Olives by DC Morale – a New York artist with some cool paintings! There is something familiar and reminiscent in her still life subjects. I remember these olives from childhood. My mom would buy them. I wasn’t an olive eater, but I did think they were cool.
It comes as no surprise what a hit house plans are. Y’all love them! It’s always fun to imagine a new space, how it would work for you, what you like, what you wish could be a little different. The wonderful people at Lake & Land Studio will work with you to make your dream a reality. They are available to make changes to plans, which is so exciting. It doesn’t mean these plans NEED a change, it’s all about what you like and what is important to you. It’s always good to know that you have options!
Heavenly. Yes, it’s the perfect description of this Strawberry Summer Cake. I am not a fan of cake, but my husband is. The amount of sugar and fat that goes into a cake and then again into the frosting is more than I feel comfortable making unless it’s a rare occasion. This cake does not need frosting. A tiny bit of whipped cream or a small scoop of vanilla ice cream is at most all it needs!

Wonderful, right? I bet you’re smiling… I sure am! I mean, truly, how can you do anything but after seeing something so wonderful? And… what a wonderful setting! Beautiful shapes, fabulous colors, what a treat!
Botany Bay Plantation Wildlife Management Area – located on Edisto Island, SC is a place that looks like it’s back in time. Unspoiled beaches and a wildlife sanctuary that is home to so many creatures.
Ahhh, a good book, is there anything like it? Especially during trying times like we’ve seen in 2020. Reading is the great escape, you can travel to faraway lands from the comfort of your chair with an iced tea in your hand. #winwin
Scenic doesn’t even begin to describe Botany Bay Plantation Wildlife Management Area, located in Edisto, South Carolina. If I were an animal of any kind, I would want to live in this oasis. Over 46,000 acres and it’s like time has stood still. The beauty is breathtaking and the beach (which we skipped this trip) is jaw dropping.
Doesn’t this house have LOADS of charm? This is a small plan, but a GREAT one! I LOVE a screened porch, and this plan gives you options. There is a front porch, but there is also a side screened porch that you can enter from the bedroom. Think how nice this would be when the weather is fabulous and you can leave your door open to the porch for fresh air! #nothingbetter I love the lines of this house!
Ange is an Irish artist living in Brighton (England). I absolutely love everything about her work. It was such fun to go through her paintings. What an eye she’s got!

This blog is all about sharing the things I love with you. Namely ART (as well as artists and art events), FOOD (recipes, restaurants, products I’ve tried and love) and anything HOME related whether it be furniture, lighting, etc.
Is there anything better than a great grilled sandwich? The answer is “no” when you really need something different. I am a creature of habit. So most days I have an apple, a few tablespoons of peanuts, sometimes a few Wheat Thins, some grapes… then later a small amount of popcorn. It works well for me but sometimes you just really want a lunch. Not a puny lunch, but a real LUNCH. Haha… this is where this comes in. I made a batch of roasted corn salad the other day and it was enough for three meals for us. This salad is out of control good. My absolute hands-down-favorite!
