flower necklace

A friend showed me this necklace from Nest Pretty Things. I love it, we may be trying a DIY soon to make our own version of it.

House Beautiful referenced a similar bathroom as having a "wet room." I think I like this concept.

Special Topics in Calamity Physics

The Wild Things

These were both recommended by a friend. The first she says is one of the best books she has read in the last couple of years.

goose girl

I re-read The Goose Girl this weekend. What a wonderful book, it is a favorite of mine. Although the sequels, in my mind, don't keep the same pace and intrigue as the original, it is a fantastic book. If only all of Shannon Hale's books were on the same level as The Goose Girl and Princess Academy (another favorite)...

travel tuesday: boston, ma

I have been signing up for summer classes and I am so excited. A week in Boston and upstate New York (but mostly Boston) touring colonial and revolutionary history sites will be the main class in my summer schedule.

Some of the highlights include King's Chapel

Mayflower II

I love how many containers this garden uses, it gives me hope for my container garden.
