I have a duvet cover that I really, really like. But after using it for awhile realized I like the clean white slate of my down comforter even better. This organic pleated duvet cover might make both worlds meet up someplace in the middle with it’s mellow natural color and pin-tucked detailing.
Loving these Live Now posters by Eric Smith. They become even more wonderful when you know the full story…
I was recently diagnosed with cancer and have begun down the treatment road. I have learned to saturate each moment in front of me with all of my energy, as well as many other tremendous lessons. I decided to create a poster series with some quotes that have driven close to my spirit throughout this whole ordeal. Proceeds from the sale of these posters will be donated towards the Live Strong Foundation. Please purchase one, or three, and spread words of hope and inspiration.
I haven’t had time for lunch yet since I was out meeting with my realtor(!) but I guarantee if this Three Cheese Cake was sitting in front of me I’d the clean the plate so well you’d be able to just put it back in the cupboard.

Posted In recipesI can’t stand rude people, but those who are clever and say what they believe? Them I love. Erin Smith and her mixed media art I love. Erin’s work is the result of a mixed media process that includes original painting, digital imaging, vintage family photographs,
and the her own meandering prose. The finished product is a giclee print reproduced on water resistant canvas, handstretched on sturdy fir stretcher bars.

38 Pages is a sub-sect of Core77 where can you can post scanned pages of your sketchbook. It’s amazing to see what some artists are capable of while sitting bored in a meeting!
Al Jaffee’s fold-ins for Mad magazine, from the 1960s to the present, in interactive form.
I’d love to get my hands on a copy of Paul Lowe’s (of Sweet Paul fame) Slurp: Drinks and Light Fare, All Day, All Night. Full of recipes for both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages as well as suggested pairings to munch on while sipping away. The book covers all three daily meals and even hangover remedies for the day after you use the book! Nice touch.
Fried pies are a big deal here in Oklahoma for some reason. Probably because they’re delicious and one glance their way can clog an artery or two. Here’s an apple version for those of you brave enough to try them out!

Designer Sarah Finn takes the thinnest of veneers, and laser cuts them into two distinctive patterns for these incredible napkin rings – one with stars and the other with small “s” incisions. Each pattern is available in two different woods – a reddish mahogany and a white maple. They come in sets of six, flat-packed because you bend them into shape yourself. (If you look close enough you can see the little tabs…)

At least this is the motto I’m going to attempt to work with throughout another week of work craziness.
PS: Happy Belated Mother’s Day to all you mommas out there!
