spoiled rotten....

and loving it. now i know that Christmas is not about the stuff, but it sure is a perk. here are some of my favorite gifties this year:








for my continuing education







a couple of these bad boys to punch up our couch

to keep my creative self challenged

a big metal B, so i don't forget my last name

and the green stapler of my dreams

thank you so very much and MERRY CHRISTMAS!

green with envy....

love these. they are eco-friendly and have some character. bromley will tell you that we have more than enough drinking glasses, i will tell you that one can never have too many.

i wish i may, i wish i might....

anthropologie, along with many other websites, has a wish list feature and i am taking full advantage. not that i expect people to buy me any or all of the things on these lists, but i figured it could help people with ideas if they are stumped. here are a few of the goodies i am loving at anthropologie this year.

growing on me....

me thinks me loves this little wallet. damn that orla kiely and her adorable (and slightly overpriced) styling. good thing someone gets a 40% discount.

merry and bright....

*as my dad would say "you snooze you lose." i waited too long and poof, gone. i've got a magnet on my fridge that states "she should have bought it when she saw it." why don't i ever listen to my own advise?

HAPPY HOLIDAYS! it's that time of year again: hot apple cider, chilly winter nights and a little Christmas wishing. i have had my eye on this pretty thing for a while now, but i think i might just suck it up and buy it for myself. it is on sale and who knows how long it will last? now there's the spirit.

GOT IT! USED IT! LOVE IT! Thank you Santa, Liz & Drake

spendy yes, just throwing it out there....

*if some Christmas elf is feeling crazy generous and wants
to really buy this, talk to bromley first. we can get 10% off
at Williams Sonoma until our anniversary.

all i want for Chrismas: part seven

Hangin' pretty in our kitchen!

it is time for a new calendar and it think it is also time to break away from my traditional "botanicals." i love this one....hint, hint.
