Squash Blossom

I've wanted this necklace for years, but have put off buying one. I'm thinking about all the crisp button-up shirts and jeans I can wear it with!

Napa - Chappellet Winery


We were recently in Napa on a business trip for my husband's company (he's in the spirits, beer and wine industry) and had the chance to visit several wineries including Etude, Rombauer, Chappellet, Beringer, Stags' Leap and Buena Vista. I'll share more photos in future posts. A highlight of our trip was the tour and dinner with Orvil Chappellet at his beautiful winery. A Magical evening.

Pass me a glass of Rose'

Just not any rose'. I was recently introduced to Angie and Brad's Chateau Miraval Cotes de Provence. It's my new favorite Summer wine.

Gracias Madre

I go out to LA about every 5-6 weeks and was so happy last time to be taken to Gracias Madre by my good friend Tifani.  100% plant-based Mexican food.  You'll never miss your beef, chicken or carnitas! I'm a convert.

Peter Dunham


He's been a favorite LA designer  of mine for a long time.I tuned in just to see him when we made guest appearances on Million Dollar Decorator. There's a great spread in Coastal Living of a beach home in Hermosa Beach that he just finished. Enjoy the eye candy!

Maybe Next Year...

I missed it again! Last time held at Manolo Blank exec's Arethusa Farm, the sale moved this year to the Bantam Firehouse. All proceeds go to college scholarships for local kids. They make me proud to have grown up in Litchfield County.
