Statement Centerpiece

I love the crisp, yet intricate style of this table setting from Pottery Barn.  The combination of glass candlesticks, bottles and vases makes such an attractive, yet light-and-airy-feeling centerpiece.  Perfect for transitioning into Fall…..

Father’s Day Dinner

Father’s Day is upon us!  I always have to put a little extra thought into my Father’s Day celebrations – they can’t be as feminine or even as stylized as I would typically do for a party, because the men in my life would tell me “it’s overdone!”  So a casual family dinner is [...]

Lunch at Home with Friends

My social life has definitely changed over the last year….we moved to the suburbs, I work from home, and all of my friends have multiple children.  So a lot of times, we find time to spend together right smack in the middle of the day – for me it’s a much-appreciated, quick [...]
