Happy Thanksgiving, dear friends! I hope you’re having a lovely time, wherever you are! We’ve been having some peaceful days sharing our home with friends, and have dived deep into the culinary arts, experimenting with some fresh takes on traditional recipes. There’s a chocolate pie waiting to be served, roasted carrots and Brussels sprouts and  mushrooms, and of course, the star of today’s show – the bird. And while the pie sets, I sneaked in here to wish you all a beautiful holiday, and to share some great Black Friday deals to keep an eye on.

Happy Sunday, dear friends! I hope you’ve had a joyous and relaxing weekend!  It’s been a busy one for us, with an interesting mix of work and play. We’ve had an overnight visit from a dear friend, and I’ve had the pleasure to prepare and observe our hard-working family room being used as a guest bedroom. I love sharing our house – be it sleepovers, dinner parties or visits from our (many) four-legged friends. Having friends over somehow, breaking the laws of physics, makes our tiny house feel larger, more useful, and certainly happier. Laughter and good times are design essentials.

A glimpse of the family room, with the last of this year’s anemones.

Happy (almost) Halloween, dear friends! Hope you have a fun evening of trick-or-treating planned! We’re heading out in just a bit, as soon as I find my misplaced witchy hat. There’s a big group of neighborhood kids (and their parents) who like walking together and it’s one of my favorite things about our little neighborhood. Here are this week’s finds, including deer in our backyard and a bunch of other stuff, books and warm throws, most of it basic necessities for a cozy fall evening at home. Enjoy!
