, there’s a pretty large window that...

Columbus Country Living Fair

Yesterday I drove down to Columbus for the Country Living Fair, which is an enormous annual festival of crafts and antiques, and I had the BEST time. I came home with a few more things than I was planning on… but that’s what it’s all...

Burrito Mondays: Ohio City Burrito

It should come as no surprise to anyone that I am a burrito addict. Certifiably. A few weeks ago, I started a little thing called “Burrito Mondays.” Kerry often can’t make it home from work on Monday nights for “lunch,” and I didn’t feel like...
