Is this Kismet?

I was just about to post this amazing picture of the inside of a bedroom in Kate & Andy Spade's home (my obsession is mounting) from Apartment Therapy (via outofhabit) because of my love for the use of grey and yellow (not to mention the amazing artwork and chair)


When what appears in my inbox but a photograph from Mrs. Megan with the exact same love in mind from the Schumacher catalog:



Guess what Macy's, your terrible handling of my online shopping order (placed three weeks ago with still no sign of arrival) has lead me to re-evaluate my bedding choices... and guess what I won't be ordering from you and yes it will involve grey and yellow.  Pow!


The Eiffel Tower is Being Attacked By Plushies!

Megs sent us one and only one photograph from her recent trip to Paris...


We couldn't have said it any better ourselves!

I am gnawing the screen right now

Thanks to good eggs.  I have stumbled upon this awesome website, Honest Fare, for food right up my alley and the photographs are amazing!  Once my oven is fixed (hello, we pay a maintenance fee for a reason!) I am going to start up by making this amazing looking Strawberry Poppy Seed muffins for B and Owen...


I'll be sure to let you know how the results go... and on the next rainy day... Friday, perhaps, I'm going to cook up some of this amazing looking Corn and Potato chowder... SLURP!!!

Pretty Petal-Luscious!

I have always been fascinated by floral design.  The beauty of flowers is always awe-inspiring and some people just have an eye for how to put them together.


This arrangement is so beautiful it looks like a dutch painting.  Click through for a wonderful set of instructions from Janie Medley of jmflora to create your own spring arrangement via Design*Sponge (via seenandsaid)



Simply Gorgeous!

Grey Glorious Gray

So, Megan filled me in on a little interior painting project (or rather mishap) where she attempted to paint one of the rooms in her new house grey... when she woke up in the morning the gray had actually dried baby blue!  That is a blue boo!  Anyway, she bought new paint this afternoon and as a lil bit of inspiration I wanted to show her this outfit I saw today. (via out of habit via coco+kelley) what is the difference between grey and gray??

Seal of Approval


Ok, I in no way need another tool in my craft box and for that matter I don't ever write letters that would need to be sealed by wax.

But that being said how absolutely awesome is this and how awesome would it be if owned a wood burning tool and could make myself my own wax seal.  I would be sealing up everything all day.  Melting wax like it was my job.  But again I don't have or need a wood burning tool... or do I?

Did Someone Say Puddin' Pops?

Just looking at the pictures of the Zoku's bright fruity ice pops makes me salivate slightly.  I am dying to have this Zoku pop maker.
Each day as I bring the Big O out to the playground the Mr. Frosty music comes ding a linging up and I immediately begin craving a strawberry shortcake ice cream treat.  I always try and by the more "healthy" fruit pops at the grocery store, but my problem is the seeds.  I hate seeds in things that I think should be smooth a.k.a in smoothies or yogurt or fruit pops!  So, I immediately thought that I could maybe make some kind of "healthy" pop with this thing minus the seeds.  I also think that I could eat a chocolate pudding pop every night and be happy**!!
