Baked in the South

I loved this quote from Julia Child. She is my favorite chef of all time! So I decided to make a chalkboard frame for my kitchen I purchased this painting at a thrift store for $9.00 I spray painted the frame with gold spraypaint and painted over the painting with this chalkboard paint! Printed out the quote from my printer I colored chalk on the back of the paper and taped it to the chalkboard, then traced the letters with a ballpoint pen. The letters show up very light, then just fill them in with chalk! I just love how it turned out!!!! Linking up with these lovelies!   Craft-O-Maniac     C.R.A.F.T.

As you are probably aware, I am obsessed with someday having a home in the Hamptons.  Well, I think I may have found the one!  Completely renovated in 2010 and updated with top of the line appliances and designer lighting and fixtures, new fireplaces, custom paneling and hardware, skylights and Ralph Lauren chic beachy white furnishings and flat screen TV's throughout. Beautiful sunset views across a 22 acre preserve.. High ceilings, and interior palm trees. Living room tastefully done with fireplace and French doors that open onto classic country porch. 4 comforting bedrooms including elegant master suite with sauna, 4 1/2 baths, luxurious high definition media room, a new heated gunite pool. Nestled in the bucolic Dune Alpin fields, you can watch the grazing horses or play a set on the community tennis courts.  I love everything about it!!!!!

I love these new "Big Pony" polo shirts from Ralph Lauren.  My boyfriend got me one for Christmas, but now I want one in every color!  The original polo is a staple in my closet.  I wear them just about every day!  The blue with green is my favorite! not sure about these pants the pink & green is cute too! I do like the large belts!
