I am most enthralled with The School of Life’s website. I wish I lived in London so I could attend the Good Design seminar on June 28, led by Alice Rawsthorn. And there are many many more classes and events and holidays that are tempting me. They seem to have designed a curriculum around my interests. So cool! Click here to see what it’s all about and dig in.

I learned about Flair magazine this morning while reading the obituary of its editor, Fleur Cowles. I think I would very much had enjoyed the magazine, published for just one year in the 1950s, and now have my eye on this Best of Flair book. List price of $250, but it’s available for just under $170 at Amazon.

peonies, june 2009 | simple pretty

Spectacular weather ’round these parts on Thursday. School is still in session, and better yet, peonies are busting out all over. I’m hoping to cut a nice big bouquet this morning. Let’s just get to the photos, shall we?

I think that early June just might be my favorite time of year. Remind me of this in mid-September, when I’m saying the exact same thing. Hope your weekend is lovely! See you back here on Monday.
