Apple peeler, corer and slicer from William Sonoma
1. My new apple peeler corer slicer from William Sonoma – cut down on apple prep time for apple pie making by a million times. Love it!

Besides being truly thankful for my amazing family and great friends, here are 5 very random things I am thankful for on Thanksgiving morning 2009. Photos all taken during my baking marathon today.

Silver Cuisinart mixer from William Sonoma
3. My new mixer by Cuisinart also from William Sonoma – Before I bought this mixer yesterday, I was mixing everything by hand; I would spend hours stirring and mixing and mashing things as if I was cooking in the 19th century. This made Thanksgiving pie prep so much easier!

Homemade sweet potato pie
4. Sweet potato pie is done – Thanks Auntie J. for filling me in on some baking tips this morning over the phone!

5. How clueless my dog is at times – makes me laugh. I saw this going on outside my kitchen window this morning. Notice the neighbor’s cat right above him – he certainly didn’t!

Now am off to my sister’s house for a lovely Thanksgiving filled with family and cheer. Hope you are having a great day!

    That apple pie – one of my favourites – looks scruptious! And I love the look on the cat’s face, peaking over the plant 🙂

    Mr. B you are truly adorable – but that aside – what are the gorgeous blue stones that are inbetween your slate slabs? I love that look!

    Hi Lori! Thanks for the pie compliment. Cat is not mine…belongs to the neighbor. Clueless one, the dog, is mine…hmmmmm…wonder if that is telling at all?

    Linda, think these are just river rocks. Don’t know really. They seem to miraculously disappear each year and each year I tell the gardener, “Can you please bring in some of those rocks…whatever they are…”. I’ll ask the gardener. Please stand by! xo

    Sooo funny about your dog….it seems my dogs are the opposite, they ALWAYS know where my neighbors cats are. I don’t know how they DO it! :)))))

A beautiful table isn’t just about aesthetics. It’A beautiful table isn’t just about aesthetics. It’s about how it makes people feel.
A thoughtfully styled tablescape can:
• Make guests feel instantly welcome.
• Encourage people to linger a little longer.
• Turn an ordinary meal into a memorable experience.
• Reflect your personal style without saying a word.
The best part? It doesn’t have to be elaborate. A few layers, fresh flowers, candlelight, or beautiful dinnerware can completely change the atmosphere. 💐
Because the most memorable gatherings aren’t always the fanciest. They’re the ones where everyone feels at home.
What’s one detail you always include when setting your table?

A — Warm wood beams and stone
B — Light and airy with floor-to-ceiling windows
A great vaulted ceiling doesn’t just add height. It changes how a room feels entirely. The best ones make you stop, look up, and never want to leave.
Save this for your next build or renovation inspo. 🖤

Before you start moving furniture, ask yourself thBefore you start moving furniture, ask yourself these three questions:
Does this improve the room’s function?
Does it create a better focal point?
Does it make the space easier to walk through?
If the answer is “no” to all three, maybe it’s just the rearranging itch talking. 😅
Save this for the next time you’re tempted to move every piece of furniture in your house.
This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and k This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and kept us there.
A 90s home in Amman, Jordan, entirely remodelled by local artisans. Neo-Florentine bones, Levant-eclectic sensibility, arched passageways, and a flea-market-meets-commissioned-art collection that makes every wall feel intentional.
What makes it work: restraint where you’d expect excess, and boldness where you’d expect safety.
This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤
Save this, it’s a masterclass in culturally rooted design.

A — The kitchen

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤
