Matt asked me what I wanted for Mother’s Day and I told him “something I can only give myself” and he said “what’s that?” and I replied, “time off!” So I’m checking out early this week, taking today and tomorrow for a little extra rest and relaxation! Oh, and a nice brunch in Sonoma on Sunday was my second request at one of my favorite restaurants (read about the perfect day trip to Sonoma here).

Meanwhile here are my latest articles over at BH&G.

Wishing all of you moms a very

Happy Mother’s Day !

It’s been pouring down rain the last few days in my town but that’s alright with me since it’s given me a great excuse to stay indoors and finish up all the Christmas decorating!  Some fun and festive scenes will be featured this week but first here are a few articles for your Sunday reading… the latest posts over at my Better Homes & Gardens blog, enjoy! 

Also some other news (and just in time for the gift giving season) once a month I curate a shopping guide over at the new user friendly source for all things home: BH&G Shop.   Two of my guides have been posted, the first is dedicated to all things tabletop and the second has all the essentials for a cozy winter day spent indoors!   I hope you’ll find something you love.   Stay warm!
