Happy Friday! I am ready to get the party started today: I’m headed into the city to hear Thomas O’Brien speak at the Merchandise Mart as part of the International Antiques Fair. The topic? his design philosophy + his gorgeous new book. I’m all ears. The weather is cooperating, too (possibly 80?), so let’s get [...]
Hello, Friday! So glad you’re here, and here’s hoping this weekend is a bit less drama filled than last weekend. I’d like to do nothing more than watch “our” robin sit on its nest. (In my opinion, the maple tree in our backyard is the perfect location to raise baby robins.)

Happy Spring! We’ve had a spate of warm days, so much so that I have decreed 2010 the year of the magnolia. No snow, no frost, no driving rain or windstorm to ruin the show. May I add that the blossoms smell heavenly? Such a treat. As far as I’m concerned this can go on [...]

Happy Friday! So glad to have one more day of warm temps before it’s back to reality. (I’ve even heard the s**w word bandied about for Sunday.) In the spirit of making the most of the weekend, let’s get on with the Five:

Happy Friday! I am pleased to report that Chicago’s snow is gone! (Well, it’s not completely gone. There are dribs and drabs left over from shoveling’s piles and perhaps a wee bit in the shady spots, but let’s call it gone, okay?) In celebration of the warmer temps, I cut a bunch of pussy willow [...]
