H is for Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!
 
 
In preparation for Halloween I made some Candy Corn Cookies inspired by Camille Styles blog here.  They turned out pretty good and plentiful - just like piles of candy corn!
 
 
I've also been doing some other projects in my kitchen!  Recently I covered this odd corner countertop in my kitchen with Snow & Graham's Hydrangea wrap and I love it!  I just used some PVA glue to put the paper down and then put another coat over the top so I could wipe the counter down easily.  Then I used an exacto knife to cut around the edges.  A perfect solution when you are living in an apartment and can't have your dream kitchen just yet!
 
 
What do you think?
Have a happy Halloween!

is
for
Zebras.
 
I've always loved Scalamandre's flying zebra wallpaper - featured in The Royal Tenenbaums among other places.  I love a happy zebra popping up now and then!
 
 
 
 
Zebra scarves in bright colors!
 
 
 
 
Super cute red zebra tray from Furbish.
 
 
Some great pillows from Dwell - I think a duvet cover would be awesome!
 
 
 
 
Rifle Paper Co. makes an adorable zebra notepad - of course!

 is
for
 Fall.
Fall has arrived and the crisp air is feeling good around here.  Time for back to school and new romances.
Or a fall camping trip!
Time for a new pair of boots!
Break out the tweed!
 
Mussels, beer, and pommes frites - by a fire preferably - make a perfect fall dinner!
