Home…

our happy place.  Traditions, warmth and welcome.

Home is a feeling. It radiates fond memories of countless holidays, birthdays, milestone celebrations and after school projects.  It’s also simply seeing the beauty in the everyday.  It’s where your stories are written, the place where you belong.

Each season brings with it celebrations, holidays, weather – all playing a vital role as to how we live and play.  So many can relate to the feeling of cold weather coming upon us in Autumn.  Long cooked winter meals, football and a crackling hearth.  Shortened days, the rustle of leaves, the scent of candles burning inside a jack-o-lantern.  The sounds, smells and tastes that all come together to create a feeling.  This is your home, your good life.

I would like to share with you my ways to make each day a celebration, make the ordinary extraordinary, and how to be organized and efficient and enjoy living for the moment.

I extend my invitation to you to come inside and experience home…Welcome!


Month to Month Inspiration

August 2017

I may have mentioned this before, but I’ve never been a big fan of August and sadly I believe it is a result of the hurry-up marketing to get to the next season that I always feel.  The mad dash to get out the “back to school” supplies while we are still deep into enjoying our summers.  I know there is a strategy for the retailers, but the thought of it all coming to an end all too soon is something I’d rather not have to deal with every time I step into a store or turn on the TV.  On the brighter side, August is when our vegetable gardens come into fruition, tomatoes aplenty as well as all the other fresh produce we’ve been nurturing and waiting for all summer.  There is such a feeling of triumph and satisfaction when we serve a dish at the table made with our own home grown goods.  Here in the northeast, corn is at it’s peak and absolutely delicious.  August is a month to slow down and take in the last and best of everything that summer offers, long evenings by a fire pit, lazy afternoons on a raft on a lake, cook outs and sleep overs.  Summer is still in full swing and won’t be over until it’s over!
