Divinely Doored Kitchen.

{door via Bliss Nor-Am}

I love the clean lines and insanely high ceilings in this kitchen. The flat-fronted cabinetry is clean and modern. But what strikes me the most, of course, is that scene-stealing metal and glass framed door leading out to the balcony. The entire structure is so delicate and strong in appearance that one almost doesn’t even notice the door. And when you do it’s like a slap in the face because it’s just that great. And that molding around the frame? Stunningly unexpected.

Masking Tape.

All of the masking tape from etsy shop nothingelegant is rocking my world. I’m loving this image of all the solid color stacked rolls, but check out the shop for some insanely cool patterned tapes as well!

The Daily Eat: Coconut Shrimp.


Shrimp is a very summery food to me. It’s both light and easy to make, given the right recipe. I hope you enjoy Shrimp Week!

The first time I had coconut shrimp was during my 21st birthday dinner with my parents. We were at a fairly upscale restaurant and they were skewered as a appetizer. And I proceeded to let one fly across the table as I tried to dislodge it from the skewer. In front of everyone. Awesome. Can’t wait to try out these Coconut Shrimp with Apricot Sweet Chili Dipping Sauce – sans skewers!

Falksalt.

The Falksalt site is in Swedish a forgeign language (German perhaps?), so all I can really discern is how pretty the packaging is and that it’s most likely delicious. Both of which are quite enough for me.
