I just love these super-elegant calligraphed notecards by Della Carta. You can get a set of 10 cards with your name printed in black calligraphy (and 10 envelopes with your return address) for $19.95 right here. Simply perfect. Kathryn Podorsky’s penmanship is to die for.

I am thinking this cookbook could become my new favorite. Breakfast food is the best. (How gorgeous is the cover?)

I had been meaning to check out Birchwood Kitchen all summer, and so it was serendipity when we went to pick up the kitchen ceiling paint and saw it just a couple of doors away.
