Wednesday, July 27, 2011. So after a full day of work last Friday (might I remind you of my AMAZING job. Of fluffing and zhushing one of our sweet client's bookshelves I had a severe urge to run home and refluff my own bookshelves. Yes, I stayed home on a Friday night by myself with my books, knick knacks and magazines. And they whispered sweet nothings to me. Lonely? I spent the night re-color coordinating my books. Because what is the definition of joy without a little "color coding"? Links to this post.

Wednesday, October 5, 2011. No Need to File a Search Warrant. Not like any of you ungrateful beasts would considering I've been absent for well over a month (two? And I have yet to receive a knock on my door from a concerned officer in blue. Not like I'm pointing fingers (I am. At all of you) but I know I'm the only person to blame for my incredibly lapsed postings. But look. I do live:. Me and my incredible boss persons Bret and Mimi. You'll just be that much closer to me. And I know you want that.

Monday, June 30, 2014. Dinner Last Night.Mushroom Pasta. This dinner wasn't actually last night, but a few people asked me for this recipe after I posted it on Instagram. @mackenziepages if you'd like to follow me! This is what my family and I call "Mushroom Pasta". My parents are vegan so they do it with whole wheat pasta. It tastes great with white or wheat pasta, and I'm thinking about getting super ambitious and trying it with spaghetti squash. Easy peasy and SOOOO delish! This one in Fort Worth.

Tuesday, October 16, 2012. Hermes: Festival des Métiers. This past Sunday I attended the Hermes Festival des Métiers event. Festival des Métiers translates to "Festival of Crafts" and it was just that, very festive and very crafty! The carpet in the tent featured a repetitive motif of the craftsman's tools. That's a Birkin in the making! The silk screening tutorial was a favorite to all. A few inspiring shots. An itty bitty teeny weeny knitwear prototype! I can't. My brain would explode with the exce...

Thursday, July 19, 2012. Cement Tiles As The New Subway Tile? Here is an example of cement tile from Chateau Domingue. Used just as the backsplash behind the stove. This home was on the market here in Houston for some time and I always remember pulling up the listing and recognizing that gorgeous tile. Here, the tile is used as flooring.
