We forgot to write a Friday Favorites post last week, but there’s a few things we’re loving this week that we wanted to share on this lazy three-day weekend. Seriously, shouldn’t every weekend be three days? Kerry’s favorites: 1. Sister Fidelma mysteries by Peter Tremayne My mother was...
Last week we took a family trip up to our cabin just outside of Traverse City in northern Michigan. It’s the most perfect place to be in the fall, and despite the less-than-perfect weather (50s! Rain! We had to go out and buy jackets!), we...
Welcome to our first entry in a series of living through a kitchen renovation. Our contractor told us that we have a 5 week renovation, and he might possibly be able to get it done in 4. We thought it’d be nice to focus on...
Yesterday was 60 degrees. In Cleveland. In January. 60 degrees! How can you not start to think about Spring and flowers and pretty dresses in weather like that? And doesn’t this gorgeous flowery dress just epitomize Spring for you? Apparently the bride made it herself, which makes...

When we moved our laundry up from our basement to our pantry, everything was pretty awesome. But we also didn’t want just a washer and dryer at the end of the pantry, looking like we just plopped it there without any thought (like this). So...
