It’s the end of lamb week and we are giving away this adorbs little lamb pillow. It’s our way of saying thank you for following/reading AND we can get another prop out of the prop room. All you have to do to win is leave a comment. Yep, it’s that easy! We’ll choose a winner by Mother’s Day…promise.
We all know the pleasures of eating strawberries and some extol their aphrodisiacal properties, but none so well as Madame Tallien. Born to the aristocracy, given six names, and raised by nuns, this strawberry lover survived a march to the guillotine, bearing the fruit (ten) of multiple lovers and husbands (including the notoriously seedy and filthy Napoleon Bonaparte), several stints in prison and all of the great political and social shifts of the late 1700s. A style maven and risk-taker throughout her life, she insisted on bathing solely in the cure-all juice of strawberries.
With coffee being this weeks muse, I thought what could be more appropriate than featuring my newly shellac’d nails adorned with my usual amount of piled on rings drinking my one daily addiction…coffee. Adding as many rings as possible to my fingers is just as much a morning routine as brushing my teeth and pouring my first cup.
Food is our trigger to all design. Its color may inform our fashion. It’s texture may inform our artwork. Its shape may inform our interiors and its flavor will always inform our table. This week our inspiration is coffee. Bright, baggy, buttery, bready, bitter and baked. Cool beans roasted by cool people. Enjoy a cup or two or twelve with us. We’ll see you in the unisex bathroom line.
