PINE

Always LOVE Oh Joy!’s “This & That” posts. Of course this turquoise feature is no different!

Seriously though how she finds these similarly inspired but completely different function items is beyond me - click the above link to check out an archive of this genius!

Not to mention I just clicked over to Need Supply Co. for the dress and its actually quite affordable, but dang it they don’t have my size… Hmm perhaps I need to go peruse for other options - see you in a bit!

I’m seriously not sure what I would do if I came across this pile of peonies. I mean that’s even just fun to say - try it - pile of peonies!! I’m pretty sure I would do one, if not both, of the following 1) go completely broke out of lack of self control and/or 2) dive right in!

Happy almost weekend & sunny day (finally!) - at least here in Beantown.

Also from the genius that is Oh Happy Day!

I basically think that step full of colorful streamers is the prettiest thing I’ve ever seen!

From Oh Happy Day!’s work for Anthology magazine.

Today I borrowed some imagery from Karen over at The Art of Doing Stuff.These are images of her family doctor, who is also a farmer,’s farm. Not even joking, how much do you love that?!?

If you don’t read The Art of Doing Stuff already, you basically need to start now - as in immediately. It’s my daily source of humor.

Yes it is indeed ridonculous how much I love rannunculous!

These lovelies are NO exception!

And along the way a new blog to check out….as if I needed another! :) Originally peeped at Ruffled…traced back to Sweet Eventide in its original content.

Those of you who know me well know that a good baguette is one of the 5 food items I’d bring with me to a desert island (delicious butter, lemonade, avocados and some good wine being the other 4… in case you were wondering). That is why this image is just heaven.

I know that I just posted about anemones, but I can’t help but share these gorgeous images from Sullivan Owen. I just love how delicate they are with their dark mysterious centers. Ah divine!

In the spirit of round-ups how about a spirits round-up!

Its important to note the main criteria of this round-up was how pretty the bottle was, basically nothing to do with the taste of the contents inside but I mean with a label like these how could they be bad?

Love Joy vodka - handcrafted in small batches from Integrity Spirits. With all these fabulous labels, why choose just one?

Beyond just the gorgeous packaging & branding St-Germain Elderflower Liquer is even more appealing when you realize how it is crafted. “It is in the foothills of the Alps for only a few days in late spring, where we are able to gather the delicate blossoms to make our liqueur. In order to acquire enough of the flowers during the short 2- to 3- week window of blossoming, French farmers are organized to deliver sacks of the elderflower blossoms to local depots, some using specially rigged bicycles. “

Can you even stand it??? Also you might care to know my favorite drink at my local watering hole features St. Germaine… its called the Dorchester - yum!

In my personal opinion gin = blech. However a Hendrick’s Gin bottle on the other hand, this I could have around!

Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction’s ROOT & SNAP, Root Beer flavored spirits & Ginger Snap flavored spirits…oh the possibilities! And pretty possibilities at that all the better!
