Happy Halloween!
Campbell and Wallace wanted to say Happy Halloween… Have a great day!
This week I am loving…
The new hand towel in my bathroom Made this great cold brown rice salad with artichokes, walnuts, parsley and feta. A splash of olive oil and a fresh lemon Concord grapes. I love the color and the taste is sublime Reading the classic Franny and Zooey by Salinger and the catching up on the Sunday […]
Random Labor Day Musings….and a Giveaway
When I think of Labor Day the first thing that comes to my mind is going back to school. It is the end of summer – almost the kick off to fall. This summer, as with every summer, many clients have been busy with activities for their kids and exotic summer getaways. After Labor Day, […]

San Francisco Decorator Showcase
It’s that time of year again for the San Francisco Decorator Showcase. How was it just a year ago that I designed the dining room? Time flies…as the saying goes. I was able to get a sneak peek this week and I was quite impressed with all of the designs, work and creativity that was put […]
Happy Birthday!
Happy 19th Birthday to Campbell and Wallace! I never thought that two white fur balls could bring so much joy into my life. Such personality and love that they offer every day. Today is their 19th birthday (yes you read that correctly). Still so much energy and spunk in them. Campbell loves sleeping and snuggling. […]
