Migon Kitchen Co.

One week ago today, Rachel from elephantine opened her brand new online store called Mignon Kitchen Co. Its full of wonderful and mostly beautiful little items that are perfect for cooking, gifting and eating. Rachel is one talented lady. Not only does she design pretty jewelry, she cooks yummy food with how to videos to match, she writes short stories that are so compelling that you are sad when they are over, writes one of my favorite blogs and now this. I am so excited for her. I just bought some chevron napkins, little measuring spoons, honey and some fancy sugar. Congrats Rachel!

Saturday's Wanderlust

Everyone must take a peak at one of my favorite Tumblrs called Saturday's Wanderlust. My best girl Julie writes it and she just oozes with sophistication, cool and beauty. She just wrote to me about a quote that has now become my favorite.....

"her lips drink water, but her heart drinks wine" e.e. cummings

Thanks Unstiched!

Lillian, from Unstiched was so nice to feature my kitchen renovation in her Kitchen Comforts series. She reached out to me right away with the kindest words and I am quite honored to have been asked. Thanks Lillian. Unstiched is composed of equally beautiful words and photos...do check it out.

NIght Circus

I am currently reading The Night Circus which is so amazing that I am making myself take my time. I love to read but have not had much time as of late to do so. I have to read a couple of pages before bed to go to sleep and usually don't get too far before my eyes start hurting. With that being said it takes me forever to get thru a book. I think books are wonderful gifts and Lillian from the beautiful blog Unstitched. has compiled the most charming list of books for every type of girl/reader. You much check it out. Hope everyone had a nice weekend.

Random Wednesday and Rikshaw Design

Catherine Fitzimmons from Rickshaw Design sent me an email the other day to see if I would like to partake in her new "Random Wednesdays" posts. Of course I jumped at the idea and put together some images that caught my eye and are being posted on Catherine's blog.
Check it out and her shop.

What's in her shop you ask?  Well, just the most lovely block printed, Indian inspired clothing and bedding. Goods just as wonderful as her...no wait she is more wonderful...inside in out. Catherine's blog is on my daily read list and I love reading what she has to say and what inspires her.

So, check it out and thanks so much Catherine for including me in all this "Random" fun!

Love and Thanks...Freebie
