After almost completely convincing myself that I wouldn’t make it in the Washington DC Design House, (I tend to do that when it gets down to the wire & I get really nervous) I got a call today from one of the Design House Committee members letting me know I’d been accepted. I was kind of […]
January 31, 2011We’ve been snowed in today with no electricity and I’m really glad we kept our wood-burning stove: The power went out last night & we sleep in a pretty cool house so we didn’t really notice it until this morning.

(Even things like salami or soup for breakfast. ) I’ve been making this chickpea salad lately and I love it so much I wanted to share. It’s so […]
January 20, 2011When designing a room- whether it’s for myself or for someone else- I’ve realized that I need to be excited about it to do it well. That’s just how it is. I might not be excited about all projects at the get-go (ie my laundry room) but once I find something to do to the room or […]
January 17, 2011I love waking up to fresh snow. We got a little bit here and my husband, a high school English teacher, has a two-hour delay so we were able to chill for a bit before starting the day. My favorite part of our bedroom is our view of the back yard. On mornings like this […]
