<\/a><\/p>\nToday we are headed into the city to meet our two oldest sons for an early dinner and going to a few art galleries, which should be fun:)? We have had a nice weekend, dinner with friends and a fair amount of time for some relaxation. Here are my Sunday seven……<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n 1. MY MOST POPULAR INSTAGRAM PICTURE . I really didn’t “get” instagram up until about 8 months ago then I was encouraged to get on the bandwagon and haven’t looked back since. It’s fun and for those who like instant gratification, it’s a quick fix for all kinds of beauty and inspiration.<\/p>\n The other day I posted this picture and it received the all time highest “likes”with 500! (does this make me sound like some impressionable 16 year old)! Click here to follow me<\/a> on Instagram.<\/p>\n 2. TULIP LOVE. Spring makes me so happy, with the abundance of flowers in all their many colors..whats not to love! I have been filling my own home with lots of pretty spring tulips, because nothing says spring like a vase of tulips!! I am especially loving the variegated versions in many different colors…..<\/p>\n Did a post the other day on tulips and snowstorms showing how I added them to various arrangements, click here to see<\/a><\/p>\n Added them to my kitchen<\/p>\n Then I played around with my foyer chest vignette, wanting to give it a more “spring like” feeling by adding the blossoms…<\/p>\n But then I added the small vases of variagated tulips and fell in love with the way it looked, makes me want to throw a spring party!<\/p>\n 3. INSTAGRAMS OF INTEREST. You know how much I love to share what I am loving on Instagram! This week the beauty and inspiration continues to wow and amaze me…..definitely drawn to those that feature flowers! Here are my top picks of the week-<\/p>\n 4. MY MONOGRAMMED NAPKINS. I still get so excited every time I get in new orders for my monogrammed napkins! Even though they are not even for me, I feel like it’s Christmas:) Here is a look at some of the beauties that recently arrived and are getting dolled up to be shipped out. Click here to see my monogrammed napkins online<\/a>…..<\/p>\n And my own newest napkins which I am smitten over….<\/p>\n 5. A RECIPE WORTH SHARING. You know I love to share my recipes when I am really loving something. I try to experiment on average once a week and try something new.<\/p>\n This was a hit with my family….it was easy, so delicious and hearty but not too heavy. I served it with scalloped potatoes and asparagus tips and a great big ceaser salad. Yum yum! I will be making this again sooner than later, a new staple in our household. The only thing I did was add much more of the lemon squeezed the juices of 2 whole lemons over the finished dish.? Click here for the recipe over at Jo Cooks.<\/a><\/p>\n 6. MAJOR LOWER LEVEL PROGRESS! I am excited about how things are really moving along now. The next time you see this space, it will be an entire post on the completed project! Counter tops\/appliances getting installed this coming week, bathrooms will get buttoned up in the next week or so (waiting on vanities\/faucets,etc…) It is finally starting to shape up and now I am just starting to think about furniture, barstools, etc……<\/p>\n So the bar is really coming along! Counterops and ant. mirror will be added within the next week to ten days, doors and shelves and voila it will be done!<\/p>\n This is the vanity I am doing for the powder room (in white) the other one only came with carerra marble top which did not match the floors<\/p>\n The gym\/guest bath coming along, love this floor<\/p>\n This is the little powder room floor, not yet grouted, love the tile with its pearl framing the marble hexagons<\/p>\n Thi 7. THE SWEETEST GIFT FROM MY READER. I must say I am continuously touched and inspired by my readers. From them sharing their beautiful homes with me (click here to see my evolving online gallery of my customers homes<\/a>) to the incredibly kind emails I get to getting goodies in the mail..they really are the best!!<\/p>\n I got in something this week that I fell head over heels in love with. The first are the cutest salt and peppers i have ever seen! Mini ginger jar slat and peppers. I am in LOVE with these!!!!!! Thank you thank you Laura, you know how much I am going to enjoy them. I already ordered a few more from Pier One, who knew!?
