Christmas in Europe


While everyone in the US is gearing up for Thanksgiving, Europe is in full Christmas mode.  The decorations in Paris were particularly beautiful and I look forward to seeing more when I go back on Friday.  Ladurée on rue Bonaparte above just finished their decorations. I just arrived in London today and what I've seen so far seems a bit flashier.  But in both cases, it has me very excited for the holiday season and to go to the flower market when I get home.

Chic Wedding Inspiration

The idea of planning a big expensive wedding gives me hives.  But I also don't want to get married at City Hall which is why I love finding chic and elegant weddings for inspiration. Interior designer Asia Baker's Oyster Bay wedding featured on Vogue is one that's definitely going in my file for future reference. The reception was held at her family's home which lends a lovely personal touch. For more photos and the full story, click here

Bon weekend!

Springtime in New York

Sometimes I get annoyed with bloggers who post all their instragram photos on their blog since most of the time I've already seen them.  I try not to do it myself but I know some of you don't follow me and therefore you are missing out on my photos of springtime in New York.  It really is one of the most magical times when everything comes alive, even the residents.  Enjoy!

Everything and the Kitchen Sink

I started a new kitchen folder recently which then expanded to include butler's pantries and open shelved storage.  Which then expanded to include a few shots of food and greenery and flowers.  It's an everything and the kitchen sink post literally and figuratively.  It also seemed fitting to post it now as many will be sitting down to Passover and Easter meals with their families.  Since I celebrate Easter, I didn't realize how much cleaning must be done in preparation for Passover.  Jews must remove all traces of leaven or chametz which "is defined as the result of grain that ferments" from their kitchen and home. I feel like I could stand to remove all leaven from my life too after all the bread I ate this weekend and do some spring cleaning of my own. Happy holidays to all who are celebrating this week.
