If you know me, you know I have an addiction to dinner wear and Alyson Fox. So when I saw these lovely little things I just had to post them..now I'm left wondering what set to get.
Ok so I'm back but that doesn't mean I can get this song out of my head. Thanks to my
You can download the ep for free here, oh and here's a little video for ya too!
My fella and I are going on a much needed vacation to Cape Cod for a week, where we'll hopefully overload on sun and lobster, and maybe a little family. Au revoir!
Saturday's at the Farmers Market
Last Saturday I managed to convince Justin to bring his camera to the farmers market, so after a long hiatus here's another little snippet of our Saturday. This week the big harvest seemed to be heirloom tomatoes and squash, so thats what we got. As always the fish was really fresh, the round green summer squash was loaded with flavor, oh and omg the "sweet peppers" (those twisty ones) were super amazing grilled with a little olive oil and sea salt. Sorry no pics of the dinner, we ate it up too fast!
Saw this day bed the other day and can't stop dreaming of making one of my own. Now if I only had a place to put one.
Ever go thrifting and something is just a bit too expensive (and you're with your boyfriend who thinks you buy way too much vintage furniture anyway) so you decide to leave it there and think about it and then when you go back its gone and you realize how amazing it was? Yeah me too...What super sucks is this has happened to me the past two times first was this "De La Tour" type chair only it was lower and I'm sure it was original, I could just picture it with a sheep skin in the bedroom, then was this^ lamp (pictured on the checkered side table, the bf wasn't there for this one) I knew it was awesome but the wiring made me a little uneasy. What a bummer. Either way lessons learned: 1. don't bring the boyfriend shopping because you know he'll be practical and who needs that, 2. go with your gut and get it, you can always sell it later.
I love the art we have in the bedroom but they're not, how do you say, relaxing. I'm now on the look out for something more serene, like the latest work by Ori Gersht. While I know I can't have these, maybe I can swap mine out for some older works...
Mmmm...summer time lunch. Grilled mahi mahi burger (new from Trader Joe's and pretty darn good) wasabi mayo, arugula from my garden and avocado, grilled onion, and grilled corn fresh from the farmer's market. Speaking of which I will be doing a Saturdays at the Farmers Market post from last week as soon as the mister takes the pics off his fancy camera.
The perfect light weight top(s) for summer! Here's some of the easy breezy things I picked up at the James Perse sample sale a few weeks ago and haven't stopped wearing since.
I've been really bad at posting food and recipes lately because I really haven't been making anything that amazing. It's pretty much Justin on the grill most nights which is a-o-fine with me!
Anywho that being said I had to make a dish for a vegetarian birthday/housewarming party this weekend and decided to experiment with quinoa. The end result: quinoa with grilled asparagus, grilled red onion and heirloom tomato with a dijon vinaigrette.
