Memorable Monday

Hi  Everyone,

Is it me or are there other people out there who have files and files of beautiful rooms torn out of magazines to be referred to at a latter date?

For today’s Memorable Monday, I wanted to share a photo of an incredible kitchen that was featured in Veranda several years ago.   Bobby McAlpine was the architect of this home, and in my opinion, everything he creates is perfection.   I have always admired Bobby’s work, and I am looking forward to meeting him in person as he is the featured lecturer at Antiques at The Gardens show I have been blogging about lately.   He is creating a vignette (like Jeff and I are for the show) with Cindy Smith (Of Circa- I blogged about her amazing book several months back) for it as well.

Bobby is the author of  the critically acclaimed best-selling book, The Home Within Us, and will be available to sign copies of his book during the show.   If you don’t have a copy of his book, grab one as it will not disappoint.   FYI….   He has a second book coming out soon, too.

Hope you have a memorable Monday!

Memorable Monday

With the beginning of another school year, I’m feeling a little nostalgic. It is hard to believe Ann is a seventh grader, Ellie a freshman, and Lucy a junior. Where has time gone? That being said, the first day of school brings about somewhat of a rebirth. It offers an opportunity for new experiences, new relationships, new knowledge and new skills. Here’s to wishing my girls a memorable Monday.

Hope your Monday is memorable too!
