good morning, chickens! the baton has been passed from
ashley-nicole and today it is my turn to share 'what home means to me'. been wondering what that 'pin it forward' badge is all about over there? well i am lucky enough to be part of a project conceived by the lovely victoria at
sfgirlbybay and the folks at
pinterest, the online software that let's you bookmark your favorite images and catalog them--it. is. awesome. so let's get this party started. these are the things i dream about...
lots of light, a big family table and a place of my own to work, make things and dream.
a big oak tree to sit under with family and friends, some great food and drink and beautiful flowers (that i don't have to take care of).
a little kitchen with open shelves, a vintage stove and, of course, lots of green.
a dutch door and possibly a cow (but not sidney greenstreet).
my boys (big and small).
there is of course more. and i am lucky enough to have many of these things already. the truth is home is where i keep my heart. things are just things, but those 3 boys are what home really means to me (sappy, huh?). if you want more, you can check out my pin board
here--adding stuff all the time. and get yourself a pin board, you will love it.
now it's time for me to pass the baton to
justnoey for tomorrow's installment. don't miss it! and be sure to enjoy your day(:
i don't know about you, but i already feel like i need a vacation from my summer vacation. and you know i love me some hamptons. how about his place? only $45,000 for the month of july. come on, we'd only need like 18 families to go in on it to make it affordable. some of us might have to pitch tents in the yard, though. oh well, it's fun to dream. in my dream, we'd spend mornings at the farm stand, then go into town and stalk barefoot contessa, followed by an afternoon poolside before cocktails and a clambake on the beach. care to join me?
