Happy Friday! I'm signing off a little early because we're jumping in the car for a road trip with the in-laws. A change of scenery will be lovely as it's been a jam-packed week:
- I shared my recipe for foolproof flourless chocolate cakes at Elizabeth Anne Designs Living.
- I drooled over my picks for Room of the Day at Bloomacious.
- I revealed a few of my style faves at the fabulous new online magazine Honeysuckle Life.
- I interviewed Nate Berkus and hosted my best giveaway ever; you can still enter to win throw pillows from Nate's collection!
And I'm not the only one who's been busy...
- Rachel at Heart of Light made an adorable ruffled headband.
- Katy at Katy Elliot spotted the most stunning wallpaper from Sweden.
- Rhon at Blue Creek Home refused to pay $165 for a trash can, and I love what she did instead!
- Jenny at My Favorite and My Best introduced me to an alternative for that tired, overused phrase 'pops of color'--it's all about 'bright moments' now!
- Photographer Kari Herer detailed the process behind her breathtaking new collection of magnolia photos.
- A Life More Fabulous shared the lush exotic home of Micheline Paquette.
- Design*Sponge featured an awesome before and after steamer trunk from Nikki at Chic Maps!
- Erin at Reading My Tea Leaves got me wondering: why live indoors when nature has its own architecture?
Have a beautiful weekend everyone!

In the past few weeks the local papers have been covering the closing of several restaurants. Most recently, Great Bay announced it’s shutting its doors. The last time I ate there, the cavernous room seemed eerily empty. Sure, there were other diners, but nowhere near a full house. And when I go to Open Table to peruse restaurants for an evening out, invariably they have the coveted 7saaa:00p.m. table available.
