Things I Love

Just a short list to wrap up the week.

1. Jackie found this great article about people who live in blue houses. I can tell you on my end that NOT all of it is true. I'd love an Audi, thank you very much. But I do love my blue house. I especially love this quote:
"In addition, the average "blue" homeowner is in a long-term relationship and has two children and four close friends."
2. Alphabet plates. Yup. Enough said. So cute.
3. A perfect solution to my tiny kitchen and storage issue. Watch the video and you will see the table extension can slide and be hidden away! My house is only 950 square feet and everything needs to pull double duty. I know the price tag is steep but ... here to dreaming.
4. Speaking of kitchen. I love Ikea's kitchen planner. Hubby keeps telling me that this spring we can overhaul the kitchen. We will see!
5. I successfully baked my first loaf of bread and ate it all myself! But here is the book that I used. I can tell you that I don't own this book. The library is amazing. I love the idea of artisan bread and I am impressed with a some of the other recipes. Not tons of pictures in this book and a surprising amount of copy for a cook book, but great picture by picture guide on how to make the basic loaf. And you build from there.
6. I love how my baby is growing every day. He just keeps me totally amazed.

Things We Love

Happy Friday! This morning Jackie and I are together so our lists are combined but we hope to have Lauren's List and Jackie's List of things we love from the week. Remember there will be a lot of dreaming happening on these lists.

Here's a short list of things that are making us smile this morning...
















  1. Kids in cozy jammies reading "I Like it When".
  2. We love that minted.com came out with their new float + peace calendars yesterday. Thinking Christmas presents!
  3. Since our first dinner party was so much fun, we are doing another dinner party for a friends birthday Saturday night. Happy Birthday Heather!
  4. We indulged in a French Green Clay mask, today with egg yolk and olive oil. Faces feel AMAZING!
  5. This Posh Peasant Tee is sooooo Jackie! And she would like it BEFORE she wins the lottery. Hint hint.
  6. Lauren dreams of this Isabella Sterling Silver ring. Her wedding ring still doesn't fit after baby and it would be a great treat! Like HUGE treat.
  7. We love, Love LOVE homemade Christmas gifts! We are thinking this and this. Ooooh, and maybe this too!
See you Monday...
