Espana

I was way into this show on Spain. I like how four different people came together and showed us all about the culture and history of Spain.

Carmen Dell'Orefice

 

Veteran model Carmen, gives us all hope for the future.  She has convinced me that when the time comes, my hair will be elegant in white.

february knits

Every winter i feel the need to break out the knitting needles.  This year has been all about knitting on round needles, and making turtleneck scarves.  I have a short list of requests, so my hands will be busy for the next few months. 

treasures in the form of glass

This is a scene from the kitchen.  Loving this flour jar with the chalkboard label.  You never have to be surprised about what ingredients you are using.  Next to that is a pretty water bottle kept after a night out pali house.  Its so great that a few of todays companies still keep that antique glass look that so many people still love. Add some dried roses, and it makes a pretty arrangement.

Instead of Flowers

Some friends came over for dinner on Saturday night.  Instead of the usual flowers or a bottle of wine they brought us home grown vegetables and herbs.  A really cool gift.  This meal is what became of their gift.

We are big fans of the split toe shoe.  There are two pairs in circulation in our family.  What do you think vulgar or fashion forward?
