Happy hump day!

It’s the middle of the week and

I have to admit,

I’ve been a little bit of a lazy bones this week.

But I wanted to stop in today

and share

some of my favorite things from the week, so far…

How about this amazing kitchen I

 spotted in the latest issue of Traditional Home?

I love every single element about this kitchen...

But seriously... 

Edible flowers look like they'll be all the rage

this spring and summer!

And why not?

Remember we feast with our eyes first!

Pretty up a salad or some delicate tea sandwiches with

your favorite edible blossoms.

Among my faves are

pansies, dandelions, peonies,

lavender, violets, borage and roses.

The best purchase 

I made all year was a set of these

Riviera side chairs from Serena & Lily.

They are really comfortable, and oh, so cute!

Well, I splurged a little

and bought four more today

that I’m using out on my patio for

summer alfresco dining.

That's what one more thing to 

love about these chairs...

the option of bringing them indoors 

or out.

New to the blog shop

are these adorable mother’s day coffee mugs,

and “just for y’all” I’m offering 20% off until Sunday,

if you’re interested.

I already have one reserved for my mom!

Just click here.

Is anyone else a little obsessed with the 
TV series Feud: Bette and Joan on FX Sunday nights ?

Feud highlights

the professional and personal rivalry

between Bette Davis and Joan Crawford

during and after the filming of their 1962 film

“What Ever Happened to Baby Jane”.

Brilliantly portrayed by 
Jessica Lange (as Joan Crawford)
 and Susan Sarandon (as Bette Davis),

Feud also features lots of other notable actors 
like Catherine Zeta-Jones, Kathy Bates,

Stanley Tucci and Sarah Paulson.

If you love classic Hollywood films and stars,

make sure you check this out…

it’s really juicy!
