I Own This

My place has been in a slight transition since the friend that I lived with for over five years moved out to start life with her soon-to-be-husband. So I've been missing a few home essentials... A coffee table, a chair here and there, knives.... And a spice rack. So I bought the above off of Etsy. It was a great price. Post-purchase, I'm thinking it might be a little too over-the-top "shabby chic," but at least it serves its purpose: racking up spices!

I am in need of a new pair of salt and pepper shakers for my dining table.

The possibilities are endless! Here are a few I found ...

PS: If you ever want to waste your time, look at Etsy's selection of handmade salt and pepper shakers... Found this gem.

What I accomplished today:

1. Cleaned kitchen of all stacks of dirty dishes

2. Went on a run (and felt very out-of-breath)

3. Exchanged the wrong size boot for right one at Urban Outfitters, so that now both boots are size eight. Huzzah!

4. Bike ride to Trophy Cupcakes with Joe

5. Repaired holes in wall at Joe's house... HOW those holes were made, you'll just have to ask Joe

6. Recorded a song with Joe (I sang!)

7. Made tacos for dinner

8. Painted-by-numbers

And now I will sleep. Sleep very well.

I am born anew in your genius

I heart organizing things by color. Kind O.C.D., but whatevah.

So Comforting

There's something so comforting about spending quality time in your kitchen making a well-thought-out and delicious meal with someone you care about.

Gracias, Kelsey. You be a good friend of mine.

La Cucina

This kitchen is darling. And it totally fits with my post about coral red and turquoise things. I want it now.
