Right Now I'm...


feeling: warm! 67 degrees today!


reading: my new cookbook


redecorating: my mantel. I think I need more candles in there...and more dried hydrangeas.  Look at that sun shining!!


cooking: dinner last night...maple crusted roast pork tenderloin with apples, sweet potatoes and roasted veggies...leftovers tonight- cubano sandwiches. I'm all about cook once, eat twice. 




wearing: spring clothes! But I know not to put away the winter coat yet. (the only full length mirror is in Stephen's room :)

watching: this video from my all time favorite decorator..Tracy Porter. I know I've mentioned her before.  
Tracy inspires me in decorating, fashion, cooking, entertaining..and today she is having a giveaway of all  her books. I have a few of her books and she's told us she is coming out with another one!  She recently moved her business and family from Wisconsin to Santa Barbara...I can't bare the thought of her not in that house anymore! You can go back and look at her old videos and see what I mean. Love that Tracy!



Looking forward to a fun weekend!

  2. Love your coat...absolutely adorable! I tried a bright orange one on at Marshall's two weeks ago...it screamed Spring. I think I need to go back and get it. :) Love the feel of your mantle. Could you add some clay pots upside down, and put the pillar candles on them? I wish I had a fireplace to decorate...love my woodstove, but it is kind of boring to decorate. ;) I need to find that cookbook...looks great. Have a super weekend Pam!

  4. Will you come cook for me for a week? And teach me how to do it? That looks so fantastic.
    And your outfit--girl, looking good. Have a great weekend.
    And yes, more candles. How do you get Griffy to leave them alone?

I alos love how you decorate your light fixture for all the holidays. Your mantle looks so springy too. I have only managed to get 2 bags out of 40 also, but this week I hope to add a few more.

  11. I've never seen a fireplace like that with two openings. Is one for wood storage? I'm also intrigued by your new cookbook. I've been trying to eat healthier. Any good recipes you're loving in there?

    And, how cute are you in that coat?!?! Love it!
