I’ve never thought of pairing eggplant with something sweet, but that’s exactly what happens in this recipe for Pan Seared Eggplant with Ginger and Honey. It looks ridiculously simple and impressive at the same time.
Posted In recipesI found these awesome off-the-wall Halloween postcards by Heidi Burton a few weeks ago and have been dying to share. They embody exactly what October 31st is all about: embracing your quirkiness and bringing out your inner wild child! Her shop is closed until October 8th, but be sure and stop by to check everything out once she returns.
Pretty sure this is the intensity with which I was eating my cupcake at Sara Sara this afternoon. (The Key Lime for those of you wondering.) What food could delve into with this sort of abandon?
Posted In picture itwe glide high
above the trees
in the breeze,
my best friend n’ me.
we swing our legs
and make our plans
just like we always do.
there is no one
i’d rather sit with,
shop with, text with,
sing with, dance with,
drive with, eat with,
laugh with, be with.
just my best friend n’ me.
Delicious looking Eggplant Parmesan that, dare I say it, almost looks healthy for you?
Posted In recipesIllustrator David Fullarton laughs at our misfortunes. And then turns around and makes a profit off of them with his quirky, collaged illustrations. And I like him for it. If you do, too, you should probably pick up a copy of his book, I Can’t Apologise Enough.
Loving these incredible snowflake pumpkins Merrillee of mer mag and husband Jon created. Lucky for us they shared the how-to!
If I had super-toned thighs I’d be all about this tattoo! But I suppose the ones that I’ve got will have to suffice for now. Do you have a tattoo? If not, what kind do you want if you want one?

I first learned of PaPaYa a few years ago and have been impressed by their wide array of unique art and paper goods ever since. Founded by mother-daughter team Gina and Anahata Katkin in 2003, the company is centered around global culture, strong images and bright colors. Creative abandon is their company credo and I can’t think of anything better to live by.
PaPaYa launched a blog in August that’s full of daily inspiration from a group of talented contributors. It also boasts a large selection of resources to link to your heart’s content!
This week’s giveaway is the beautifully abstract Make Believe giclee (pronounced “gee-clay”) by artist Sabrina Ward Harrison. Giclee canvas prints are brimming over with vibrant colors and a richer feel than traditional art prints. Make Believe measures 14″ x 28″ and is mounted on sturdy panels, so comes ready to hang.
To Enter:

My grill is crappy. It’s of the camping variety, those that sit low and are small. I’ve been wanting to try grilling pizza all summer, but have lacked the patience. But now that things are cooling down and football season is kicking up, I think that this Rustic Eggplant Grilled Pizza just might be whispering sweet nothings in my ear. Hearty, delicious and perfectly fall.
